What problem does it solve? Starting work on a Linear issue normally requires manually copying the branch name, deciding where to put the code, and setting up a clean checkout. This Skill automates that setup by creating a git worktree with the exact branch Linear assigns, so you can begin coding immediately without touching your main checkout. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Flexible Input Parsing: Accepts either a bare issue ID (e.g. BUI-45) or a full Linear URL and extracts the issue identifier. - Linear API Integration: Fetches the issue's gitBranchName, title, and status via the Linear MCP get_issue tool, and stops safely if no branch name is provided. - Safe Worktree Creation: Checks for existing directories and local branches before running git worktree add, resuming prior sessions when the branch already exists and refusing to overwrite existing directories. - Use Case: You are assigned issue BUI-45. Invoke the Skill with the issue ID, and it creates a worktree at bui-45-frontend-buyer-guide-domain-layer on the branch logan/bui-45-frontend-buyer-guide-domain-layer, then tells you to cd into it. ## Quick Start Start work on Linear issue BUI-45 by setting up a git worktree with the branch Linear provides.
