SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Automates the creation of isolated multi-repo development workspaces with independent planning directories.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Create a workspace directory containing copies of specified repos as either git worktrees or clones.
  • Provide an isolated .planning/ directory per workspace for GSD sessions.
  • Configure workspace name, target path, repos, and branch via CLI flags for repeatable setups.

Quick Start

Create a new workspace by providing a name and one or more repos, then open the created directory to proceed with GSD setup.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create isolated multi-repo workspaces for parallel development?▼

Multi-repo isolated workspaces are generated by providing a workspace name and target repositories via CLI flags. This creates a dedicated directory containing copies of the specified repos alongside an isolated .planning/ directory.

What is the difference between using git worktrees and clones for workspace management?▼

Git worktrees and clones are optional strategies for workspace management. Worktrees link multiple working directories to a single repository for lightweight branching, while clones create entirely separate repository copies for fully isolated experimentation.

Can I configure a specific branch when setting up a multi-repo workspace?▼

Yes, you can configure a specific branch when setting up a multi-repo workspace. The process accepts CLI flags to define the target branch and repository path, ensuring reproducible setups across your repositories.

Do I need an isolated planning directory for each new development workspace?▼

You get an isolated .planning/ directory automatically per workspace. This ensures independent planning sessions for teams managing multiple git repositories, keeping project planning separate from the main repository structure.

How do I automate workspace manifests for reproducible experimentation environments?▼

Automating workspace manifests involves configuring workspace name, target path, repos, and branch via CLI flags for repeatable setups. This generates isolated development environments designed for parallel work and reproducible experimentation.
