description: Shared branch creation and verification logic for sequential and parallel task execution - handles git operations, HEAD verification, and MODE-specific behavior

Phase Task Verification

When to Use

Invoked by sequential-phase-task and parallel-phase-task after task implementation to create and verify git-spice branch.

Parameters

  • •RUN_ID: 6-char run ID (e.g., "8c8505")
  • •TASK_ID: Phase-task (e.g., "1-1")
  • •TASK_NAME: Short name (e.g., "create-verification-skill")
  • •COMMIT_MESSAGE: Full commit message
  • •MODE: "sequential" or "parallel"

The Process

Step 1: Stage and create branch

bash
git add .
gs branch create {RUN_ID}-task-{TASK_ID}-{TASK_NAME} -m "{COMMIT_MESSAGE}"

Step 2: Verify based on MODE

MODE: sequential - Verify HEAD points to expected branch:

bash
CURRENT=$(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD)
EXPECTED="{RUN_ID}-task-{TASK_ID}-{TASK_NAME}"
[ "$CURRENT" = "$EXPECTED" ] || { echo "ERROR: HEAD=$CURRENT, expected $EXPECTED"; exit 1; }

MODE: parallel - Detach HEAD (makes branch accessible in parent repo):

bash
git switch --detach
CURRENT=$(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD)
[ "$CURRENT" = "HEAD" ] || { echo "ERROR: HEAD not detached ($CURRENT)"; exit 1; }

Rationalization Table

RationalizationWhy It's Wrong
"Verification is optional"Silent failures lose work
"Skip detach in parallel mode"Breaks worktree cleanup
"Branch create errors are obvious"Silent failures aren't detected until cleanup fails
"Detach can happen later"Cleanup runs in parent repo - branch must be accessible
"HEAD verification adds overhead"<100ms cost prevents hours of lost work debugging

Error Handling

git add fails:

  • •No changes to stage: Error is expected - task implementation failed or incomplete
    • •Check if task was actually implemented
    • •Verify files were modified in expected locations
    • •Do NOT continue with branch creation
  • •Permission issues: Git repository permissions corrupted
    • •Check file ownership: ls -la .git
    • •Verify worktree is accessible
    • •Escalate to orchestrator

gs branch create fails:

  • •Duplicate branch name: Branch already exists
    • •Check existing branches: git branch | grep {RUN_ID}-task-{TASK_ID}
    • •Verify task wasn't already completed
    • •May indicate resume scenario - escalate to orchestrator
  • •Git-spice errors: Repository state issues
    • •Run gs repo sync to fix state
    • •Verify git-spice initialized: gs ls
    • •Check for uncommitted changes blocking operation
  • •Invalid branch name: Name contains invalid characters
    • •Verify RUN_ID is 6-char alphanumeric
    • •Verify TASK_NAME contains only alphanumeric + hyphens
    • •Do NOT sanitize - escalate to orchestrator (indicates data corruption)

HEAD verification fails (sequential mode):

  • •Expected: gs branch create should checkout new branch automatically
  • •Actual: Still on previous branch or detached HEAD
    • •Indicates git-spice behavior change or bug
    • •Do NOT continue - task is not properly staged
    • •Escalate to orchestrator with exact HEAD state

HEAD verification fails (parallel mode):

  • •Expected: git switch --detach should detach HEAD
  • •Actual: Still on branch after detach command
    • •Indicates git version issue or repository corruption
    • •Do NOT continue - cleanup will fail to access branch
    • •Escalate to orchestrator with git version: git --version
