Git-temp (local scratchpad for AI agents that won't clutter Git status)

Git-temp is a lightweight command-line tool that creates a local AI scratchpad inside a Git repository without cluttering the working directory or Git status. It generates a temp/ folder (or custom-named folder) containing subdirectories for scripts, dumps, drafts, and experiments, and automatically adds the folder to .git/info/exclude so it is ignored by Git locally but remains visible to editors and AI tooling. The tool provides commands to initialize, check status, clean, and integrate scratchpad guidelines into existing agent instruction files. It is designed to keep scratch work searchable and taggable while preventing accidental commits and avoiding the pitfalls of shared .gitignore rules or nested temp/.gitignore files.
