Orient Worktree Operations FAQs

Question 1

What is the difference between shared and isolated databases in this skill?

Accepted Answer

A shared database is the default for standard feature work, while an isolated database creates a new PostgreSQL instance for testing migrations or schema changes without affecting other environments.

Question 2

Can I run multiple Slack bot instances at the same time?

Accepted Answer

No, Slack uses Socket Mode which only supports one active connection per workspace. This skill provides critical pkill and cleanup commands to ensure only one instance runs at a time.

Question 3

Does this skill support pnpm workspace commands?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it includes patterns for using pnpm filters and Turbo caching to build, test, and manage dependencies across the various packages in the Orient monorepo.

Question 4

How does this skill identify if I am working in a worktree?

Accepted Answer

The skill detects worktree environments by checking if the file path contains 'skill-worktrees' or 'claude-worktrees', or if the current branch name starts with 'skill/' or 'worktree/'.

Question 5

How are port conflicts avoided in multi-instance setups?

Accepted Answer

Worktrees are assigned unique instance IDs (1-9). Port numbers for services are automatically offset by the instance ID multiplied by 1000, ensuring each environment has its own port range.
