Worktrunk 
> **October 2026**: Worktrunk was released at the start of the year, and has quickly become the most popular git worktree manager. It's built with love (there's no slop!). Please let me know any frictions at all; I'm intensely focused on continuing to make Worktrunk excellent, and the biggest help is folks posting problems they perceive.
Worktrunk is a CLI for git worktree management, designed for running AI agents in parallel.
Worktrunk's three core commands make worktrees as easy as branches. Plus, Worktrunk has a bunch of quality-of-life features to simplify working with many parallel changes, including hooks to automate local workflows & copy-on-write build caches.

## Context: git worktrees
AI agents like Claude Code and Codex can handle longer tasks without
supervision, such that it's possible to manage 5-10+ in parallel. Git's native
worktree feature gives each agent its own working directory, so they don't step
on each other's changes.
But the git worktree UX is clunky. Even a task as small as starting a new
worktree requires typing the branch name three times: `git worktree add -b feat
../repo.feat`, then `cd ../repo.feat`.
## Worktrunk makes git worktrees as easy as branches
Worktrees are addressed by branch name; paths are computed from a configurable template. Commands that take a branch also accept the path of the worktree it is checked out in.
 Start with the core commands 
**Core commands:**
 Task 
 Worktrunk 
 Plain git 
 Switch worktrees 
 wt switch feat 
 cd ../repo.feat 
 Create + start Claude 
 wt switch -c -x claude feat 
 git worktree add -b feat ../repo.feat && \
cd ../repo.feat && \
claude 
 Clean up 
 wt remove 
 cd ../repo && \
git worktree remove ../repo.feat && \
git branch -d feat 
 List with status 
 wt list 
 git worktree list (paths only) 
 Expand into the more advanced commands as needed 
 Workflow automation: 
- **Hooks** — run commands on create, pre-merge, post-merge, etc
- **LLM commit messages** — generate commit messages from diffs
- **Merge workflow** — squash, rebase, merge, clean up in one command
- **Interactive picker** — browse worktrees with streaming CI status and diff, log, PR and comment previews
- **Share build caches** — ten worktrees get `target/`, `node_modules/`, etc without building or copying them (on APFS, btrfs, and XFS)
- **`wt list --full`** — CI status and AI-generated summaries per branch
- **PR checkout** — `wt switch pr:123` to jump straight to a PR's branch
- **Dev server per worktree** — `hash_port` template filter gives each worktree a unique port
- **Aliases & per-branch variables** — custom `wt ` commands and branch-scoped state for hook templates
- ...and **lots more**
