Git Worktrees

This lets Claude help you work with git worktrees, which means having multiple branches checked out simultaneously in different directories. Most useful when you're juggling stacked PRs, need to spin up an urgent hotfix while knee-deep in feature work, or want to run multiple dev servers at once without the constant branch switching dance. The skill covers the full workflow from creating worktrees with specific naming conventions to managing dependencies across them, plus real examples of updating PR chains without leaving your current context. It's opinionated about directory structure (keep worktrees outside your main repo) and cleanup discipline, which honestly saves you from the mess of forgotten worktrees eating disk space six months later.
