Does this skill handle dependency management?

Yes, it automatically detects project types like Node.js, Rust, Python, and Go, and runs the appropriate install commands such as npm install, cargo build, or pip install.

What happens if the baseline tests fail during setup?

The skill will report the failures immediately and request explicit permission before proceeding, ensuring you don't start development on top of pre-existing issues.

Can I customize where the worktrees are created?

Yes, the skill follows a priority order: it checks for existing directories, looks for preferences in CLAUDE.md, or asks you to choose between project-local (.worktrees/) or a global configuration path.

What are the benefits of using Git worktrees with Claude Code?

Git worktrees allow Claude to work on multiple branches simultaneously without affecting your current working directory, providing complete isolation for new features or bug fixes.

How does the skill ensure my repository doesn't get polluted?

The skill performs a mandatory safety check on your .gitignore file and automatically adds the worktree directory if it is not already excluded, preventing accidental commits of worktree contents.

Automates the creation of isolated Git worktrees with smart directory selection, dependency installation, and baseline test verification.

This skill streamlines the process of starting new feature work by setting up isolated Git workspaces using worktrees, allowing for simultaneous multi-branch development without switching contexts. It eliminates common points of friction by handling directory selection (local or global), automatically updating .gitignore to prevent accidental commits, and auto-detecting project environments to install dependencies for Node.js, Rust, Python, and Go. By verifying a clean test baseline before work begins, it ensures that any future bugs are caught early and environment isolation is maintained throughout the development lifecycle.
