Research direction

Start by reproducing the flow from workspace creation through the commit button using a pull request from a fork. Trace how the PR branch and remote are selected during the push, then verify that a commit is sent back to the fork's branch rather than the user's origin.

Bug description

If I create a workspace from a PR, and that PR belongs to an outside contributor (i.e. its from a fork), when I push a commit Polyscope/Claude will push it to my own repo's origin (with the same branch name used in the PR) rather than back to the fork's branch.

Steps to reproduce
  • Create workspace from pull request. The PR must be from a fork.
  • Make a change
  • Click the commit button
