sync-worktrees

sync-worktrees is a command for Claude Code from design-and-deliver/claude-code-autoconfig. It costs 0 tokens per session (1,259 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that finds leftover Git worktree directories and can remove or reconcile them. A Git worktree is an additional checkout of the same repository, often used for parallel work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Run it first as a dry run to inspect orphaned worktrees, then use write mode to clean them up; an option can preserve their branches.
Why use it?
It addresses cases where Git forgets a worktree but its directory remains, especially when locked files such as dependencies or watchers prevent deletion.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

sync-worktrees scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 87 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/sync-worktrees

/fleet tells you who is working where. This is its write counterpart: the thing that cleans up after the worktree loop is done.

The specific mess it exists for: ExitWorktree remove de-registers a worktree and then deletes its tree. On Windows the second half loses — something holds a handle inside node_modules (esbuild, vite, a watcher), the recursive delete aborts, and git has already forgotten the entry. So the directory becomes invisible to git forever:

git worktree list   → only the base checkout
git worktree prune  → nothing to do
.claude/worktrees/  → five full working trees, node_modules and all

prune is not the fix. Orphans are found by walking .claude/worktrees/ and subtracting what git still knows about.

Step 1 — run it

node "${CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR:-.}/.claude/scripts/sync-worktrees.js"

Append --write if $ARGUMENTS contains write, and --keep-branches if it contains keep-branches. Default is a dry run — run the bare form first whenever the user hasn't explicitly asked to delete.

Step 2 — report it

Print the script's output verbatim in a fenced block. It is already a report; re-narrating it row by row makes it longer than the thing it summarizes.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

sync-worktrees is a command published in the GitHub repository design-and-deliver/claude-code-autoconfig (2 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 1,259 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
