SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill helps engineers review a colleague's branch by spinning up a dedicated git worktree, preparing the local environment, and initializing contextual thoughts. It coordinates worktree creation, dependency setup, and thoughts initialization to keep the review isolated from the main repository.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Create a dedicated worktree for a given branch or PR, ensuring an isolated review environment.
  • Auto-detect repository and set up dependencies based on the project structure (Make, npm, cargo, pip, etc.).
  • Initialize Hyprlayer thoughts in the new worktree to preserve context during the review.

Quick Start

Pass a branch name or PR number to create a dedicated worktree, configure dependencies, and initialize thoughts in the new environment.
