Defame1297 3dd5387671 refactor(git-worktrees): retrofit to the ADR-0020 context contract
Description 592 -> 248 chars, body 756 -> 515 words, Gotchas 8 -> 4.

The audit found the dispatch table had no row for a worktree on an
existing local branch, so that request fell to the adjacent -B row, which
resets the branch to HEAD and discards its commits. Non-destructive create
is now the first row and -B names its own destructiveness. Adds the missing
lock/unlock row and repair's run-from constraint.

# git-worktrees
Manage git worktrees to enable multi-branch parallel development across isolated directories.
## What it does
This skill handles worktree operations within the git workflow suite. It creates, lists, locks/unlocks, moves, removes, prunes, and repairs worktrees — letting an agent work on multiple branches simultaneously without stashing. It returns structured results (paths, branches, lock status) suitable for agent composition. For multi-step flows spanning branch strategy plus worktree setup, `git-workflow` handles the broader orchestration and delegates the worktree mechanics here.
## Usage
```
/git-worktrees
```
Describe your worktree task: create a worktree for a branch, list existing worktrees, lock one for removable media, move, remove, prune, or repair. The skill will handle the operation with appropriate safety checks and return results.
