list-branches

list-branches is a command for Claude Code from kayba-ai/agentic-context-engine. It costs 0 tokens per session (390 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A command that lists Git branches and shows whether each branch is linked to a worktree, which is a separate working folder for a branch.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to list convention-named branches, filter by type, show branches with worktrees, or include every local branch.
Why use it?
It makes branch locations and active worktrees easier to see than checking several Git commands separately.

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

list-branches 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 4d 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.

What it actually says

List project branches with their worktree status.

Arguments: $ARGUMENTS (optional filters)

  • No args: List all branches matching naming convention <type>/<developer>/<description>
  • --all: Include all branches (not just convention-named)
  • --worktrees: Only show branches with active worktrees
  • <type>: Filter by type (feature, fix, docs, refactor, test, chore)

Examples:

  • /list-branches → all convention-named branches
  • /list-branches feature → only feature branches
  • /list-branches --worktrees → only branches with worktrees
  • /list-branches --all → all branches including main

Steps:

  1. Get all local branches: git branch --format='%(refname:short)'
  2. Get worktree list: git worktree list --porcelain
  3. Parse worktree output to map branches to paths
  4. Filter branches based on arguments
  5. Format and display results

Output format:

Branch                              Worktree                         Status
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
* main                              .                                current
  feature/john/add-caching          ../feature-john-add-caching      active
  fix/jane/login-error              (no worktree)                    -

Summary: 3 branches, 2 with worktrees

Column meanings:

  • * indicates current branch
  • Worktree shows path relative to repo root, or "(no worktree)" if none
  • Status: "current" (HEAD), "active" (has worktree), "-" (no worktree)

Tips shown after output:

  • To create a worktree for a branch: git worktree add ../<path> <branch>
  • To remove a branch with worktree: use /remove-branch <branch>

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.
