# Finalize Autoresearch

Turn a noisy autoresearch branch into clean, independent branches — one per logical change, each starting from the merge-base.

## Step 1 — Analyze and Propose Groups

1. Read `.auto/log.jsonl` (legacy: `autoresearch.jsonl`). Filter to **kept** experiments only.
2. Read `.auto/prompt.md` (legacy: `autoresearch.md`) for context.
3. Expand all short commit hashes to full hashes: `git rev-parse <short_hash>`
4. Get the merge-base: `git merge-base HEAD main`
5. For each kept commit, get the diff stat (use `$BASE..<commit>` for the first, `<prev_kept>..<commit>` for subsequent).
6. Group kept commits into logical changesets:
   - **Preserve application order.** Group N comes before Group N+1.
   - **No two groups may touch the same file.** Each branch is applied to merge-base independently — overlapping files would conflict. If two groups touch the same file, merge them into one group.
