Why use Git worktrees instead of standard branch switching?

Git worktrees allow you to have multiple branches checked out in separate directories simultaneously. This eliminates the need to stash changes, avoids disrupting your current state, and allows you to run multiple versions of your app at once.

What happens if baseline tests fail in the new worktree?

If the initial test run fails, Claude will immediately report the failures and ask for your explicit permission to either proceed with the known issues or pause to investigate the environment.

How does this skill handle security and repository cleanliness?

The skill includes a mandatory safety verification step that uses 'git check-ignore' to ensure your worktree directory is excluded from version control, automatically adding it to .gitignore if necessary.

Which programming languages are supported for automatic setup?

The skill features auto-detection for Node.js (package.json), Rust (Cargo.toml), Python (requirements.txt/pyproject.toml), and Go (go.mod), automatically running the appropriate installation commands.

開発者ツール

Automates the creation and setup of isolated Git worktrees for parallel feature development with built-in safety verification.

概要

This skill streamlines the development workflow by managing isolated workspaces through Git worktrees. It eliminates the friction of context switching by automating directory selection, ensuring worktree paths are correctly ignored by Git, and performing environment setup. By automatically installing dependencies for Node.js, Rust, Python, or Go and running baseline tests, it guarantees that every new feature branch starts from a verified, clean environment without disrupting your primary workspace.

主な機能

Automatic .gitignore verification and updating to prevent worktree files from polluting the repository.
Zero-config environment setup including dependency installation for major programming languages.
Seamless path detection for global or project-local worktree storage.
Baseline test execution to verify workspace integrity before implementation begins.
4 GitHub stars
Smart directory selection based on existing project structures and CLAUDE.md preferences.

ユースケース

Developing multiple features or hotfixes in parallel without the overhead of stashing and switching branches.
Standardizing worktree setup across a team to ensure consistent development environments.
Isolating experimental changes from the main workspace to prevent accidental commits of debug code.
