Test it
Using "remove-git-worktree". Remove the worktree for feature/new-login.
Expected outcome:
The feature/new-login worktree was removed from the expected sibling worktrees directory. The matching local branch was also deleted.
Using "remove-git-worktree". Clean up bugfix/header-layout after merge.
Expected outcome:
The cleanup completed for bugfix/header-layout. The local worktree and local branch are no longer present.
Using "remove-git-worktree". Verify the path before removing experiment/payment-flow.
Expected outcome:
The resolved path matched the expected worktrees directory. Cleanup can continue after user confirmation.
Security Audit
Medium Riskv11 • 7/9/2026 Open versioned report
Most command-execution findings are expected for a Git cleanup script and are false positives because commands are hardcoded and quoted. The parent-relative worktree path and later delete operations are real risks because the skill can remove a sibling worktree directory and force-delete a local branch without confirmation. No evidence found for prompt injection or network behavior.

Destructive Cleanup Runs Without Confirmation
The script removes the computed worktree and then force-deletes a matching local branch when it exists. It does not ask for confirmation before the destructive operations.
The file directly invokes git worktree remove and git branch -D on the selected branch context. The behavior is intended by the skill but can delete local work.
Capability review items (1)
These are real local capabilities that may be expected for this skill, so they require review but are not counted as confirmed malicious behavior.
High
Path traversal sequence
WORKTREE_PATH="$REPO_ROOT/../${REPO_NAME}-worktrees/$WORKTREE_NAME"
The script builds a parent-relative path outside the repository root and later removes that worktree path. This is intended cleanup behavior, but it is still a real filesystem deletion risk.

What You Can Build
Clean Up Completed Feature Work
Remove a feature worktree and its local branch after merge work is finished.
Recover From Accidental Worktree Creation
Delete a mistakenly created worktree that follows the repository worktree naming convention.
Keep Local Repositories Tidy
Standardize cleanup of old local worktrees during repository maintenance.
Try These Prompts
Remove One Worktree
Use the remove-git-worktree skill to remove the worktree for branch feature/new-login.
Clean After Merge
After confirming branch feature/cart-checkout is merged, remove its local worktree and matching local branch.
Verify Path Before Removal
For branch bugfix/header-layout, show the resolved worktree path first. Continue only if it matches the expected sibling worktrees directory.
Review Cleanup Risk
Before removing branch experiment/payment-flow, check whether local work may be lost and explain the cleanup impact.
Best Practices
- Run the skill from the correct Git repository.
- Confirm the branch name and resolved worktree path before cleanup.
- Commit, stash, or back up local changes before removing a worktree.
Avoid
- Do not run cleanup with a guessed or partial branch name.
- Do not use this skill on worktrees that may contain unsaved work.
- Do not expect this skill to remove remote branches.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does this skill remove?
It removes a local Git worktree for a named branch and deletes the matching local branch when present.
Does it remove remote branches?
No. It only targets local worktrees and local branches.
Where does it expect worktrees to exist?
It expects a sibling worktrees directory based on the current repository name.
Does it protect uncommitted work?
No. Users should commit, stash, or back up local changes before running cleanup.
Can Claude, Codex, or Claude Code use it?
Yes. The report declares support for Claude, Codex, and Claude Code.
When should I use it?
Use it after a branch worktree is no longer needed and local cleanup is safe.
