What problem does it solve?
Planning and coordinating multiple concurrent development efforts can cause conflicts, duplicate work, and integration bottlenecks. This Skill generates a structured plan for parallel worktrees, mapping dependencies, evaluating risks, and outlining a phased execution strategy.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Dependency-aware planning: maps feature dependencies and sequences work to minimize rework and re-compilation.
- Conflict avoidance: analyzes possible file, schema, and API conflicts across workstreams before development begins.
- Worktree design & governance: produces detailed worktree recommendations with scope, milestones, and testing guidance.
- Use Case: For a project with frontend, backend, and data processing work, generate isolated worktrees with clear prerequisites to maximize parallel delivery while preserving a smooth integration path.
Quick Start
Run the planning tool with a requirements file or a comma-separated feature list to generate a concrete worktree strategy. For example:
- /plan-worktrees requirements.md
- /plan-worktrees "auth,profiles,analytics"
