Create Isolated Git Worktrees
Running several branches locally can cause port and configuration conflicts. This skill invokes a project slash command to create isolated worktrees with separate ports and startup details.

Test it
Using "create-worktree-skill". Create a worktree for feature-dashboard.
Expected outcome:
The skill runs the configured worktree command for feature-dashboard, then reports the dashboard URL, assigned ports, and lifecycle notes.
Using "create-worktree-skill". Set up hotfix-security with port offset 5.
Expected outcome:
The skill creates the hotfix worktree with the requested offset and highlights the resulting service ports.
Using "create-worktree-skill". Create worktrees for feature-a, feature-b, and feature-c.
Expected outcome:
The skill runs the configured setup once for each branch and reports each branch environment separately.
Security Audit
Medium RiskThe static backtick findings are Markdown formatting false positives; no Ruby or shell backtick execution appears in SKILL.md. The skill delegates to a project slash command that creates files, installs dependencies, starts services, and kills occupied ports.

Skillstore Score
Why this score Evidence Confidence: HighWhat You Can Build
Parallel Feature Development
Create an isolated worktree for a feature branch while the main checkout stays available.
Hotfix Environment Setup
Create a separate hotfix worktree with a specific port offset for local testing.
Multi-Branch Review
Create several branch environments so related changes can run side by side.
Try These Prompts
Use the worktree skill to create a worktree for branch feature-dashboard.
Use the worktree skill to create a worktree for branch hotfix-security with port offset 5.
Use the worktree skill to create worktrees for feature-a, feature-b, and feature-c.
Use the worktree skill for branch refactor-auth and summarize the URLs, ports, and stop instructions.
Best Practices
- Provide exact branch names so the skill can invoke the correct setup command.
- Use explicit port offsets when you already know which local ports are unavailable.
- Review the command output for URLs, ports, and stop instructions before using the environment.
Avoid
- Do not request worktree creation without a branch name.
- Do not use this skill in repositories that lack the required slash command.
- Do not pass branch names copied from untrusted text without checking them.
