Does this support daemon mode?

Daemon mode has limitations with worktrees; it is recommended to use direct mode or set the BEADS_NO_DAEMON environment variable when working inside a worktree.

What is the main benefit of using worktrees over branch switching?

Worktrees allow you to work on multiple branches simultaneously in separate directories, avoiding the need to stash changes or rebuild environments when switching tasks.

Can I use this skill if I don't have 'beads' installed?

Yes, the skill provides fallback manual Git commands for worktree management, though you will lose the automatic safety checks and database synchronization features.

How does this skill integrate with 'beads'?

It uses the bd worktree command to automatically link the worktree's database to the main repository, ensuring task and issue status stay synchronized across all workspaces.

Where are the worktrees stored?

By default, worktrees are created within the .worktrees/ directory in the repository root for standardized organization and easier management.

開発者ツール

Manage isolated Git worktrees with automatic integration for the beads task tracking system.

概要

The Git Worktrees skill provides a specialized workflow for managing parallel development streams without the overhead of context switching between branches. By leveraging the bd worktree command suite, this skill enables developers and AI agents to create isolated filesystems that share a single repository database while maintaining independent build environments and server instances. It streamlines the setup of the .worktrees/ directory, ensures proper .gitignore configuration, and synchronizes the beads issue-tracking database across all active workspaces, making it an essential tool for executing complex implementation plans that require concurrent environments.
