remove

A cleanup command for removing a Git worktree, which is a separate working directory linked to a repository, and unregistering its worker session.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to remove a worktree by path or branch name, unregister its worker, optionally force cleanup, and optionally delete the branch.
Why use it?
It removes finished or unwanted parallel workspaces and can handle uncommitted changes when forced. It can also delete the related branch.

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

remove 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 107 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Remove Worktree

Clean up a git worktree created by fork-terminal and unregister its worker.

What This Does

  1. Unregister the worker from the coordination file
  2. Remove the git worktree directory
  3. Optionally delete the branch if --delete-branch is specified

Arguments

Argument Description Default
--path Worktree path or branch name required
--force Force removal with uncommitted changes false
--delete-branch Also delete the git branch false

Examples

# Remove by path
/fork-terminal:remove --path ../my-project-auth-refactor

# Remove by branch name
/fork-terminal:remove --path worktree/auth-refactor

# Force remove with uncommitted changes
/fork-terminal:remove --path ../my-project-tests --force

# Remove worktree and delete the branch
/fork-terminal:remove --path worktree/old-feature --delete-branch --force

Execution

Step 1: Unregister Worker

python3 ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/fork-terminal/tools/coordination.py unregister --path "<path>"

Step 2: Remove Worktree

python3 ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/fork-terminal/tools/worktree_manager.py remove "<path>" [--force] [--delete-branch]

Or combined:

# Get branch name first if needed
git worktree list --porcelain | grep -A2 "<path>"

# Remove worktree
git worktree remove [--force] "<path>"

# Delete branch if requested
git branch -D "<branch-name>"

Safety Checks

Before removing, the command will:

  1. Check for uncommitted changes (unless --force)
  2. Warn if the worktree is the current directory
  3. Confirm branch deletion if --delete-branch

After Removal

The worktree directory and its contents will be deleted. If you have uncommitted changes you want to keep:

  1. Commit them first in the worktree
  2. Or use git stash before removing
  3. Or copy files manually before removal

Troubleshooting

"Worktree is locked"

git worktree unlock <path>
/fork-terminal:remove --path <path>

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.
