Plan Worktree Skill

Git worktrees enable parallel development by creating isolated working directories for each stage of your implementation plan. This Skill automatically extracts stages from a structured plan file and creates separate worktrees and branches for each stage, letting you work on multiple stages simultaneously without merge conflicts.

Structure your plan as a stage-based template with a JSON metadata block that defines each implementation stage and its dependencies. This Skill reads that metadata to validate the plan structure and automatically generate worktrees, branches, and symlinks for each stage in dependency order.

Yes. This Skill creates isolated worktrees for each stage of your plan, allowing different team members to work on separate stages concurrently. Each worktree includes a symlink to the original plan, so developers maintain context and can track cross-stage dependencies while working independently.

This Skill maintains stage dependency order as defined in your plan's JSON metadata block. It creates worktrees and branches respecting those dependencies, and symlinks the plan into each worktree so developers can reference upstream stages and understand blockers before proceeding.

After finishing each stage in its isolated worktree, you can view status across all plan stages and remove completed worktrees using this Skill. Changes in each worktree remain on their respective branches and can be merged back into the main branch once dependencies are satisfied.
