git-flow-manager — Claude Code subagent: runs Git Flow

Q: How do I install git-flow-manager in Claude Code?

Run `npx claude-code-templates@latest --agent git/git-flow-manager`. The subagent file lands at `.claude/agents/git-flow-manager.md`.

Q: What is required to open a pull request?

The subagent uses the `gh` CLI, so it has to be installed and authenticated. It pushes the branch to the remote first.

A Claude subagent that creates Git Flow branches, merges them, tags releases and opens pull requests. Useful when the branching scheme is strict but nobody follows it by hand.

What git-flow-manager does

Three branch types are covered: feature/* off develop, release/* off develop, hotfix/* off main. Before branching, the subagent checks that the name matches the convention and that the base branch is the right one. When work is done it merges where the scheme says: a feature into develop only, a release or hotfix into main and develop with a tag.

Commit messages get rewritten into Conventional Commits using feat, fix, docs, style, refactor, test and chore. A release bumps the version in package.json, builds CHANGELOG.md from the commit history and opens a PR with the gh CLI. Merge conflicts are walked through step by step: conflicting files are shown, both sides explained, a fix proposed.

The subagent works with Read, Bash, Grep, Glob, Edit and Write. Pull request generation needs an installed and authenticated gh, otherwise that step fails. A direct push to main or develop is treated as an error, and you get a branch suggestion instead.

What it helps with

start a feature branch from an up-to-date develop with remote tracking set
merge a release into main and develop and tag it
ship a hotfix from main without dropping the change from develop
keep commit messages in Conventional Commits format
build a CHANGELOG and PR body from commit history

Example prompts for the agent

Create feature/user-authentication from develop and push it
Finish release/v1.2.0: merge into main and develop, then tag it
Resolve the conflicts in this merge and commit the result
