A git worktree allows you to create a dedicated local directory for a feature and install dependencies, ensuring isolated development. This environment setup validates worktree creation and basic project readiness.

A git worktree creates an isolated local directory linked to your repository, allowing independent feature development. You need it for feature management to develop specific features without affecting the main branch.

Yes, this dev environment setup integrates with Linear ticket tracking by reporting progress directly to Linear. It applies to workflows where the Linear ticket is already In Progress.

Yes, a feature directory with plans must exist before creating a worktree. This setup applies to feature development workflows where the feature directory exists and the Linear ticket is In Progress.

Yes, you can install dependencies and verify project readiness in an isolated worktree. The setup process installs and verifies dependencies to ensure the feature can be developed independently without conflicts.

After dev environment setup and dependency installation, the workflow validates project readiness and moves to planning. Progress is reported back to Linear to transition the feature development phase.
