setup-worktree

name	setup-worktree
description	Set up a new git worktree for this repo by copying gitignored files (bin/) and building server assets so pnpm dev works without errors

Purpose

When a new git worktree is created, gitignored files (like the Temporal CLI binary in bin/) are missing and server assets haven't been built. Run this skill to get a new worktree ready for development.

Steps

1. Find the main worktree path

git worktree list

The first entry is the main worktree. Use it as $MAIN.

2. Copy .env from the main worktree

MAIN=$(git worktree list | head -1 | awk '{print $1}')
cp $MAIN/.env ./.env

3. Build server assets

Builds the frontend into server/ui/assets/ which the Go server embeds. Required for pnpm dev to start.

pnpm build:server

pnpm dev should now start without errors.

Why each step is needed

Step	Why
Copy .env	Gitignored — not present in a fresh worktree, needed for dev modes
pnpm build:server	Runs VITE_API= BUILD_PATH=server/ui/assets/local vite build — without this, pnpm dev fails because the embedded server assets are missing
