What I do
I guide you through creating and managing git worktrees for parallel development in this production project.
When to use me
ALWAYS use this skill before making any changes to the codebase. The project is in production and all development must happen in separate worktrees to avoid conflicts.
Workflow
1. Create a new branch
bash
git checkout -b feature/your-feature-name # or for bugfixes git checkout -b fix/your-fix-name
2. Create a worktree
bash
git worktree add ../worktree-name branch-name
3. Open a new tmux window with opencode
After creating the worktree, open a new tmux window and start opencode in the worktree directory (not the main orders directory):
bash
# Single command - creates tmux window, sets working directory to worktree, and starts opencode tmux new-window -n "worktree-name" -c /home/radbug/Work/worktree-name "opencode"
Or step-by-step:
bash
# Create a new tmux window (adds a window to current session) tmux new-window -n "worktree-name" # Navigate to the worktree directory in the new window tmux send-keys -t "worktree-name" "cd /home/radbug/Work/worktree-name" C-m # Start opencode in the worktree tmux send-keys -t "worktree-name" "opencode" C-m
Important: Opencode runs in the worktree folder (/home/radbug/Work/worktree-name), not in the main orders directory.
4. Work in the worktree
- •The new tmux window is now running opencode in the worktree directory
- •Make your changes and commits in the worktree
- •Run
npm run checkandnpm run lintbefore committing - •Test your changes thoroughly
- •Make your changes and commits
- •Run
npm run checkandnpm run lintbefore committing - •Test your changes thoroughly
4. Push to remote
bash
git push -u origin branch-name
5. Create a pull request
- •Create a PR for review from the worktree
- •Wait for approval before merging
6. Cleanup after merge
bash
git worktree remove ../worktree-name git branch -d branch-name
Important Notes
- •Each agent should work in its own worktree to avoid conflicts
- •Never make changes directly on the main branch
- •Always create a worktree for feature or bugfix work
- •Worktrees allow multiple agents to work on different branches simultaneously
- •The main worktree (this directory) should remain on main with production code
Current Status
Before starting any work, verify:
bash
git branch # should be on main or a feature branch git status # should be clean (no uncommitted changes) git worktree list # shows all existing worktrees
