SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill isolates tasks using a one-worktree-per-task workflow, preventing file edits from colliding and keeping the main working tree clean.

Core Features & Use Cases

Isolated Worktrees: Switch to an isolated git worktree for each task, preventing edit collisions.
Net-New Features: Activates by default for net-new features to keep them isolated.
Multi-Agent Parallel Tasks: Prevents cross-contamination when multiple concurrent tasks are running.
Use Case: When working on a feature or fix, this Skill ensures that your changes are isolated and do not affect the main working tree.

Quick Start

To start a new task in an isolated worktree, simply call 'EnterWorktree <branch-name>'.

FAQPage Schema

How do I isolate git feature development to prevent file edit collisions?▼

Git worktree isolation prevents file edit collisions by creating a separate working tree for each task. Switching to an isolated worktree keeps your main branch clean while allowing concurrent feature development without cross-contamination.

What is the one-worktree-per-task workflow for parallel development?▼

The one-worktree-per-task workflow assigns an isolated git worktree to each individual task. This approach prevents cross-contamination between concurrent multi-agent workflows and keeps the main working tree clean during feature development.

Can I run multiple concurrent tasks in separate git worktrees?▼

Yes, isolated git worktrees support concurrent multi-agent workflows by preventing cross-contamination. Each task operates in its own worktree, ensuring file edits do not collide or affect the main working tree.

Do I need Claude Code's EnterWorktree command to manage isolated worktrees?▼

Yes, managing isolated worktrees with this workflow requires Claude Code's EnterWorktree and ExitWorktree commands. You start a new task in an isolated worktree by calling EnterWorktree followed by your desired branch name.

When should I use a separate git worktree instead of branching directly?▼

Use a separate git worktree when developing net-new features, fixing bugs, or running concurrent multi-agent tasks. Worktrees prevent file edit collisions and maintain a clean main working tree, which branching alone does not physically isolate.
