Push current branch to remote.
When to invoke
User says: "/push", "push my branch", "push this up", "get my branch onto GitHub", or needs the current branch pushed to origin before opening a PR.
Not this: ready to open the PR itself → /pr (run after push).
Execution boundary
This is a deterministic Git transport operation. Run it inline; do not spend a
Loom/model-routing call or delegate it to another agent.
Before anything else
Resolve the base with bash bin/base-branch.sh (add the managed repo name when
applicable); it prints {base} or fails, in which case stop.
Check git branch --show-current. If on a protected branch ({base}, develop,
main, or master):
→ Use the resolved base branch (default "develop")
→ Create a working branch: git fetch origin "{base}" --quiet, then
git checkout --no-track -b dev/{author}/{topic-slug} "origin/{base}"
→ Tell the user: "Creating a working branch for this..." — never mention git commands to the user.
→ Then proceed with the push.
What to do
- Push current branch to origin
- Set upstream if first push
