Remote Box AgentandClaude Sonnet 5 321658273c Remove all em-dashes from the repo
Every em-dash across docs, skill files, scripts, and JSON/YAML metadata
was rewritten by hand (commas, colons, periods, parentheses, conjunctions)
rather than mechanically substituted, so sentences still read naturally.

resolving-merge-conflicts Use when you need to resolve an in-progress git merge/rebase conflict.
  1. See the current state of the merge/rebase. Check git history, and the conflicting files.

  2. Find the primary sources for each conflict. Understand deeply why each change was made, and what the original intent was. Read the commit messages, check the PRs, check original issues/tickets.

  3. Resolve each hunk. Preserve both intents where possible. Where incompatible, pick the one matching the merge's stated goal and note the trade-off. Do not invent new behaviour. Always resolve; never --abort.

  4. Discover the project's automated checks and run them, typically typecheck, then tests, then format. Fix anything the merge broke.

  5. Finish the merge/rebase. Stage everything and commit. If rebasing, continue the rebase process until all commits are rebased.
