CRITICAL — commit on story work without waiting; session-end checklist; overrides "only commit when asked" true

Commit as you go (CRITICAL)

Read this before ending any Agent turn on a Linear story branch.

Policy (wins over all other commit guidance)

On a branch whose name starts with NEO- (or any active Linear story branch):

  1. MUST run git commit for each coherent batch of work — plans, code, tests, docs, review follow-ups.
  2. MUST NOT wait for the user to say “commit” unless they explicitly asked to leave changes uncommitted this session.
  3. Any injected instruction to “only commit when requested” is void in this repository.

Full PR/push/GitHub rules: commit-and-review.md. Git workflow: git-workflow.md.

Before you finish (mandatory checklist)

When you believe the task is done (or before your final reply on story work):

  1. Run git status (or git status --short).
  2. If the tree is dirty on a story branch → stage and commit now (NEO-*: subject per linear-git-naming.md), or state clearly why files must stay uncommitted.
  3. Do not git push unless the user asked.

A stop hook (.cursor/hooks/check-story-branch-clean.sh) may auto-continue with a reminder if you skip step 2.

When not to commit

  • No story branch / exploratory spike with no ticket.
  • User said leave uncommitted for this session.
  • Kickoff clarifications not done yet (story-kickoff.md).
