Use when the user wants to combine/consolidate several GitHub branches into one integration branch, merge a feature branch into a base (main/develop), or reconcile divergent branches that touched the same code — and wants conflicts handled intelligently rather than by hand. The merge direction (`<source>` INTO `<destination>`) is confirmed before anything is touched; the base branch is never touched directly and nothing is pushed without explicit approval. NOT for a single trivial fast-forward, or non-git tasks.
