git-worktrees

Establish or reuse an isolated Git worktree for new work or a named branch, PR, tag, or commit. Use whenever the user asks to create or enter a worktree or separate Git checkout, wants parallel work without disturbing the current checkout, or another workflow requires Git checkout isolation.

Quality

Content

85%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

The body is an exemplary lean, executable routing skill with clear sequencing and a strong result/blocked contract. Its main weakness is progressive disclosure: the three referenced environment documents do not exist in the bundle, so the navigation it depends on cannot be validated.

Suggestions

Ship the referenced claude-code.md, harness-native.md, and git-only.md alongside SKILL.md so the one-level-deep routing it relies on is actually resolvable.

Add a brief validate-then-retry checkpoint (or note that validation lives in each environment doc) for the destructive checkout step, since Step 2 delegates creation to files that may not yet exist.

Mention the scripts/copy_worktreeinclude.py helper in the body or in the relevant environment doc, since it is part of the bundle but never referenced from SKILL.md.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Lean, dense, and assumes Claude's competence: it gives git rev-parse commands without explaining what a worktree is, with no padding or restatement of known concepts; every section earns its tokens.

5 / 5

Actionability

Provides copy-paste-ready, executable bash commands (git rev-parse --absolute-git-dir, --show-superproject-working-tree, --show-toplevel, etc.) covering the detection and reuse cases, plus a concrete result-contract template.

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

A clear numbered Step 0→1→2 sequence with explicit decision branches and a blocked-state contract; however creation/destructive operations are routed to separate docs and the in-file steps include only detection validation, not a validate-then-retry loop for the actual destructive checkout.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

It routes to three one-level-deep references (claude-code.md, harness-native.md, git-only.md), but those referenced files are not present in the bundle, so the disclosure structure cannot be verified and the body inlines routing logic that depends on missing files.

Description

87%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

The description is concrete, trigger-rich, and explicitly answers both what and when in third person, with comprehensive natural synonyms. It is slightly below a perfect specificity score because the action verbs overlap around a single capability rather than enumerating several distinct operations.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists several concrete actions — 'Establish or reuse an isolated Git worktree', 'create or enter a worktree' — but reuses overlapping verbs for a single capability rather than enumerating multiple distinct actions, leaving minor coverage gaps.

4 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly states what it does (establish or reuse an isolated Git worktree) and when to use it ('Use whenever the user asks to create or enter a worktree... wants parallel work... or another workflow requires Git checkout isolation').

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Covers the natural terms a user would say — 'worktree', 'separate Git checkout', 'parallel work', 'branch, PR, tag, or commit', 'Git checkout isolation' — with strong synonym coverage.

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

It targets a clear niche (Git worktree isolation) with distinct triggers, but the broad phrase 'parallel work without disturbing the current checkout' could lightly overlap with generic branch/checkout skills.
