description: Create an isolated git worktree for parallel feature work or PR review. Use when starting work that should not disturb the current checkout, or when `ce-work` or `ce-code-review` offers a worktree option.

# Git Worktree Manager
# Worktree Creation
This skill provides a unified interface for managing Git worktrees across your development workflow. Whether you're reviewing PRs in isolation or working on features in parallel, this skill handles all the complexity.
Create a worktree under `.worktrees/<branch>` with branch-specific setup that `git worktree add` alone does not handle:
## What This Skill Does
- Copies `.env`, `.env.local`, `.env.test`, etc. from the main repo (skips `.env.example`)
- Trusts `mise`/`direnv` configs, with branch-aware safety rules so review branches do not auto-grant trust to untrusted `.envrc` content
- Adds `.worktrees` to `.gitignore` if not already ignored
- Does not modify the main repo checkout — `from-branch` is fetched, not checked out
- **Create worktrees** from main branch with clear branch names
- **List worktrees** with current status
- **Switch between worktrees** for parallel work
- **Clean up completed worktrees** automatically
- **Interactive confirmations** at each step
- **Automatic .gitignore management** for worktree directory
- **Automatic .env file copying** from main repo to new worktrees
- **Automatic dev tool trusting** for mise and direnv configs with review-safe guardrails
## CRITICAL: Always Use the Manager Script
**NEVER call `git worktree add` directly.** Always use the `worktree-manager.sh` script.
The script handles critical setup that raw git commands don't:
1. Copies `.env`, `.env.local`, `.env.test`, etc. from main repo
2. Trusts dev tool configs with branch-aware safety rules:
- mise: auto-trust only when unchanged from a trusted baseline branch
- direnv: auto-allow only for trusted base branches; review worktrees stay manual
3. Ensures `.worktrees` is in `.gitignore`
4. Creates consistent directory structure
## Creating a worktree
```bash
# ✅ CORRECT - Always use the script
bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ce-worktree/scripts/worktree-manager.sh create feature-name
# ❌ WRONG - Never do this directly
git worktree add .worktrees/feature-name -b feature-name main
bash scripts/worktree-manager.sh create <branch-name> [from-branch]
```
## When to Use This Skill
Defaults:
- `from-branch` defaults to origin's default branch (or `main` if that cannot be resolved)
- The new branch is created at `origin/<from-branch>` (or the local ref if the remote is unavailable)
Use this skill in these scenarios:
1. **Code Review (`/ce-code-review`)**: If NOT already on the target branch (PR branch or requested branch), offer worktree for isolated review
2. **Feature Work (`/ce-work`)**: Always ask if user wants parallel worktree or live branch work
3. **Parallel Development**: When working on multiple features simultaneously
4. **Cleanup**: After completing work in a worktree
## How to Use
### In Claude Code Workflows
The skill is automatically called from `/ce-code-review` and `/ce-work` commands:
```
# For review: offers worktree if not on PR branch
# For work: always asks - new branch or worktree?
Examples:
```bash
bash scripts/worktree-manager.sh create feat/login
bash scripts/worktree-manager.sh create fix/email-validation develop
```
### Manual Usage
After creation, switch to the worktree with `cd .worktrees/<branch-name>`.
You can also invoke the skill directly from bash:
## Other worktree operations
Use `git` directly — no wrapper is needed and none is provided:
```bash
# Create a new worktree (copies .env files automatically)
bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ce-worktree/scripts/worktree-manager.sh create feature-login
# List all worktrees
bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ce-worktree/scripts/worktree-manager.sh list
# Switch to a worktree
bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ce-worktree/scripts/worktree-manager.sh switch feature-login
# Copy .env files to an existing worktree (if they weren't copied)
bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ce-worktree/scripts/worktree-manager.sh copy-env feature-login
# Clean up completed worktrees
bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ce-worktree/scripts/worktree-manager.sh cleanup
git worktree list # list worktrees
git worktree remove .worktrees/<branch> # remove a worktree
cd .worktrees/<branch> # switch to a worktree
cd "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)" # return to main checkout
```
## Commands
### `create <branch-name> [from-branch]`
Creates a new worktree with the given branch name.
