Init Effort

An effort is work big enough for its own branch and pull request: a feature, a new app, a refactor, a re-architecture. Do routine upkeep, such as data edits and small fixes, in the current checkout without this skill; the project may list what counts as routine there.

Both the effort's thinking now and its build later happen in the worktree this skill creates. Write only into that worktree and, for a new project, the new repo, so the repository this session was started in stays as it was.

Parameters

• <worktree-tool>: the tool that makes and frees worktrees, e.g. treehouse, or plain git worktrees.
• <session-host>: where agent sessions run, e.g. herdr, Claude Code Desktop, Codex Desktop.
• <agent>: the command that starts a new agent session, e.g. claude or codex, with its flags.
