git-worktree-clone: one-command bare-repo worktree checkout - #63

Conversation
The bare + gitdir-pointer + worktree layout was two cryptic cheatsheet
fragments (git/worktree/{fetch,gitdir}) that assumed you remembered the
surrounding recipe, and the full procedure had no runnable home. A
justfile recipe would beg the question of which dotfiles copy to invoke
(/opt/dotfiles vs ~/dotfiles vs a working checkout); home-manager PATH
is the one distribution surface every machine class already shares.
Ship it as a writeShellApplication: git discovers git-* binaries as
subcommands, so it runs as `git worktree-clone [flags] <url|owner/repo>
[dir]`. Clone flags pass through, keeping repo-specific speedups (e.g.
ditto's README documents --filter=blob:none) canonical in the target
repo instead of here. Refuses to clobber an existing checkout.
Fold the two cheatsheet fragments into git/worktree/clone: the one
command plus the manual recipe it encodes.

…71) Lifts tools/claude/skills/{jujutsu,jj-extract-gitignores} off the stalled live-config branch (#39) into tools/agents/skills/ - the cross-tool layout from #40 - and wires both into agent-skills.nix alongside html-deck. #39 is the only open PR carrying jujutsu skills; #54's jj content is AGENTS.md prose and #63's is cheatsheets. Two things changed in the move rather than being copied verbatim: The three jujutsu reference docs now live in references/. #39 stored them flat while SKILL.md linked to references/*.md, so every progressive-disclosure link was dead as authored - the same class of bug as the html-deck template path fixed in #67. The skills were pinned to jj v0.36; this environment runs 0.43.0. Copying as-is would have shipped a skill recommending flags that no longer exist. Every version-sensitive claim was re-verified against the installed jj --help: - jj git push --allow-new is gone -> --named <name>=<rev> (auto-tracks) - jj describe --edit is gone; --editor survives with a different meaning (a modifier on --stdin/--message, not "open the editor") - remotes.<name>.auto-track-bookmarks is not a real key in 0.43, so the documented migration target for two deprecated git.* keys was a no-op - jj bookmark advance is new, but nothing advances on its own, so the "bookmarks aren't branches" rule stands rather than being contradicted Still accurate and left alone: -o/--onto canonical with -d aliased, squash --from/--into unrenamed, push -b/--change valid, and file untrack still requiring pre-ignored paths (upstream #5225 still open, so the Rule 2 workaround survives). #39's clean-git-history skill is deliberately left behind: it sits next to these two but is pure git, Ditto-SDK-specific, and malformed. Verified: statix, deadnix --fail, and nix flake check --all-systems clean; homeConfigurations."alyssa@dev".activationPackage builds and all five files materialize under ~/.claude/skills/ with references/ intact.
