Lifecycle prompts

Onboard BaseCoat

feature: onboard this repository to BaseCoat using a pinned release. Start with a dry run, preserve repository-owned files, validate installed assets, and open a reviewable pull request.

Refresh BaseCoat

chore: refresh this repository to BaseCoat vX.Y.Z using its .basecoat.yml policy. Show the drift first, apply only managed-file changes, run validation, and open a pull request.

Remove BaseCoat

chore: remove BaseCoat-managed assets from this repository. Use the manifest and sync state to identify managed files, preserve repository-owned customizations, show a dry-run removal plan, and require approval before deletion.

Sample outputs

These examples show the expected shape, not live repository results.

Onboarding output example
