System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Create a git worktree with a structured branch name derived from a loose description, configure the environment, color-code the VSCode window, and open it.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Derive a deterministic branch slug from a free-text description, optionally using an issue number as prefix.
  • Create and manage a worktree under ~/.worktrees to keep the main repository clean and organized.
  • Apply a deterministic VSCode color theme to the work window for easy visual distinction.
  • Open the new worktree in a separate VSCode window ready for development and testing.

Quick Start

Describe the work to perform and the tool will create a dedicated worktree and open it in VSCode.
