isolated-development

What problem does it solve?

It prevents experimental or dependency-changing work from contaminating your main development tree by isolating each feature or issue in its own sandbox and enforcing a baseline verification step before you proceed.

Core Features & Use Cases

• One worktree per feature/issue to keep commits, branches, and state independent.
• Auto-create from issue context by creating a worktree/branch workflow when you start “work on issue #123”, then loading the issue description and related mentions into the session.
• Project detection and dependency install to set up the sandbox using language-appropriate install commands (Node/Python/Rust/Go, with lockfile priority).
• Baseline verification gate that runs tests before work begins, stopping when verification fails to reduce environment-related surprises.

Quick Start

Ask the AI to run isolated-development for issue #123 so it creates a dedicated worktree, installs dependencies, runs the baseline test suite, and only then starts the change with issue context loaded.
