Can I specify a custom location for my worktrees?

Yes, you can specify preferences in your CLAUDE.md file or choose between project-local (.worktrees/) and global (~/.config/superpowers/worktrees/) locations when prompted.

How does this skill handle .gitignore safety?

The skill automatically checks if your worktree directory is ignored by Git; if not, it updates your .gitignore and commits the change to prevent accidental tracking of worktree contents.

Why use worktrees instead of switching branches?

Worktrees allow you to have multiple branches checked out simultaneously in different directories, meaning you don't have to stash changes or lose your current IDE state when switching tasks.

What tech stacks are supported for auto-setup?

It currently supports Node.js (npm), Rust (cargo), Python (pip/poetry), and Go (go mod), automatically installing dependencies upon worktree creation.

Herramientas para Desarrolladores

Creates isolated Git workspaces with automated environment setup and safety checks for efficient parallel development.

This skill automates the creation and management of Git worktrees, enabling developers to work on multiple features or branches simultaneously without the overhead of context switching in a single directory. It intelligently determines the best location for worktrees, ensures they are properly ignored by Git to prevent repository pollution, automatically installs dependencies for various tech stacks like Node.js, Rust, Python, and Go, and runs baseline tests to ensure a clean starting point for every task.
