What happens to my .env files during setup?

The skill automatically detects and copies existing .env files and local settings to the new worktree directory to ensure your environment is ready immediately.

Does this skill require specific tools?

Yes, it is designed to work alongside the 'rpi' CLI tool and expects a Git-based project structure for worktree management.

Where are the worktrees stored by default?

It checks your local configuration for a worktree base path; if none is found, it defaults to creating worktrees in '~/wt/[reponame]/[branch-name]'.

How does it handle Linear ticket integration?

The skill uses the Linear CLI to fetch issue details by ticket number and saves the description as a markdown file in a structured task directory.

Productivity & Workflow

Automates the creation and configuration of Git worktrees for streamlined task implementation and environment setup.

About

The setup-worktree skill optimizes the developer workflow by automating the transition from a project ticket to a ready-to-code environment. It integrates with Linear to fetch issue details, organizes task-specific directories, and manages the complexities of Git worktree creation. By handling branch naming conventions, environment file migration, and repository initialization (via the rpi CLI), it ensures a consistent and isolated development setup for every task without manual overhead.

Key Features

Streamlined Git worktree creation with branch and directory naming logic
0 GitHub stars
Automatic migration of environment files and local configuration settings
Automated Linear ticket fetching and task directory organization
Interactive setup confirmation for dependencies and repository paths
Support for custom initialization scripts like create_worktree.sh

Use Cases

Managing multiple concurrent tasks without the friction of switching branches in a single directory
Automating the migration of .env and local settings to new development branches
Initializing an isolated workspace for a specific feature or bug fix based on a Linear issue
