What problem does it solve? Managing parallel branches, risky refactors, or background agent tasks in a single Git checkout leads to context switching, half-committed work, and broken working environments. This Skill provides a structured protocol for creating, tracking, integrating, and cleaning up Git worktrees as isolated coding lanes. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Safe Lane Setup: Creates worktrees under .slim/worktrees/<slug>/ with pre-flight checks, branch conflict detection, and managed .gitignore/.ignore blocks. - State Tracking: Maintains a .slim/worktrees.json manifest recording each lane's branch, path, purpose, owner, and status. - Guarded Integration & Cleanup: Enforces diff review, user confirmation before merges or destructive commands, and safe worktree removal with pruning. - Use Case: You need to refactor an authentication flow while keeping your main checkout stable. The Skill creates an isolated worktree lane, delegates work to sub-agents inside it, validates the diff against the base branch, and cleans up after an approved merge. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to create a new worktree lane for your feature, for example: set up an isolated worktree for refactoring the authentication module off the main branch.
