name: worktrees description: | This skill creates git worktrees with tmux sessions and spawns Claude with a prompt. Triggers: "create a worktree", "new worktree", "worktree for branch", "spawn worktree", "parallel branch", "work on branch in new session", "worktree-branch script". Creates isolated worktree directories with Claude Code running automatically. Not for regular git branching or checkout operations.

Worktrees

Create a git worktree in a new tmux session with Claude Code running a specific prompt.

Command

Copy~/Scripts/worktree-branch --detached --pull --cmd 'amp "$PROMPT"' "$BRANCH"

Parameters

• $BRANCH - Branch name or remote/branch (e.g., my-feature)
• $PROMPT - The prompt to pass to Claude Code in the new worktree

Examples

Copy# Create worktree from new branch with Claude prompt
~/Scripts/worktree-branch --detached --pull --cmd 'amp "fix the login bug"' fix-login

# Create worktree from remote branch
~/Scripts/worktree-branch --detached --pull --cmd 'amp "implement the feature from the PR description"' origin/feature-branch

Notes

• Uses --detached to stay in current tmux session
• Uses --pull to automatically pull main if behind (no prompt)
• The new worktree session is created but not switched to
• Claude Code starts automatically in the ai1 window with the given prompt
