+## Push Workflows
+
+Onyx supports two push workflows to match different development styles:
+
+### Single-Branch Mode (Default) - Recommended for AI Development
+
+```bash
+onx push
+```
+
+**When to use:**
+- Default for all standard feature development
+- When creating traditional pull requests
+- For AI-assisted development sessions
+- When you want a clean remote repository UI
+
+**What happens:**
+- Pushes workstream as ONE branch named after the workstream
+- Example: `milestone-4` branch contains all commits
+- Remote UI shows single branch per workstream (clean)
+- Perfect for creating GitHub/Gitea pull requests
+
+**AI Development Guidance:**
+Use this mode by default. It provides the cleanest integration with standard Git workflows and PR creation tools.
+
+### Stacked Diffs Mode (Advanced)
+
+```bash
+onx push --stacked
+```
+
+**When to use:**
+- Large, complex features requiring incremental review
+- When each commit needs independent review/approval
+- Meta/Google-style stacked diff workflows
+- When explicitly requested by the user
+
+**What happens:**
+- Pushes EACH commit as a separate branch
+- Example: `onyx/workstreams/milestone-4/commit-1`, `commit-2`, etc.
+- Remote UI shows multiple branches (one per commit)
+- Each branch can have its own pull request
+
+**AI Development Guidance:**
+Only use when specifically requested or when the feature is complex enough to warrant incremental review. The additional branches may clutter the remote UI.

 ## Development Guidelines
 
+### IMPORTANT: Dogfooding Policy
+
+**This repository uses Onyx for its own development.** All development work MUST use Onyx commands exclusively:
+
+- ✅ **Use `onx save -m "message"`** to commit changes (NOT `git commit`)
+- ✅ **Use `onx new <name>`** to create feature branches (NOT `git checkout -b`)
+- ✅ **Use `onx switch <name>`** to switch workstreams (NOT `git checkout`)
+- ✅ **Use `onx sync`** to update from remote (NOT `git pull`)
+- ✅ **Use `onx push`** to push to remote (NOT `git push`)
+- ✅ **Use `onx undo`** to undo operations (NOT `git reset`)
+- ✅ **Use `onx list`** to view workstreams (NOT `git branch`)
+
+**Exception:** Only use `git` commands for:
+- Initial remote setup (`git remote add`)
+- Creating pull requests via GitHub CLI (`gh pr create`)
+- Inspecting low-level Git state when debugging Onyx itself
+
+This dogfooding validates our user experience and ensures Onyx works correctly for real-world development.
+
 ### Code Style
 - Follow Go conventions and idioms
 - Use structured logging (planned: zap or logrus)

+## Push Workflows: Single-Branch vs Stacked Diffs
+
+Onyx supports two push workflows to match your team's needs:
+
+### Single-Branch Mode (Default) - Recommended
+
+**Perfect for:** Traditional teams, simple features, clean remote UI
+
+```bash
+onx new add-login --base main
+onx save -m "Add login form"
+onx save -m "Add validation"
+onx save -m "Add tests"
+
+# Push creates ONE branch with all commits
+onx push
+
+# Result on remote:
+# - Branch: add-login (contains all 3 commits)
+# - Clean UI, easy PR workflow
+```
+
+**What you get:**
+- ✅ One clean branch per workstream
+- ✅ Perfect for traditional PR workflows
+- ✅ All commits preserved locally for undo
+- ✅ Clean remote repository UI
+
+### Stacked Diffs Mode - Advanced
+
+**Perfect for:** Complex features, incremental review, Meta/Google-style workflows
+
+```bash
+onx new big-refactor --base main
+onx save -m "Step 1: Database schema"
+onx save -m "Step 2: API endpoints"
+onx save -m "Step 3: Frontend UI"
+
+# Push creates MULTIPLE branches (one per commit)
+onx push --stacked
+
+# Result on remote:
+# - Branch: onyx/workstreams/big-refactor/commit-1
+# - Branch: onyx/workstreams/big-refactor/commit-2
+# - Branch: onyx/workstreams/big-refactor/commit-3
+# - Each can have its own PR for focused review
+```
+
+**What you get:**
+- ✅ One branch per commit for incremental review
+- ✅ PRs can be merged independently
+- ✅ Better for large, complex changes
+- ⚠️  More branches in remote UI
+
+### Choosing Your Workflow
+
+| Criterion | Single-Branch (`onx push`) | Stacked Diffs (`onx push --stacked`) |
+|-----------|---------------------------|-------------------------------------|
+| **Team Style** | Traditional Git workflow | Meta/Google stacked review |
+| **Feature Size** | Any size | Large, complex features |
+| **Review Style** | One big PR | Multiple small PRs |
+| **Remote UI** | Clean (1 branch) | More branches (N commits) |
+| **PR Creation** | `gh pr create --head feature` | Multiple PRs, stacked dependencies |
+
+**Recommendation:** Start with default `onx push` (single-branch). Use `--stacked` only when you need incremental review of complex changes.

-    - `GetCurrentWorkstream() (*Workstream, error)`
-    - `SwitchWorkstream(name string) error`
-    - `ListWorkstreams() ([]*Workstream, error)`
-    - `AddCommitToWorkstream(sha, message string) error`
+35. **Integrate rerere** (`internal/git/rerere.go`) ✓
+    - Configured rerere cache location (.onx/rerere_cache)
+    - Enabled rerere for rebase operations
+    - Implemented conflict detection and recording
+    - Apply recorded resolutions automatically
 
-### Workstream Commands
+36. **Create conflict resolution UI** (`internal/git/conflicts.go`) ✓
+    - Detect merge conflicts via index stages
+    - Present clear conflict markers with file paths
+    - Guide user through resolution process
+    - Record resolutions for rerere
 
-30. **Implement onx new** (`internal/commands/new.go`)
-    ```go
-    func New(repo *Repository, name string) error {
-        // 1. Fetch latest from origin/main
-        // 2. Create workstream entry
-        // 3. Set as current workstream
-        // 4. Update workspace to base commit
-        // 5. Log to oplog
-    }
-    ```
+### Sync and Push Commands ✓
 
-31. **Implement onx list** (`internal/commands/list.go`)
-    - Read workstreams.json
-    - Format output with current indicator (*)
-    - Show commit count per workstream
-    - Color code output for better readability

+    - Begin oplog transaction for undo support
+    - Fetch from remote (origin by default)
+    - Get workstream commit stack
+    - Sequential rebase with rerere support
+    - Handle and present conflicts clearly
+    - Update workstreams.json with new SHAs
+    - Finalize oplog transaction
 
-32. **Implement onx switch** (`internal/commands/switch.go`)
-    ```go
-    func Switch(repo *Repository, name string) error {
-        // 1. Save current ephemeral state
-        // 2. Load target workstream
-        // 3. Checkout latest commit in workstream
-        // 4. Update current_workstream
-        // 5. Restore workspace state
-        // 6. Log to oplog
-    }
-    ```
-
-33. **Add workstream validation**
-    - Validate workstream names (no special chars)
-    - Check for uncommitted changes before switch
-    - Prevent duplicate workstream names
+38. **Implement onx push** (`internal/commands/push.go`) ✓
+    - Get all branches in current workstream
+    - Push each workstream branch to remote
+    - Support for force push flag
+    - Progress reporting for each branch
+    - Clear summary of pushed branches
 
+39. **Add remote configuration** (`internal/git/remote.go`) ✓
+    - Read git remote configuration
+    - Support multiple remotes
+    - Default to "origin"
