Git Worktrees

Purpose

Create parallel worktrees for distinct tasks to keep changes isolated and reviews clean.

When to Use

• Parallel task execution; spikes; conflicting changes

Behavior

1. Pre-check: git status --porcelain must be clean.
2. Suggest names: wt-TASK-<id> or wt-<short-topic>.
3. Commands:
   • Create: git worktree add ../<name> <base-branch>
   • Switch: open the new dir; confirm branch
   • Remove (after merge): git worktree remove ../<name>
4. Cleanup checklist.

Guardrails

• Never create/remove with dirty status.
• Echo exact commands; do not execute automatically.

Integration

• /lazy task-exec (optional), Coder agent setup phase.

Example Prompt

Create a dedicated worktree for TASK-1.2 on top of feature/auth.
