Fix merge conflicts

Trigger

Branch has unresolved merge conflicts and needs a reliable path to a buildable state.

Workflow

  1. Detect all conflicting files from git status and conflict markers.
  2. Resolve each conflict with minimal, correctness-first edits.
  3. Prefer preserving both sides when safe. Otherwise, choose the variant that compiles and keeps public behavior stable.
  4. Regenerate lockfiles with package manager tools instead of hand-editing.
  5. Run compile, lint, and relevant tests.
  6. Stage resolved files and summarize key decisions.

Guardrails

  • Keep changes minimal and readable.
  • Do not leave conflict markers in any file.
  • Avoid broad refactors while resolving conflicts.
  • Do not push or tag during conflict resolution.

Output

  • Files resolved
  • Notable resolution choices
  • Build/test outcome