**Options:**
- `branch-name` (required): The name for the new branch and worktree
- `from-branch` (optional): Base branch to create from (defaults to `main`)
**Example:**
To copy `.env*` files into an existing worktree created without them, run this from the main repo (not from inside the worktree, since branch names often contain slashes like `feat/login`):
```bash
bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ce-worktree/scripts/worktree-manager.sh create feature-login
cp .env* .worktrees/<branch>/
```
**What happens:**
1. Checks if worktree already exists
2. Updates the base branch from remote
3. Creates new worktree and branch
4. **Copies all .env files from main repo** (.env, .env.local, .env.test, etc.)
5. **Trusts dev tool configs** with branch-aware safety rules:
- trusted bases (`main`, `develop`, `dev`, `trunk`, `staging`, `release/*`) compare against themselves
- other branches compare against the default branch
- direnv auto-allow is skipped on non-trusted bases because `.envrc` can source unchecked files
6. Shows path for cd-ing to the worktree
## Dev tool trust behavior
### `list` or `ls`
When mise or direnv configs are present, the script attempts to trust them so hooks and scripts do not block on interactive prompts. Trust is baseline-checked against a reference branch:
Lists all available worktrees with their branches and current status.
- **Trusted base branches** (`main`, `develop`, `dev`, `trunk`, `staging`, `release/*`): the new worktree's configs are compared against that branch; unchanged configs are auto-trusted. `direnv allow` is permitted.
- **Other branches** (feature branches, PR review branches): configs are compared against the default branch; `direnv allow` is skipped regardless, because `.envrc` can source files that direnv does not validate.
**Example:**
```bash
bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ce-worktree/scripts/worktree-manager.sh list
```
Modified configs are never auto-trusted. The script prints the manual trust command to run after review.
**Output shows:**
- Worktree name
- Branch name
- Which is current (marked with ✓)
- Main repo status
## When to create a worktree
### `switch <name>` or `go <name>`
Create a worktree when:
- Reviewing a PR while keeping the main checkout free for other work
- Running multiple features in parallel without branch-switching overhead
- Keeping the default branch free of in-progress state
Switches to an existing worktree and cd's into it.
Do not create a worktree for single-task work that can happen on a branch in the main checkout.
**Example:**
```bash
bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ce-worktree/scripts/worktree-manager.sh switch feature-login
```
## Integration
**Optional:**
- If name not provided, lists available worktrees and prompts for selection
### `cleanup` or `clean`
Interactively cleans up inactive worktrees with confirmation.
**Example:**
```bash
bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ce-worktree/scripts/worktree-manager.sh cleanup
```
**What happens:**
1. Lists all inactive worktrees
2. Asks for confirmation
3. Removes selected worktrees
4. Cleans up empty directories
## Workflow Examples
### Code Review with Worktree
```bash
# Claude Code recognizes you're not on the PR branch
# Offers: "Use worktree for isolated review? (y/n)"
# You respond: yes
# Script runs (copies .env files automatically):
bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ce-worktree/scripts/worktree-manager.sh create pr-123-feature-name
# You're now in isolated worktree for review with all env vars
cd .worktrees/pr-123-feature-name
# After review, return to main:
cd ../..
bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ce-worktree/scripts/worktree-manager.sh cleanup
```
### Parallel Feature Development
```bash
# For first feature (copies .env files):
bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ce-worktree/scripts/worktree-manager.sh create feature-login
# Later, start second feature (also copies .env files):
bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ce-worktree/scripts/worktree-manager.sh create feature-notifications
# List what you have:
bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ce-worktree/scripts/worktree-manager.sh list
# Switch between them as needed:
bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ce-worktree/scripts/worktree-manager.sh switch feature-login
# Return to main and cleanup when done:
cd .
bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ce-worktree/scripts/worktree-manager.sh cleanup
```
## Key Design Principles
### KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid)
- **One manager script** handles all worktree operations
- **Simple commands** with sensible defaults
- **Interactive prompts** prevent accidental operations
- **Clear naming** using branch names directly
### Opinionated Defaults
- Worktrees always created from **main** (unless specified)
- Worktrees stored in **.worktrees/** directory
- Branch name becomes worktree name
- **.gitignore** automatically managed
### Safety First
- **Confirms before creating** worktrees
- **Confirms before cleanup** to prevent accidental removal
- **Won't remove current worktree**
- **Clear error messages** for issues
## Integration with Workflows
### `/ce-code-review`
Instead of always creating a worktree:
```
1. Check current branch
2. If ALREADY on target branch (PR branch or requested branch) → stay there, no worktree needed
3. If DIFFERENT branch than the review target → offer worktree:
"Use worktree for isolated review? (y/n)"
- yes → call ce-worktree skill
- no → proceed with PR diff on current branch
```
### `/ce-work`
Always offer choice:
```
1. Ask: "How do you want to work?
1. New branch on current worktree (live work)
2. Worktree (parallel work)"
2. If choice 1 → create new branch normally
3. If choice 2 → call ce-worktree skill to create from main
```
`ce-work` and `ce-code-review` offer this skill as an option. When the user selects "worktree" in those flows, invoke `bash scripts/worktree-manager.sh create <branch>` with a meaningful branch name derived from the work description (e.g., `feat/crowd-sniff`, `fix/email-validation`). Avoid auto-generated names like `worktree-jolly-beaming-raven` that obscure the work.
## Troubleshooting
### "Worktree already exists"
**"Worktree already exists"**: the path is already in use. Either switch to it (`cd .worktrees/<branch>`) or remove it (`git worktree remove .worktrees/<branch>`) before recreating.
If you see this, the script will ask if you want to switch to it instead.
**"Cannot remove worktree: it is the current worktree"**: `cd` out of the worktree first, then `git worktree remove`.
### "Cannot remove worktree: it is the current worktree"
Switch out of the worktree first (to main repo), then cleanup:
```bash
cd $(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)
bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ce-worktree/scripts/worktree-manager.sh cleanup
```
### Lost in a worktree?
See where you are:
```bash
bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ce-worktree/scripts/worktree-manager.sh list
```
### .env files missing in worktree?
If a worktree was created without .env files (e.g., via raw `git worktree add`), copy them:
```bash
bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ce-worktree/scripts/worktree-manager.sh copy-env feature-name
```
Navigate back to main:
```bash
cd $(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)
```
## Technical Details
### Directory Structure
```
.worktrees/
├── feature-login/ # Worktree 1
│ ├── .git
│ ├── app/
│ └── ...
├── feature-notifications/ # Worktree 2
│ ├── .git
│ ├── app/
│ └── ...
└── ...
.gitignore (updated to include .worktrees)
```
### How It Works
- Uses `git worktree add` for isolated environments
- Each worktree has its own branch
- Changes in one worktree don't affect others
- Share git history with main repo
- Can push from any worktree
### Performance
- Worktrees are lightweight (just file system links)
- No repository duplication
- Shared git objects for efficiency
- Much faster than cloning or stashing/switching
**Dev tool trust was skipped**: the script prints the manual command. Review the config diff (`git diff <base-ref> -- .envrc`), then run the printed command from the worktree directory.

Git Worktree Manager
Usage: worktree-manager.sh <command> [options]
Commands:
create <branch-name> [from-branch] Create new worktree (copies .env files automatically)
(from-branch defaults to main)
list | ls List all worktrees
switch | go [name] Switch to worktree
copy-env | env [name] Copy .env files from main repo to worktree
(if name omitted, uses current worktree)
cleanup | clean Clean up inactive worktrees
help Show this help message
Environment Files:
- Automatically copies .env, .env.local, .env.test, etc. on create
- Skips .env.example (should be in git)
- Creates .backup files if destination already exists
- Use 'copy-env' to refresh env files after main repo changes
Dev Tool Trust:
- Trusts mise config (.mise.toml, mise.toml, .tool-versions) and direnv (.envrc)
- Uses trusted base branches directly (main, develop, dev, trunk, staging, release/*)
- Other branches fall back to the default branch as the trust baseline
- direnv auto-allow is skipped on non-trusted base branches; review manually first
- Modified configs are flagged for manual review
- Only runs if the tool is installed and config exists
- Prevents hooks/scripts from hanging on interactive trust prompts
Examples:
worktree-manager.sh create feature-login
worktree-manager.sh create feature-auth develop
worktree-manager.sh switch feature-login
worktree-manager.sh copy-env feature-login
worktree-manager.sh copy-env # copies to current worktree
worktree-manager.sh cleanup
worktree-manager.sh list
