clio-kit-worktree-create

clio-kit-worktree-create is a skill for Claude Code from iowarp/clio-kit. It costs 90 tokens per session (1,642 once invoked), scanned C, original, BSD-3-Clause.

A Git workflow for creating isolated worktrees, which are separate working folders tied to different branches. It prepares each folder with ignored configuration, dependencies, and a health check.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare one or more branches for parallel development and validation.
Why use it?
It avoids branches interfering with one another when several pieces of work need to proceed at the same time.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade C, and why

clio-kit-worktree-create scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 9d ago.

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.

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

- When finished, merge using `worktree-merge` and close out using `branch-closeout`. Never remove worktrees via `rm -rf`; always use `git worktree remove`. In canonical-main-only repositories, maintainer worktree branche

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 121 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Host compatibility

This copy is adapted from Clio Coder. Apply the procedure using the current host's available tools and the user's authorized scope. The tool names, /skill invocations, .clio-coder paths, fleets, approval gates and completion gates below describe Clio Coder; they are not installed or enforced by this skill in another host. Use the host's actual skill invocation and equivalent tools. If no equivalent exists, report the missing capability. Do not assume a tool is unavailable merely because the original headless workflow says so. A referenced agent or skill must be installed before relying on it. Scientific MCPs must be configured separately.

Adapted skills use the clio-kit- prefix to distinguish them from upstream audited skills. For a companion skill named below, select its clio-kit- copy from this collection; native agents, fleets and external programs retain their original names.

Worktree Create

Stand up isolated git worktrees, each on its own branch, ready for immediate development and validation: gitignored configuration copied, dependencies installed, and health checks verified. Everything is detected from the repository; nothing about the tech stack is assumed.

See worktree setup for package manager detection, configuration files, and health checks.

Arguments

Arguments are passed in the user invocation message. Interpret them structurally from the prompt:

/skill:clio-kit-worktree-create [--base ref] [--root path] [--setup auto|none] <branch...>

Examples

  • /skill:clio-kit-worktree-create feat/user-profiles feat/billing-portal
  • /skill:clio-kit-worktree-create --base main --root .worktrees feat/api-v2
  • /skill:clio-kit-worktree-create --setup none chore/refactor-docs

Positional Arguments

  • <branch...>: One or more branch names to create and check out.
    • Required. If omitted, prompt the user for the list of branches; never guess or invent branch names.
    • Validation: Each branch must be a valid ref name (git check-ref-format --branch <branch>).

Changes

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.
