What happens if baseline tests fail in the new worktree?

The skill reports the failures immediately and asks for user intervention, preventing you from starting work on a broken baseline.

Which programming languages are supported for automatic setup?

The skill includes auto-detection and setup for Node.js (npm), Rust (cargo), Python (pip/poetry), and Go (go mod).

Does this skill handle .gitignore configuration?

Yes, it automatically verifies if the worktree directory is ignored to prevent accidental commits and will offer to fix and commit the .gitignore change if necessary.

Why use worktrees instead of git checkout?

Worktrees allow you to have multiple branches checked out simultaneously in different directories, eliminating the need to stash changes or lose context when switching tasks.

Herramientas para Desarrolladores

Automates the creation and setup of isolated Git worktrees with safety verification and dependency installation for seamless multi-branch development.

Acerca de

The Git Worktree Manager skill streamlines parallel development by creating isolated, project-ready workspaces within the same repository. It intelligently handles directory selection (local or global), ensures repository integrity by validating .gitignore patterns, automatically installs dependencies across multiple tech stacks (Node.js, Rust, Python, Go), and verifies environment stability with baseline testing. This skill is essential for developers who need to jump between feature work, bug fixes, and code reviews without the overhead of stashing or context-switching in a single working directory.

Características Principales

Multi-stack dependency installation (npm, cargo, pip, poetry, go)
Clean-state verification through automated baseline testing
Automated .gitignore verification to prevent accidental pollution
12 GitHub stars
Smart directory selection via existing patterns or user preference
Systematic isolation for subagent-driven development tasks

Casos de Uso

Running multiple versions of a project simultaneously for side-by-side comparison
Establishing clean, isolated environments for AI-driven implementation plans
Switching to an urgent bug fix while mid-feature development without stashing
