monorepo-worktree-safety

Prevents dependency resolution failures and test discovery disasters when using git worktrees inside monorepos or submodules. Use this skill whenever: (1) creating a git worktree anywhere inside a monorepo or submodule directory, (2) you see errors like 'vitest: not found', unresolved @org/ or workspace: packages from a worktree path, (3) test suites are running unexpectedly duplicate or foreign tests, (4) someone asks to run coverage or CI checks from a branch worktree, (5) setting up parallel feature development in a monorepo using worktrees. If the user mentions worktrees AND a monorepo, always apply this skill — don't assume the environment is already safe.
