Worktree safety

Skill yangshu2087/Codex/.agents/skills/worktree-safety

Safely operate in repositories that use Git worktrees or live inside a meta-workspace with multiple repos. Use when a task involves git roots, linked worktrees, pointer directories, or avoiding the wrong repository context.From its SKILL.md

Worktree Safety

Use this skill when the user task touches Git worktrees, multiple adjacent repositories, or a meta-workspace that is not itself a repo.

Workflow

Identify the real repository before running Git commands:
- git rev-parse --show-toplevel
- git worktree list when relevant
Distinguish normal repos from pointer directories and wrapper workspaces.
Do not run root-level Git commands from /Users/yangshu/Codex; it is a meta-workspace, not a repository.
When a linked worktree exists, assume branch and checkout operations can affect another active checkout.
If the task is only about Codex config or AGENTS files, edit the intended repo directly and avoid unrelated branch manipulation.
Verify with repository-local Git commands after edits.

Local context

/Users/yangshu/Codex/codex-worktree-base is a real repo that hosts a persistent worktree.
/Users/yangshu/Codex/projects/codex-main is a normal local repo.
/Users/yangshu/Codex/projects/codex-head and /Users/yangshu/Codex/codex-worktree-head are worktree-related locations and should not be treated like independent repos without checking first.
