Automated summary
Creates an isolated Git worktree under worktree/<branch-name> after updating master and initializing submodules.
Strengths
- Chains master update, worktree creation and branch creation in a single command
- Automatically initializes recursive submodules inside the new worktree
- Prints the resulting path and current branch so you can confirm context
- Documents how to remove and list worktrees afterwards
Limitations
- Assumes a master branch and an origin remote; not configurable for main or other setups
- Hardcodes the submodule name (skills-vendor) and will fail on repos without it
- Does not check for or clean up existing worktrees or branches, so reusing a name errors out
Use it when starting a feature in a separate directory while keeping your main working copy untouched.
Avoid it on repositories whose default branch is not master or that have no submodules configured.
Security analysis
SafeThe skill performs standard git operations: checking out master, pulling latest changes, creating a worktree, and updating submodules. It does not include destructive commands, exfiltration, obfuscation, or disabling of safety features. The Bash usage is limited to legitimate version control tasks.

Create Git Worktree
Create a new worktree in worktree/<branch-name> with branch <branch-name>.
Execution
# Return to repo root
cd "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)"
# Pull latest master
git checkout master
git pull origin master
# Create worktree
git worktree add worktree/"$ARGUMENTS" -b "$ARGUMENTS"

- Worktree inherits

cd ../.. && git worktree remove worktree/"$ARGUMENTS" - List all worktrees:

From the file to a first result
The download contains exactly the content displayed on this page. This copy may differ from the latest version in the source repository.
View the source and supporting filesThis download contains SKILL.md only. Any scripts, references, templates and dependencies are not included. Get the required files from the source, preserving their directory structure, before continuing.
1. Download the file
Download SKILL.mdFrom the root of a test project, save the file as .skill-downloads/create-a-git-worktree-mtnxbr74/SKILL.md, or use the command below. This folder is for inspecting the skill before installation.
Command for macOS/Linux or WSL: requires a POSIX shell and curl. On Windows without WSL, use the download button and create the folder manually.
mkdir -p '.skill-downloads/create-a-git-worktree-mtnxbr74' && curl --fail --show-error --location 'https://skills-guides.com/api/skills/create-a-git-worktree-mtnxbr74/download' --output '.skill-downloads/create-a-git-worktree-mtnxbr74/SKILL.md.part' && mv '.skill-downloads/create-a-git-worktree-mtnxbr74/SKILL.md.part' '.skill-downloads/create-a-git-worktree-mtnxbr74/SKILL.md'2. Check prerequisites
Read SKILL.md before using it. If it references scripts or external services, inspect them and prepare the required access in your test environment.
Tools declared by the author (check availability in your agent): Bash
No recognized prerequisites section in this file. This does not mean it is self-contained: libraries, tools and access requirements may be mentioned elsewhere in the content or source repository.
The platforms on this page are catalog indications. The paths below follow tool documentation; they do not prove this skill has been run in those tools. No minimum tool version is confirmed for this listing.
3. Load the skill
After inspection, copy the complete folder into your project using one of the commands below, then open a new tool session. The command stops if a folder with the same name already exists: compare the files before replacing it.

OpenSkills must already be installed. The local install/read procedure is checked with OpenSkills 1.5.0, which requires Node.js ≥ 20.6.0. Catalog slugs are not resolved automatically.
Official OpenSkills installationopenskills install './.skill-downloads/create-a-git-worktree-mtnxbr74'openskills read 'create-a-git-worktree-mtnxbr74'Reading should display the installed file content and its base directory. It does not run the skill or install its dependencies.
For an agent that reads AGENTS.md, then sync the index. This command changes AGENTS.md: review the diff before using it.
openskills syncManual method or another tool: attach SKILL.md to a conversation, or open it in an agent that can read files. Include any required supporting resources. No universal folder is recognized by every tool.
4. Try a first task
Use a short, synthetic input: an API endpoint, a small document or an interface brief. In a new conversation, attach the file or give the agent its path, then adapt this request:
Read .skill-downloads/create-a-git-worktree-mtnxbr74/SKILL.md and apply its instructions to this example: [describe a test input]. Identify any missing files, dependencies or access. Produce the result requested by the skill without inventing data or running unreviewed scripts.Expected result: output matching the skill instructions, or a precise list of missing prerequisites. A read confirmation alone does not validate a first use. If an external resource is unavailable, that path remains untested.
React Hook Form Best Practices
Development
Master React Hook Form: avoid anti-patterns, manage subscriptions, and handle reset, dirty state, and controlled inputs correctly.
Emotion to Mantine Migration
Development
Migrate Emotion styled-components to Mantine components with style props and CSS modules. Use when converting .styled.tsx files or removing @emotion imports.
Scope Creep Detector
Development
Analyzes git diffs against a stated intent to detect scope creep, unrelated files, broad PRs, and oversized changes, then suggests keep, split, or justify actions.
