Does this skill handle dependency installation?

Yes, it automatically detects project files like package.json or Cargo.toml and runs the appropriate install commands for Node.js, Rust, Python, and Go.

Can I customize where worktrees are stored?

Yes, the skill checks for existing directories, looks for preferences in your CLAUDE.md file, or asks for your preference between project-local or global storage.

What happens if the baseline tests fail?

If the initial tests fail in the new worktree, the skill reports the errors and asks for your permission before proceeding to ensure you aren't building on a broken foundation.

Why use Git worktrees instead of just switching branches?

Worktrees allow you to have multiple branches checked out in different directories simultaneously, enabling you to run tests or builds in one while coding in another without context switching overhead.

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

It strictly verifies that the worktree directory is ignored by Git and will automatically update your .gitignore file if necessary before proceeding.

개발자 도구

Automates the creation and setup of isolated Git worktrees for safe, multi-branch development within Claude Code.

소개

The Git Worktree Manager skill streamlines your development workflow by automating the setup of isolated workspaces using Git worktrees. It eliminates the friction of branch switching by creating dedicated directories for feature work, complete with smart directory selection and safety verification. The skill automatically detects your project type—supporting Node.js, Rust, Python, and Go—to run necessary setup commands and verifies a clean test baseline before you start coding, ensuring your main workspace remains undisturbed while you tackle new tasks.
