Branch Guard

Prevents accidental commits on main. Forces branches and worktrees. Your AI is helpful. Sometimes too helpful. It sees a file, fixes it, and commits… straight to main. No branch. No PR. No review. Just a direct write to the branch that matters most. Branch Guard stops that. Every write, edit, and destructive command gets checked. If you’re on main, it blocks the action and tells you exactly what to do instead.

​
What It Does

  • Blocks all writes on the main branch
  • Catches Write, Edit, and destructive git commands
  • Figures out the repo from the file path, not the working directory
  • Works no matter where your AI started its session

​
Extra Protection

  • Workflow teaching. Error messages include the full development process. Your AI learns the right way from the error itself.
  • Worktree path warning. Warns when git worktree add creates outside the _worktrees/ directory.
  • Dogfood cooldown. After wip-release, blocks npm install -g for 5 minutes so you test the install prompt first.
  • Dangerous flag blocking. --no-verify and git push --force are blocked on every branch.
  • Shared state allowlist. CLAUDE.md, SHARED-CONTEXT.md, and daily logs stay writable on main.
