Activation
This is the description your AI agent reads to decide when to run this skill — the better it matches your request, the more reliably it fires.
Create safe, deterministic git worktrees for large or risky workstreams using the repository-owned runtime helper and Windows-safe defaults.Key capabilities
- →Decide if workstream requires isolated worktree.
- →Prefer repository-owned script for worktree creation.
- →Keep branch and folder naming deterministic.
- →Preserve Windows-safe defaults.
- →Avoid destructive cleanup or implicit pruning.
How it works
The skill determines if a workstream needs an isolated Git worktree, then uses a repository-owned script to create it with deterministic and Windows-safe naming conventions.
Inputs & outputs
When to use worktree-isolation-engineer
- →Managing parallel feature development
- →Isolating experimental changes from the main branch
- →Handling large or high-risk development work

Responsibilities
- decide whether the current workstream should move into an isolated worktree
- prefer the repository-owned script
scripts/runtime/new-super-agent-worktree.ps1 - keep branch and folder naming deterministic
- preserve Windows-safe defaults
- avoid destructive cleanup or implicit pruning
Output contract
- whether worktree isolation is recommended
- worktree name slug
- branch name
- worktree root and path
- creation command or execution result
When not to use it
- →When the workstream does not require isolation.
- →When the user prefers manual worktree management.
Limitations
- →The skill prefers a specific repository-owned script.
- →The skill focuses on Git worktrees.
How it compares
This skill automates the creation of Git worktrees with specific naming and safety conventions using a repository-owned script, unlike generic Git worktree commands.
