| name | create-git-worktree |
| description | Create an isolated git worktree and branch for parallel development. Use when starting work on a new issue, feature, or bug fix that should be isolated from the main working directory. |
Git Worktree Creation
Use the /create-git-worktree command to create a new worktree and branch for isolated parallel development.
Usage
/create-git-worktree <branch-name>
The command will:
- Create a worktree at
trees/<branch-name>/
- Create the branch if it doesn't exist (or check it out if it does)
- Switch you into the worktree directory so you're ready to work
When to Use
- Starting work on a new issue or task
- Creating a separate workspace for a feature or bug fix
- Setting up parallel development environments
- Any time you need isolated work that won't affect the main directory
Example
To start work on issue #42:
/create-git-worktree issue-42-fix-token-decryption
After running, you'll be in trees/issue-42-fix-token-decryption/ on the issue-42-fix-token-decryption branch, ready to start coding.
