How does this skill handle background tasks?

The skill uses a non-blocking pattern that allows Claude to initiate a task in a specific worktree and immediately return control to the user while the process continues.

How is work progress tracked across different worktrees?

The skill maintains a context file within each worktree that stores the last updated status, completed TODOs, and suggested next steps for seamless task resumption.

What is the primary benefit of using Git worktrees with Claude?

It allows Claude to operate on multiple branches simultaneously in separate directories, preventing context loss and eliminating the need for frequent stashing or committing of unfinished work.

Does it support custom branch naming conventions?

Yes, it follows a structured pattern for features, fixes, and reviews, ensuring that branch names and their corresponding directories remain consistent and organized.
