 When `commit.expectedBranch` is set (e.g. `main`), `assist commit` prints a prominent warning if HEAD is on any other branch before committing — so work committed (and pushed) on a stray branch in a repo that lands directly on the expected branch isn't silently orphaned. The warning is non-blocking: the commit still proceeds. With the key unset, behaviour is unchanged and no branch check runs.

 ## netcap browser extension
 
 `assist netcap` only runs the receiver; the browser side is a raw Manifest V3 extension (no build step) under `netcap-extension/`. A MAIN-world content script patches `fetch`/`XMLHttpRequest` to capture `{url, method, status, requestBody, responseBody, timestamp}`, relays each entry to the background service worker (`window.postMessage` → `chrome.runtime.sendMessage`), and the background worker POSTs it to the receiver. The XHR patch reads the response across every `responseType` (`json`, `blob`, `arraybuffer`, `document`, not just `text`) — LinkedIn's voyager GraphQL calls use `responseType: "json"`, which exposes no `responseText`, so reading `responseText` alone captured those bodies empty. Forwarding happens in the background context, so the page's CSP (`connect-src`) never blocks it — the limitation that killed the earlier console-paste approach.
