Show a comprehensive overview of all branches, their PR status, and active worktrees.

Usage

/branch-status

Process

1. Fetch Latest

bash

git fetch --all --prune

2. List All Local Branches

bash

git branch -vv
git for-each-ref --sort=-committerdate --format='%(refname:short) %(committerdate:iso8601) %(committerdate:relative)' refs/heads

Capture: branch name, last commit, tracking status (ahead/behind/gone), last commit date.

3. List Worktrees

bash

git worktree list

4. List Open PRs

bash

gh pr list --json number,title,headRefName,state,url,isDraft,reviewDecision --limit 50

5. Check Merge Status

For each local branch (excluding main), check if merged:

bash

git branch --merged origin/main

6. Present Report

Organize branches into categories:

## Branch Status

### Active Worktrees
| Directory | Branch | Status |
|-----------|--------|--------|
| ~/.holophyte-dev/feature-x | feat/feature-x | 2 ahead of main |

### Branches with Open PRs
| Branch | PR | Status | Review |
|--------|-----|--------|--------|
| feat/feature-y | #12 — Add feature Y | Open | Approved |
| feat/feature-z | #13 — Fix bug Z | Draft | Pending |

### Merged (safe to clean up)
- `feat/old-feature` — merged into main, remote deleted

### Stale (no PR, not merged)
- `feat/abandoned` — last commit 3 weeks ago, 5 ahead of main

### Current Branch
`main` — clean, up to date with origin/main

Notes

•Always run git fetch --all --prune first to get accurate remote status
•Flag branches where the remote has been deleted (gone in tracking status)
•For branches with PRs, show the review decision (approved, changes requested, pending)
•Sort stale branches by last commit date
•This is read-only — never delete branches or worktrees automatically
•If the user wants to clean up, suggest /worktree-cleanup for worktrees (destructive — removes worktrees and deletes branches, requires confirmation)
