worktree-isolation
Git worktree management for safe, isolated feature development. Creates, manages, and cleans up worktrees with branch naming and dependency setup.
npx skills add a5c-ai/babysitter --skill worktree-isolation --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Create worktree with feature branch git worktree add .claude/worktrees/<slug> -b feature/<slug> cd .claude/worktrees/<slug> npm install # or equivalent package manager ``` ### 2. Worktree Detection - Check if currently inside a worktree - Identify the base branch - Detect worktree state (clean, dirty, conflicts) ### 3. Worktree Sync - Pull latest changes from base branch into worktree - Rebase feature branch on updated base - Resolve conflicts if needed ### 4. Worktree Diff - Generate diff between worktree and base branch - Summarize changes by file and type - Calculate diff statistics ### 5. Worktree Cleanup - Remove worktree after successful merge - Delete feature branch - Prune stale worktree references ### 6. Worktree Status - List all active worktrees - Show branch and status for each - Identify orphaned worktrees ## Branch Naming Convention | Mode | Pattern | Example | |------|---------|---------| | Feature | `feature/<slug>` | `feature/add-user-auth` | | Bugfix | `bugfix/<slug>` | `bugfix/fix-payment-race` | | Quick | `quick/<number>` | `quick/042` | ## Multiple Parallel Sessions Worktrees enable multiple Pilot Shell sessions to work simultaneously without interference, as

What does the worktree-isolation skill do?
Git worktree management for safe, isolated feature development. Creates, manages, and cleans up worktrees with branch naming and dependency setup.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add a5c-ai/babysitter --skill worktree-isolation --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From a5c-ai/babysitter, a repository with 1,642 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
