using-git-worktrees

The Skill creates an isolated Git worktree by running `git worktree add` to establish a separate working directory for feature development, preventing workspace contamination and accidental commits to the wrong branch.

Isolating Git branches into separate worktrees prevents workspace contamination and accidental commits to the wrong branch, providing a safe, repeatable method to manage feature development without disrupting your main workspace.

Yes, you can use a global location for Git worktrees. The setup follows a defined directory preference order, checking for existing project-local paths first, then CLAUDE.md hints, before falling back to user-specified global locations.

You can ensure your Git worktree is ignored by verifying the chosen worktree path with the `git check-ignore` command, which confirms the directory is properly excluded from Git tracking and prevents accidental commits.

Yes, Git worktree setup auto-detects the project type and runs minimal setup commands if relevant, automatically executing preparations like `npm install`, `cargo build`, or `pip install` to establish the baseline environment in the new worktree.
