BC subwave-worktree-dev

Stage a SUB/WAVE git worktree so the dev stack can run from it, then start it. A git worktree only checks out tracked files — the dev stack also needs gitignored files (controller/.env, web/.env.local, docker/.env, web/node_modules, and a state/ directory) that this skill copies or scaffolds from the main working tree. Use this skill whenever the user wants to test branch changes in a worktree, run subwave from a worktree, "prep"/"set up" a worktree for dev mode, or asks to copy env files / node_modules / state into a worktree — phrases like "test this worktree in dev mode", "start subwave from the worktree", "prep the worktree", "run my branch locally", "copy the required files into the worktree". Do NOT use it for the main checkout (that's subwave-control) or for production.

The skillemall take

The skill stages a git worktree for SUB/WAVE with a complete dev environment. It promises to copy or scaffold gitignored files (env files, node_modules, state/) that worktree won't fetch from the repo, then start the stack. Three components, two scripts, no critical errors—B grades on quality (88) and process (62) suggest functional but unpolished code. Sandbox untested; one medium-severity finding left unexplained. Supports all major platforms.

Worth installing if you test branches via worktree regularly and tire of copying env files by hand. Skip it if worktree is exotic to your workflow.

What is at stake

Medium-severity findings: the skill is probably honest, but read what alarmed the scanner.

Dangerous commands medium severity

Below is the worst case for this category. The finding here is medium: the guard saw a sign, not a proof.

If you install

The skill contains commands that delete files, rewrite disks or execute code fetched from the network. The agent may run them without asking if it believes the instructions require it.

For the author

Replace destructive commands with safe equivalents that ask for confirmation, scope them to one folder, and stop piping curl into a shell: pin a version and a checksum.

How to improve

    For the model run — optional
    • Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
    • A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

    Against the Agent Skills spec

    • note edit-residue the text marks something as outdated (lines 16, 18): check that old rules are not kept next to new ones — the full check reads the text for contradictions

    Process rating: all ten parameters 62/100

    • 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
    • 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
    • 60Tools and files. Uses tools (web, node) that frontmatter does not declare

    Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
