What is create-worktree-from-issue?

A tool for finding a GitHub issue and creating a worktree, branch, and tmux window with the issue details included in the task prompt. A worktree is a separate working folder linked to the same Git repository.

Use it to start work on a GitHub issue by number or description, while assigning and labeling open issues.

It reduces the setup needed to move from a tracked issue to an isolated coding session.

Security

Grade A, and why

create-worktree-from-issue scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
