After using the commit-commands:commit-push-pr skill to create a branch, commit, push, and open a PR, the desktop app displays a chip/notification for the open branch. Once the PR is merged and the branch is deleted (both local and remote), the chip remains visible even after fully quitting and restarting the desktop app.

Description

After using the commit-commands:commit-push-pr skill to create a branch, commit, push, and open a PR, the desktop app displays a chip/notification for the open branch. Once the PR is merged and the branch is deleted (both local and remote), the chip remains visible even after fully quitting and restarting the desktop app.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Use the commit-push-pr skill to create a branch and open a PR
  2. Merge the PR via gh pr merge
  3. Delete the local and remote branch (git branch -d + git push origin --delete)
  4. Quit and relaunch the Claude desktop app
  5. The branch chip is still visible as if it needs a PR created

Expected behavior

The chip should clear once the branch is deleted and/or the PR is merged, or at least after a full app restart.

Actual behavior

Chip persists across app restarts. git branch -a and gh pr list confirm nothing is open.

Environment

  • Claude desktop app (macOS)
  • Skill: commit-commands:commit-push-pr
