What problem does it solve? Managing parallel branches, risky refactors, or background agent work in a single Git checkout leads to context switching, half-committed states, and broken working environments. This Skill provides a safe, structured protocol for creating and managing Git worktrees as isolated coding lanes. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Isolated Lane Creation: Creates worktrees under .slim/worktrees/<slug>/ with branch naming conventions and a JSON manifest (.slim/worktrees.json) for tracking lane state. - Safety Guardrails: Enforces pre-flight checks, mandatory user confirmation before destructive Git operations, and managed .gitignore/.ignore blocks for lane artifacts. - Full Lifecycle Workflow: Covers planning, delegation to sub-agents, diff-based integration review, and cleanup/pruning of finished lanes. - Use Case: You need to refactor an authentication flow while keeping your main checkout stable. The Orchestrator creates a worktree lane, delegates edits to sub-agents inside it, validates the diff against the base branch, and merges only after your approval. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to create a new worktree lane for your feature, for example: set up an isolated worktree for the auth refactor based on the main branch.
