Git Worktree Manager

About

The Git Worktree Manager skill enables seamless context switching by creating isolated workspaces for feature development without disturbing your primary environment. It implements a systematic directory selection process, prioritizes project-specific configurations, and includes safety mechanisms to ensure worktrees are properly ignored by version control. By automatically detecting project types (Node.js, Rust, Python, Go) and running baseline tests before you start, it guarantees a clean, ready-to-code state for every new task.

Key Features

• Multi-language project setup for Node.js, Rust, Python, and Go environments.
• 0 GitHub stars
• Integrated support for global or project-local worktree storage locations.
• Automated .gitignore verification and remediation to prevent repository pollution.
• Baseline test execution to ensure development starts from a stable state.
• Smart directory selection prioritizing existing conventions or CLAUDE.md preferences.

Use Cases

• Starting a new feature while needing to keep the main workspace available for urgent patches.
• Executing complex implementation plans in a safe, isolated environment with separate dependencies.
• Managing multiple concurrent development tasks without the overhead of constant branch switching.
