Skill instructions
Set Up Reuse the existing worktree if present, otherwise create one. Run subsequent steps from the worktree directory. pwsh $pr = <N $repo = git rev-parse --show-toplevel Guard against recursion if the current working tree is already a worktree under <repo.worktrees if ((Split-Path (Split-Path $repo -Parent) -Leaf) -match '.worktrees$') { $repo = (git worktree list --porcelain | Select-String -Pattern '^worktree ' | Select-Object -First 1).Line.Substring(9) } $branch = gh pr view $pr --json headRefName -q .headRefName $folder = $branch -replace '[^A-Za-z0-9.-]', '-' $worktree = Join-Path "$repo.worktrees" $folder if (-not (Test-Path $worktree)) { git worktree add --no-checkout $worktree HEAD Push-Location $worktree gh pr checkout $pr Pop-Location } Push-Location $worktree Tear Down When the caller is done with the worktree and didn't make any changes, remove it and the local branch. Otherwise, instruct the user how to do this. pwsh Pop-Location git worktree remove $worktree git branch
