Finishing a Development Branch
obra/superpowers
Walks the last step of a branch: confirm tests pass, detect the git environment, ask how to integrate, carry out your choice and clean up the worktree.
Create a sibling git worktree and a new branch with the same name, copy local .env files, initialize the enterprise submodule, wire enterprise symlinks, and move the agent into the worktree.

What it does
Nv Worktree Create is an agent skill from novuhq/novu. Create a sibling git worktree and a new branch with the same name, copy local .env files, initialize the enterprise submodule, wire enterprise symlinks, and move the agent into the worktree. Use when the user asks for a worktree, parallel branch checkout, or /worktree with a branch name.
Its SKILL.md is about 880 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Development, covering Git worktrees. It works with Git. The repository describes itself as: The open-source communication infrastructure for agents and products.
When your agent uses it
- The user asks for a worktree
- Parallel branch checkout
- /worktree with a branch name
Example prompts
- “/nv-worktree-create”
Workflow steps
6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Preflight — from the main repo root
- Create — always a new branch and worktree
- Copy local env files — from the main checkout into the worktree (gitignored secrets only; not .env.example). Use the rsync recipe in…
- Enterprise submodule — from the worktree root (best-effort; do not block handoff)
- Hand off — move_agent_to_root with the absolute worktree path. Not move_agent_to_cloned_root.
- Confirm — branch name, worktree path, base ref, copied env files, enterprise submodule status.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d07cf17. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
gitpnpm
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
github.com
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Nv Worktree Create loads about 879 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 78 tokens; SKILL.md has 367 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check: notes
The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.
- NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:5
`.env*` files, initialize the enterprise submodule, wire enterprise symlinks, - NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:70
Then copy `.env*`, wire `.source` (link or submodule init) + `pnpm symlink:submodules`, `move_agent_to_root`. - NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:75
- Copy the whole repo — only `.env*`.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 367 words (~879 tokens).
“Goal: one name → new branch + sibling worktree at ../, ready to work in.”
- name
- nv-worktree-create
- disable-model-invocation
- true
