name: setup-worktree description: Set up a new git worktree for this repo by copying gitignored files (bin/) and building server assets so pnpm dev works without errors
Purpose
When a new git worktree is created, gitignored files (like the Temporal CLI binary in bin/) are missing and server assets haven't been built. Run this skill to get a new worktree ready for development.
Steps
1. Find the main worktree path
git worktree list
The first entry is the main worktree. Use it as $MAIN.
2. Copy .env from the main worktree
MAIN=$(git worktree list | head -1 | awk '{print $1}')
cp $MAIN/.env ./.env
3. Build server assets
Builds the frontend into server/ui/assets/ which the Go server embeds. Required for pnpm dev to start.
pnpm build:server
pnpm dev should now start without errors.
Why each step is needed
| Step | Why |
|---|---|
Copy .env |
Gitignored — not present in a fresh worktree, needed for dev modes |
pnpm build:server |
Runs VITE_API= BUILD_PATH=server/ui/assets/local vite build — without this, pnpm dev fails because the embedded server assets are missing |
