Do I need to manually run the initialization script?

No, the skill automatically detects the presence of an executable init.sh and runs it as part of the automated worktree creation process.

What happens if my project doesn't have an init.sh file?

The skill gracefully falls back to standard auto-detection logic, checking for common markers like package.json or Cargo.toml to initialize the environment.

How does this skill differ from standard git worktrees?

While standard worktrees handle branch creation and directory setup, this skill automatically triggers an init.sh script to configure dependencies, environment files, and submodules immediately.

Is it safe to use with existing projects?

Yes, it only executes scripts you have explicitly defined in your project root, providing more predictable control than generic auto-detection heuristics.

Can I use this for complex setups like mise or submodules?

Absolutely; it is specifically designed to handle custom initialization logic including submodules, mise, and environment variable configuration via scripts.

개발자 도구

Automates project-specific initialization scripts immediately after creating Git worktrees to ensure a consistent workspace setup.

The Git Worktree Init Script skill enhances the standard git worktree workflow by automatically detecting and executing a project's init.sh file upon worktree creation. Instead of relying on generic auto-detection heuristics for package managers, this skill prioritizes explicit, script-based initialization for complex projects involving environment variables, submodules, or specific dependencies. It serves as a bridge for developers who require customized setup routines that standard tools might miss, ensuring every new worktree is instantly ready for development without manual configuration.
