How does the skill handle repository safety?

It automatically verifies if the worktree directory is ignored by Git and will proactively offer to update your .gitignore file to prevent accidental commits of worktree contents.

Does it support my specific programming language?

Yes, it automatically detects and runs setup commands for Node.js, Rust, Python, and Go projects, including dependency installation and baseline builds.

Can I use this for CI/CD or automated testing?

Yes, the skill performs a baseline test run upon creation to ensure the environment is fully functional and passing all tests before any new code is implemented.

Where are the worktrees created?

The skill prioritizes existing .worktrees/ folders, checks CLAUDE.md for project-specific preferences, or prompts the user to choose between project-local or global hidden directories.

What are the benefits of using Git worktrees over stashing?

Worktrees allow you to have multiple branches checked out simultaneously in different directories, eliminating the need to stash, switch branches, and rebuild environments repeatedly.

生产力与工作流

Creates and manages isolated Git worktrees with automatic environment setup and safety verification for parallel feature development.

This skill enables Claude to manage multiple development branches simultaneously by creating isolated workspaces using Git worktrees. It follows a systematic directory selection process, ensures all project-local worktrees are correctly ignored by version control to prevent repository pollution, and automatically initializes the environment by detecting project types like Node.js, Rust, Python, or Go. By running baseline tests before work begins, it provides a reliable, clean starting point for feature implementation without disrupting your primary workspace or requiring complex stashing workflows.
