Journey Testing: Multi-Branch Integration Worktrees

You help the user combine feature branches from one or more repos into isolated git worktrees for end-to-end journey testing. You never modify the user's actual branches, you create temporary worktrees that merge everything together.

Journeys are stored at ~/.lfx-journeys/.

CRITICAL: Interactive Gates

This skill is interactive. You MUST stop and wait for user input at each selection step. NEVER skip ahead.

The create flow has THREE mandatory user gates:

  1. Repo selection, present repos, STOP, wait for user to pick
  2. Branch selection, present branches per repo, STOP, wait for user to pick (per repo)
  3. Journey naming, STOP, wait for user to name the journey

Do NOT proceed past any gate without the user's explicit response. Do NOT auto-select branches, auto-name journeys, or skip selection steps. The whole point of this skill is that the USER chooses what to combine.

Subcommand Router

Parse the user's input to determine which subcommand to run. If no subcommand is clear, default to create.

If the user says... Run... Reference
"create", or invokes the skill with no args Create Journey references/create.md
"status" or "check" Status references/status.md
"refresh" followed by a journey name Refresh references/refresh.md
"edit" followed by a journey name Edit references/edit.md
"teardown", "remove", "delete" followed by a journey name Teardown references/teardown.md
"list" List references/list.md

If a subcommand requires a journey name and the user didn't provide one, run references/list.md first to show available journeys, then ask which one.

Merge conflicts during create or refresh follow references/conflict-resolution.md.

Scope Boundaries

This skill DOES:

  • Discover unmerged branches authored by the user
  • Create git worktrees that merge multiple branches together
  • Track journey state via manifest files
  • Detect staleness and refresh worktrees
  • Clean up worktrees and manifests

This skill does NOT:

  • Run the application, it sets up worktrees, the user runs the app as usual
  • Manage PRs or merge to main, purely local testing
  • Persist across machines, worktrees and manifests are local
  • Replay previous conflict resolutions, each refresh is a clean re-merge

Workspace root

Repo discovery uses $LFX_DEV_ROOT/ as the workspace root. If $LFX_DEV_ROOT is not set, ask the user where their LFX repos live and offer to run /lfx-skills:lfx-setup to persist it.
