Worker Worktree Skill

"Parallel development without conflicts – each agent works in their own worktree."

Verification Checklist

Before starting work:

• Worktree exists (git worktree list shows your worktree)
• In worktree directory (pwd shows ../{agent}-worktree)
• On correct branch (git branch shows {agent}-worktree)
• Main branch merged (git merge origin/main completed)
• No merge conflicts (git status is clean)
• Latest changes pulled (git log shows recent main commits)

Quick Reference Commands

Worktree Naming Convention

MUST follow this pattern: {agent}-worktree

Initial Setup (One-Time Per Agent)

# Check if worktree already exists
git worktree list

# If NOT in list, create worktree with dedicated branch
git worktree add ../{agent}-worktree -b {agent}-worktree

# Verify creation
git worktree list

Daily Workflow

Before Starting ANY Task

⚠️ CRITICAL: You MUST navigate to your worktree BEFORE doing any development work!

Why navigate to worktree first?

• All code/asset edits MUST happen in worktree
• Commits go to worktree branch, NOT main
• QA validates from worktree, then merges to main
• Prevents file conflicts between parallel agents

Why merge main first?

• Ensures you have the latest changes from the other agent's work
• Prevents out-of-date code conflicts
• Both agents' work gets integrated through main

Unit, E2E, and Playwright MCP Testing Protocol

Remember to always run the tests in the target worktree branches for validation

• Move to the target worktree
• Load the correct skills for this scope
• Run validation process
• During validation process, always double check in which port the client is running for proper URL check
• Investigate in case of issues and iterate until fixed

1. Developer in worktree:

├── Reads PRD from master (Get-MasterPrdPath) ├── Reads messages from CLI --message argument ├── Updates PRD status in master (atomic write) ├── Writes response file for next agent ├── Writes code in worktree ├── Commits code to worktree branch └── Sends validation_request via response file

1. PM in master:

├── Reads PRD (sees worker status updates) ├── Reads messages (sees worker messages) └── Coordinates everything

1. QA in master:

├── Navigates to worktree for testing ├── If validation passes: merges to master └── If validation fails: sends bug_report via master queue
