git-worktree is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from J-StaR-Films-Studios/VibeCode-Protocol-Suite. It costs 23 tokens per session (434 once invoked), scanned A, original, ISC.

A guide and set of procedures for managing Git worktrees, which are separate working directories connected to one repository.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating, synchronizing, and removing isolated environments for parallel Git development.
Why use it?
It lets developers work on several branches or agent tasks in isolation without constantly switching the main directory.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • high Privilege Escalation · line 41
    Code accesses credential files (SSH keys, AWS credentials, etc.). This could indicate credential theft attempts.
    Fix: Remove references to credential paths. Use environment variables or secrets managers. For docs, use placeholder paths (e.g., /path/to/config). Never load .env or token files in production code paths.

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 A, and why

git-worktree 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 7d 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.

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 it actually says

Git Worktree Skill

Manage parallel development environments without manual path juggling.

When to Use

  • Setting up parallel agents
  • Multi-agent development
  • When "worktree" is mentioned
  • Need isolated environments for different features

Status Check

git worktree list
git branch --list

Actions

[NEW] Create Agent Environment

  1. Name the Agent: Short identifier (e.g., frontend-refactor, agent-3)

  2. Define Paths:

    • Branch: [agent-name]
    • Folder: ../[repo-name]-[agent-name]
  3. Execute:

git branch [branch_name]
git worktree add [folder_path] [branch_name]
  1. Validate: git worktree list

  2. Context Migration (ask user):

cp .env [worktree_path]/.env
# If SQLite:
mkdir -p [worktree_path]/prisma
cp prisma/dev.db [worktree_path]/prisma/dev.db
  1. Initialize: pnpm install in new worktree

[SYNC] Synchronize Agents

  1. Ask: Sync ALL or SPECIFIC worktree?
  2. Execute:
git fetch origin
cd [worktree_path]
git merge origin/main  # or rebase
cd -

[KILL] Teardown Agent

  1. Select worktree from list
  2. Execute:
git worktree remove [worktree_path]
git branch -d [branch_name]  # Ask before deleting!
git worktree prune

Troubleshooting

  • "already checked out": Use a new branch name
  • Stale entries: Run git worktree prune
  • Files still tracked: Directory was deleted manually—prune first

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.
