Automated safety checks
This skill failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.
Declares what it does: failed
No SKILL.md was found in the skill's directory.
SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.
No undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.
No obfuscated payloads: passed
No encoded or obfuscated payloads.
No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.
No credential access: passed
Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.
Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.
No pipe-to-shell installers: passed
No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.
No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

About this skill
What it does
This skill enables an AI agent to manage multiple Git worktrees, allowing users to work on different branches or repositories simultaneously from a single working directory. It provides the ability to clone, switch between, and manage separate Git environments efficiently without needing to navigate through multiple directories.
When to use it
- You need to work on multiple branches of a project at the same time.
- You're collaborating on several related projects and want isolated Git environments for each.
- You are debugging or testing changes across different versions of a codebase simultaneously.
Key capabilities
- Clone and manage multiple Git repositories in parallel.
- Switch between worktrees without changing directories.
- Isolate branch-specific changes to avoid conflicts.
Example prompts
- "Set up separate worktrees for the
mainandfeature-xbranches of my project." - "Clone a new repository into a worktree so I can test it alongside my current code."
- "Switch to the
devworktree to review recent changes without affecting themainbranch."
Tips & gotchas
- Ensure Git version 2.23 or higher is installed, as worktrees require this feature.
- Worktrees are tied to a specific repository; avoid using them across unrelated projects to prevent confusion.
