Isolate repository edits in a Git worktree before starting a feature, fix, or documentation change. Preserve a worktree already assigned to the same task. Read-only reviews and investigations do not need a new worktree.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# New Feature

Each editing task gets its own worktree and branch, created from the latest
`origin/main` unless the user specifies a different base. Read-only work can
use the existing checkout. Never build on `main` or reuse another task's work.

## Check existing isolation first

Inspect `git worktree list`, `git status --short`, the current branch, and the
session's task assignment. If the environment already created a worktree for
this task, keep its path and branch and skip steps 3 and 4. In step 5, use the
actual assigned path. Do not infer isolation from the editor name or a branch
prefix alone. Otherwise follow all steps.

## Steps

1. **Sync**: `git fetch origin`.

2. **Scope check**: run `gh pr list` and skim the open PRs' changed files
   (`gh pr diff <n> --name-only`). For shared files, read the overlapping
   diffs. Independent edits may proceed in your own worktree. Ask for direction
   only when the changes conflict in behavior, require another task's unfinished
   work, or ownership is unclear. Check shared checkouts for uncommitted work
   without changing it. On another hosting platform, use its equivalent PR/MR

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add michaelshimeles/skills/new-feature@sha256:6d658d5a49f542b1

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261015.ababbf7, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
