worktree

A set of commands for managing Git worktrees, which are separate working folders for different branches, while developing in parallel with Claude Code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create worktrees with tmux sessions, list their branches and status, switch between them, remove unused ones, find stale ones, or sync them with upstream.
Why use it?
It keeps parallel branches organized and provides commands for creating, viewing, switching, deleting, cleaning, and syncing worktrees.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 10 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 382 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
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

worktree 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 yesterday.

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.

What it actually says

Worktree Management

Manage git worktrees for parallel development workflows.

Usage

  • /worktree create <branch> - Create new worktree with tmux session
  • /worktree list - List all worktrees
  • /worktree switch <name> - Switch to worktree
  • /worktree delete <name> - Delete worktree
  • /worktree cleanup - Clean stale worktrees
  • /worktree sync - Sync worktrees with upstream

Current Context

Current git status: !git status --short 2>/dev/null || echo "Not a git repository"

Current worktrees: !git worktree list 2>/dev/null || echo "No worktrees found"

Active tmux sessions: !tmux list-sessions 2>/dev/null | grep owt || echo "No owt sessions"

Instructions

Parse the user's subcommand from $ARGUMENTS and execute the appropriate owt command:

  1. create: Run owt create <branch> - Creates worktree with tmux session and Claude Code
  2. list: Run owt list --all - Shows all worktrees with status
  3. switch: Run owt switch <name> --tmux - Switches to worktree's tmux session
  4. delete: Run owt delete <name> - Deletes worktree and its tmux session
  5. cleanup: Run owt cleanup - Shows stale worktrees (dry-run by default)
  6. sync: Run owt sync --all - Syncs all worktrees with upstream

After executing, provide a summary of the result and suggest next steps.

Changes

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.

worktree is a command published in the GitHub repository gitpcl/openorchestrator (5 stars, last pushed 27d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 10 tokens to every session and 382 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. 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.
