git-worktree

git-worktree is a skill for Claude Code from nwiizo/ccswarm. It costs 24 tokens per session (305 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Git worktree workflow for developing several changes in separate working directories. A worktree lets each branch have its own checkout without repeatedly switching the main directory.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create named feature or bug-fix worktrees, list existing worktrees, remove completed ones, and clean up stale worktree records.
Why use it?
It reduces conflicts when multiple agents or developers work in parallel. Each feature or bug fix can be isolated and later merged into the main project.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: user-invocable in frontmatter. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is git worktree add ../ccswarm-feature-$ARGUMENTS feature/$ARGUMENTS.

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 1mo 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

Multi-step workflow for parallel development using git worktrees.

Create Worktree

# Feature worktree
git worktree add ../ccswarm-feature-$ARGUMENTS feature/$ARGUMENTS

# Bug fix worktree
git worktree add ../ccswarm-bugfix-$ARGUMENTS hotfix/$ARGUMENTS

Agent Team Integration

With Agent Teams, each agent automatically gets isolation: worktree. For manual worktree setup:

git worktree add ../ccswarm-frontend feature/ui-redesign    # Frontend agent
git worktree add ../ccswarm-backend feature/api-enhancement  # Backend agent
git worktree add ../ccswarm-devops feature/ci-cd-improvement # DevOps agent

Management

git worktree list                              # List all worktrees
git worktree remove ../ccswarm-feature-$ARGUMENTS  # Remove after merge
git worktree prune                             # Clean stale entries

Best Practices

  1. One worktree per feature/bug
  2. Naming: ccswarm-<type>-<description>
  3. Clean up after merging
  4. Run git worktree prune periodically
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.
