git-worktrees skillA
git-worktrees is agent-read markdown (skill) from jnpiyush/agentx: Run parallel agent sessions on the same repo using git worktrees without corrupting the primary checkout. Use when an agent needs an isolated working directory for a prototype, a long-running experiment, a parallel branch, or a deploy artifact, especially when Frontier is being driven from a single primary clone..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# Git Worktrees > WHEN: An agent (or two agents) needs an isolated working directory on the same repository -- for a parallel branch, a deploy-prototype run, an experimentation-loop attempt, or a long investigation that should not touch the primary checkout's working tree. ## When to Use This Skill Load this skill when: - Two agents need to operate on the same repository in parallel - An experimentation-loop attempt needs its own working tree so the main checkout stays clean - A deploy / prototype build needs an isolated `dist/` and `node_modules` without polluting the primary tree - A long debugging session needs to compare two branches side-by-side without stashing Skip when: - The change is a single in-place edit on the current branch - The user has explicitly asked you to operate only inside the primary checkout - The repo contains active submodules that have not been audited for worktree safety ## Prerequisites - `git` 2.5+ (worktree command), 2.20+ recommended for `worktree remove` - Write access to the worktrees parent directory - Knowledge of whether the repo uses submodules (worktrees + submodules need extra care) ## Rationalization Table …

Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
