When this command is invoked:

1. Check current state

# Get current branch
git branch --show-current

# Check if there are uncommitted changes
git status --porcelain

# Check if branch has a remote tracking branch
git rev-parse --abbrev-ref --symbolic-full-name @{u} 2>/dev/null

# Check if there's an existing PR for this branch
gh pr list --head $(git branch --show-current) --json number,url,title

2. If there are uncommitted changes

• Stage all changes: git add -A
• Create a commit with the provided message, or generate one based on the changes
• Use this commit format:

git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
<commit message>

Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
EOF
)"

3. If no PR exists for this branch

• Push the branch: git push -u origin $(git branch --show-current)
• Create a new PR using:

gh pr create --title "<title based on branch/changes>" --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
## Summary
<brief summary of changes>

## Changes
<bullet points of what changed>

• Push the new commits: git push
• Report that commits were pushed to the existing PR

• Create a new PR if one doesn't exist
