/switch-feature - Commit and Switch to Another Worktree

Description

Commits or stashes current work, then helps you switch to another existing worktree.

Usage

/switch-feature

What It Does

Step 1: Check Git Status

git status --porcelain

Step 2: Handle Uncommitted Changes

If there are uncommitted changes:

Ask user:

⚠️  You have uncommitted changes. What would you like to do?

1. Commit changes
2. Stash changes
3. Discard changes (dangerous!)
4. Cancel

Option 1: Commit Changes

# Show current changes
git status

# Ask for commit message
git add -A
git commit -m "{user_message}"
git push origin HEAD

Option 2: Stash Changes

# Stash with message
git stash push -m "{user_message}"

Option 3: Discard Changes

# Warn and confirm
git reset --hard HEAD
git clean -fd

Option 4: Cancel

❌ Operation cancelled.

Step 3: List Available Worktrees

git worktree list

Display to user:

Available worktrees:

1. /Users/user/project (main) [main branch]
2. /Users/user/project/tree/feature/gallery-123 [feature/gallery-123]
3. /Users/user/project/tree/bug/main-app-456 [bug/main-app-456]
4. /Users/user/project/tree/feature/auth-567 [feature/auth-567]

Which worktree would you like to switch to? (1-4)

Step 4: Provide Switch Instructions

After user selects worktree #2:

✅ To switch to feature/gallery-123:

cd tree/feature/gallery-123

Or use this command to switch and open in new terminal:
cd tree/feature/gallery-123 && exec $SHELL

Your current changes have been committed/stashed safely.

Benefits

✅ Safe Switching - Never lose uncommitted work ✅ Quick Navigation - See all worktrees at a glance ✅ Clean Transitions - Proper commit/stash before switching ✅ Simple - One command to handle everything

Notes

This is a slash command (one-shot operation)
It doesn't actually change your terminal's directory (can't do that)
Instead, it provides the cd command for you to run
Your changes are safely committed or stashed before switching
