SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill enables teams to create and manage isolated Hypo-Workflow exploration worktrees without affecting the main project state, ensuring risky experiments stay contained.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Isolated exploration worktrees for testing ideas without modifying the main repo.
  • Full lifecycle management including status, end, archive, and upgrade commands to coordinate exploration progress.
  • Metadata and artifacts generation to capture discoveries, notes, and summaries for later integration.

Quick Start

Invoke /hw:explore with a topic to start an isolated exploration, then monitor progress with /hw:explore status and finalize with /hw:explore end.

FAQPage Schema
How do I isolate risky code experiments in git without affecting the main project?

To isolate risky experiments, you can use git worktrees to create isolated explorations without modifying the main repo. This ensures risky changes stay contained while allowing evidence gathering and analysis across multiple long-running exploration cycles.

What is the best way to manage the lifecycle of a long-running exploration worktree?

Managing the lifecycle of an exploration worktree involves tracking its status through creation, monitoring, and safe archival. You can use dedicated commands to coordinate progress, capture metadata, and safely archive results when the experimentation ends.

Can I track metadata and artifacts for hypothesis-driven analysis across multiple exploration cycles?

Yes, you can track metadata and artifacts for hypothesis-driven analysis across multiple exploration cycles. The process generates artifacts that capture discoveries, notes, and summaries during isolation, ensuring your evidence is preserved for later integration into the main project.

How do I start and end an isolated exploration workflow safely?

To start an isolated exploration workflow safely, invoke the exploration command with a specific topic to create a worktree. You can then monitor progress using status commands and finalize the process with an end command to ensure safe archival.

Does git worktree isolation support risk-free analysis for unproven ideas?

Git worktree isolation supports risk-free analysis for unproven ideas by creating a separate working directory. This allows you to test hypotheses safely without impacting the main project state, ensuring that failed experiments do not contaminate the primary codebase.
