# Task: Setup Worktrees

> ✅ **Works with any IDE** - This task provides git worktree setup instructions

## Description

Creates git worktrees for each story in the parallel development plan, ensuring clean branch setup and proper tracking.

## Prerequisites

- Clean git status (no uncommitted changes)
- Parallel plan created
- Git 2.7+ installed

## Steps

1. **Verify Git Status**

   ```bash
   # Ensure clean working directory
   git status

   # Stash any changes if needed
   git stash push -m "Before parallel development setup"
   ```

2. **Create Phase 1 Worktrees**

   ```bash
   # For each story in Phase 1
   git worktree add ../ck-website-services feature/services-content
   git worktree add ../ck-website-jobs feature/job-filtering
   ```

3. **Create Subsequent Phase Worktrees**

   ```bash
   # Phase 2
   git worktree add ../ck-website-cases feature/case-studies

   # Phase 3
   git worktree add ../ck-website-analytics feature/analytics-tracking
   ```

4. **Verify Worktree Creation**

   ```bash
   # List all worktrees
   git worktree list

   # Should show:
   # /path/to/ck-website                 [main]
   # /path/to/ck-website-services        [feature/services-content]
   # /path/to/ck-website-jobs           [feature/job-filtering]
   # etc.
   ```

5. **Initialize Each Worktree**
   For each worktree:

   ```bash
   cd ../ck-website-services

   # Ensure dependencies are installed
   npm install

   # Create initial commit
   git commit --allow-empty -m "chore: initialize feature/services-content branch"

   # Push branch to remote
   git push -u origin feature/services-content
   ```

6. **Create Worktree Status Script**
   ```bash
   cat > "$COORD_DIR/check-worktrees.sh" << 'EOF'
   #!/bin/bash
   echo "=== Worktree Status ==="
   for wt in $(git worktree list --porcelain | grep "worktree" | cut -d' ' -f2); do
     echo -e "\n📁 $(basename $wt):"
     cd "$wt" 2>/dev/null && git status -sb
   done
   EOF
   chmod +x "$COORD_DIR/check-worktrees.sh"
   ```

## Error Handling

### Worktree Already Exists

```bash
# Remove existing worktree
git worktree remove ../ck-website-services
# Or force remove
git worktree remove --force ../ck-website-services
```

### Branch Already Exists

```bash
# Delete local branch
git branch -d feature/services-content
# Or force delete
git branch -D feature/services-content
```

### Directory Already Exists

```bash
# Remove directory (ensure it's not important!)
rm -rf ../ck-website-services
```

## Output

- Created worktrees for all stories
- Feature branches created and tracked
- Status checking script available

## Next Steps

- Launch dev agents in each worktree
- Begin parallel development
- Monitor progress
