Keep the reason for a branch change with the review
For maintainers reviewing changes to shared Git branches.
A force push or branch deletion can affect work other people still depend on. A short command does not explain the consequences. Describe the proposed branch change in a Work task, assign its owner and link the pull request. Add the review decision to the task discussion.

- Update the task when the work changes so the next reader has the current state.
Before you rely on it
Command interception depends on your client's hooks or proxy; see the setup guide for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other MCP clients.
- Specify tasks do not enforce Git branch protection. Configure protected branches and required reviews on your Git host.
- Work must be enabled for the selected account, and you need permission to read or change the task. Security access and device setup are separate.
