What happens if my tests fail during the workflow?

The skill enforces quality gates, requiring tests to pass before allowing branch completion or PR creation. It also runs baseline tests during setup to ensure you start from a clean state.

Can I use this for GitHub Pull Requests?

Yes, the skill integrates with the GitHub CLI (gh) to push branches and create detailed Pull Requests including change summaries and test plans automatically.

How does this skill handle Git worktrees?

The skill identifies preferred locations like .worktrees, ensures they are correctly ignored by Git to prevent accidental commits of worktree contents, and automates the branch creation and directory setup process.

Does it support different programming languages?

Yes, it automatically detects and runs setup commands for Node.js (npm), Rust (cargo), Python (pip/poetry), and Go (go mod) projects during worktree creation.

Is it safe to use for sensitive projects?

Absolutely. It includes safety checks to prevent committing secrets or worktree contents by verifying .gitignore status and follows a disciplined 'commit frequently, commit small' philosophy.

Automates the full development lifecycle from branch creation and worktree isolation to atomic commits and pull requests.

The Git Workflow skill provides a structured approach to feature development by automating branch isolation through Git worktrees. It ensures a clean development environment by verifying directory ignores, auto-detecting project dependencies, and running baseline tests before work begins. During development, it encourages atomic commits using conventional prefixes and provides a rigorous completion flow that includes mandatory test verification before offering options to merge locally, create a PR, or discard changes, ensuring high-quality code integration and disciplined version control.
