How does this skill handle .gitignore safety?

The skill automatically checks if your worktree directory (like .worktrees/) is ignored; if not, it adds the entry to .gitignore and commits the change immediately to prevent accidental file tracking.

What happens if the baseline tests fail in the new worktree?

If tests fail, the skill reports the specific failures and asks for explicit permission before proceeding, ensuring you never start a feature on a broken foundation.

Why use worktrees instead of just switching branches?

Worktrees allow you to have multiple branches checked out simultaneously in different directories, meaning you do not have to stash changes or lose your build state in your main workspace when switching tasks.

Which programming languages are supported for automatic setup?

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

開発者ツール

Automates the creation of isolated Git worktrees with intelligent directory selection and safety verification for cleaner feature development.

The Git Worktree Manager skill streamlines the setup of isolated workspaces using Git worktrees, allowing developers to work on multiple features simultaneously without workspace pollution or constant branch switching. It intelligently detects preferred worktree patterns, enforces .gitignore safety to prevent accidental commits, automatically installs project-specific dependencies, and runs baseline tests to ensure a clean starting point for every new development task.
