# Set up dev environment in worktree Prepare the worktree at `$ARGUMENTS` for development. ## Steps ### 1. Run setup script ``` bash tools/setup_worktree_env.sh <worktree-path> ``` The script runs `make dev` and copies secrets without exposing credentials in the conversation. If it fails, report the error and stop. ### 2. Report Parse the script output for `SECRETS_SOURCE=` to determine what was used: - **`repo_root`**: Full credentials available — all destinations including remote (snowflake, bigquery, etc.) - **`dev_template`**: Local only — duckdb, dummy, filesystem, and container-based destinations (postgres, clickhouse, etc.) - **`none`**: No secrets found — warn the user ``` Dev environment ready: <worktree-path> - make dev: done - secrets.toml: <source> ```
