How does it protect my work from being deleted?

The 'close' command performs safety checks to ensure there are no uncommitted changes or unpushed commits before allowing a worktree to be removed.

Does this skill work with any terminal?

This skill is specifically designed for iTerm2 on macOS, as it utilizes iTerm2's unique scripting capabilities to manage tabs, windows, and panes.

Can I branch from my current branch instead of main?

Yes, you can use the --from-current flag or specify a custom base branch using the --base option.

Can I use this to start an AI coding session automatically?

Yes, by using the --claude and --task flags during creation, the skill will open a new iTerm2 tab and immediately launch a Claude session for the specified task.

生产力与工作流

Simplifies parallel Git development by automating worktree management and iTerm2 terminal organization.

关于

The iterm-worktree skill optimizes multi-feature development by combining Git worktree isolation with native iTerm2 terminal organization. It allows developers to instantly spin up new branches in dedicated tabs, windows, or panes, enabling seamless context switching without the overhead of git stashing. The skill includes built-in safety validations to ensure no uncommitted or unpushed work is lost during cleanup, and it can even launch Claude sessions automatically within new worktree environments to jumpstart tasks.
