create-worktree-from-issue

To create a git worktree from a GitHub issue, this Skill automates the setup by generating a dedicated worktree, a descriptive branch, and a tmux window pre-populated with the issue's context. It links the GitHub issue directly to your local development environment.

You need the gh CLI and workmux installed to provision the environment. These dependencies handle retrieving the GitHub issue details and automating the tmux window creation alongside the new git worktree and branch.

Branch names are generated automatically based on the GitHub issue's title and labels. This ensures your development branches remain descriptive and contextually linked to the specific bug report or feature request.

Yes, the Skill injects GitHub issue details directly into the new tmux session for immediate context. This contextual prompting ensures you have the necessary issue information available as soon as you begin coding.

The best way to isolate development tasks is by creating a dedicated git worktree for each GitHub issue. This approach maps issues to local environments, automatically setting up isolated branches and tmux windows.

Using a git worktree allows you to isolate work on specific issues without switching branches in your main directory. It creates a separate working tree and tmux window, keeping development tasks cleanly separated.
