worktree

You can isolate feature development by creating a separate git worktree, which gives each task its own isolated working directory without disturbing the main repository checkout. This keeps risky or messy changes safely separated.

Using git worktree is the best way to manage parallel development, as it creates isolated working directories for each branch. This allows you to safely develop features, fixes, and experiments simultaneously without switching contexts in a single checkout.

You can create a git worktree by asking the assistant to set up an isolated directory with consistent branch naming conventions. Once the bug fix is complete, you can list, prune, and remove the worktree through supported lifecycle management commands.

You need a git worktree when you want to keep your main checkout clean while experimenting or working on a separate branch. It prevents risky changes from spilling into your primary working directory and supports safe parallel task execution.

Yes, the workflow applies consistent branch prefixes and directory naming conventions when creating worktrees. This ensures that isolated work remains organized and is easy to identify, clean up, and remove when the task is finished.
