Will this skill delete work I haven't committed?

No, the skill performs a 'git status' check for uncommitted changes and will warn you or ask for confirmation before removing a dirty worktree.

Does this affect my main working directory?

No, the skill is explicitly designed to never remove the main worktree, ensuring your primary development environment is always safe.

Can I delete multiple worktrees at once?

Yes, you can use the --all-merged flag to remove all worktrees whose branches have been merged into main, or the --all flag for a full cleanup.

What happens to branches that haven't been merged yet?

By default, the skill safely deletes branches only if they are merged. For unmerged branches, it typically removes the worktree but preserves the branch unless force-deleted.

Is this only for the Karkinos framework?

While optimized for Karkinos parallel workers, this skill is a general-purpose utility for any developer using Git worktrees within Claude Code.

Manages and prunes Git worktrees and branches used by parallel Claude Code workers to maintain repository hygiene.

소개

The Worker Cleanup skill automates the maintenance of Git environments used for parallel coding tasks. It identifies and removes worktrees that are no longer in use, performing essential safety checks for uncommitted changes and merge status to prevent accidental data loss. This tool is ideal for developers using the Karkinos framework or any workflow involving multiple worktrees, allowing for seamless batch cleanup of merged tasks while protecting the main codebase and ongoing work.
