dev-spec-kit-finish — landing a branch is a ritual, not a vibe

Entry is EARNED, the menu is FIXED, destruction is TYPED, and every step lands in the journal.

1. Entry gate — fresh evidence only

Run, in order, and SHOW the output (after any session break: dev-spec-kit resume FIRST):

1. dev-spec-kit graph build — MUST exit 0 (every proof green at the current tree). Stale/red → run dev-spec-kit drift, fix, and re-enter. Old green output does not count; the evidence must be fresh.
2. dev-spec-kit verify — MUST exit 0 (Build ALL + every configured kind green, journaled on the current tree). The PR gate refuses without it.
3. dev-spec-kit status — all tasks for this feature DONE.
4. dev-spec-kit pr --title "<title>" — body generated, gate verdict green. If any step fails: STOP. Report what blocked. Do not present the menu.

2. The menu — present exactly these 4 options, nothing open-ended

1. Merge locally — merge to the base branch, verify the suite on the merged result.
2. Push + PR — push the branch and open the PR with the generated body (dev-spec-kit pr --create).
3. Keep as-is — leave the branch for later; record why in the journal.
4. Discard — destructive. To proceed the human MUST type discard exactly. Anything else aborts.

Do not add commentary, recommendations, or a fifth option. Wait for the choice.

3. Execute + cleanup (option-conditional)

• Merge: merge → re-run the suite on the merged result → only then clean up.
• Push+PR / Keep: the worktree and branch SURVIVE (work may continue).
• Discard (typed confirmation received): delete branch; remove the worktree ONLY if it lives under .worktrees/ or .claude/worktrees/ — provenance check: never clean up a workspace dev-spec-kit did not create.
• dev-spec-kit approve <taskIds> --note "<the human's words>" if the human gate wasn't recorded yet.

4. Journal the landing

Every executed step is already audit-logged (cli.run); close with dev-spec-kit log -n 10 so the human sees the recorded trail: graph green → approval → PR/merge → cleanup. The ritual is complete only when the journal shows it.
