Inspect local and remote branches, pull requests, commits, and worktrees. Recover valuable work and clean everything stale until the repository is current and organized.

Steps

Inventory local and remote branches, open and recently closed pull requests, unmerged commits, and registered worktrees.
Classify each item as current, valuable but unfinished, superseded, merged, abandoned, or uncertain, recording evidence and ownership.
Recover valuable changes into an appropriate current branch before removing any stale reference.
Clean only proven stale state, fetch and prune safely, then rerun the inventory until every remaining item is intentional.
