| description | Safely remove a completed git worktree with strict verification gates. Use when asked to clean up, remove, tear down, or delete a worktree after work is done. Require that the worktree is clean and branch commits are pushed to origin before removal. |
Cleanup Worktree
When to use
Use this skill when asked to:
- clean up current worktree
- remove worktree
- tear down worktree
- delete worktree
- any similar request referencing a specific worktree path either directly or indirectly.
Tooling
Use this helper as the default path:
<path-to-skill>/scripts/cleanup.sh
Execution
cd to the linked worktree to be removed.- Run
<path-to-skill>/scripts/cleanup.sh.
cd to project root after cleanup.- Report the removed path.
Hard Constraints
- Do not remove a worktree with uncommitted/staged/untracked changes.
- Do not remove a worktree if local commits are not pushed to the tracking branch.
- Do not run
git worktree remove from inside the worktree being removed; the script must change to the project root first.
