About

What it is

Worktrunk is a command-line interface for managing Git worktrees. It lets you run multiple AI agents in parallel within their own isolated directories.

Who it suits

It is a match for developers who run several tasks or AI agents at once. It also helps those who need to maintain different versions of a codebase concurrently.

Where to use it

You can use Worktrunk in your terminal. It provides dedicated workspaces for tools like Claude Code and Codex.

How to set it up

You need Git and a terminal.

  1. Install the package using your preferred manager.
  2. Run the shell integration command to enable path management.
brew install worktrunk && wt config shell install
cargo install worktrunk && wt config shell install
winget install max-sixty.worktrunk
git-wt config shell install
sudo pacman -S worktrunk && wt config shell install

How to use it

You manage worktrees through commands that handle creation, listing, merging, and removal.

Example

Launch a new agent in a feature branch by running wt switch -x claude -c feature-name. Worktrunk creates the branch, sets up the worktree, and starts the agent.

For newcomers and experts

Newcomers can think of a worktree as a separate folder that shares the same history but keeps tasks distinct. You can use the list command to see how your current work is organized. Experts will find that this tool automates native Git worktree capabilities through a unified interface.

Good to know

  • Works on macOS, Linux, and Windows.
  • Integrates with local Git repositories.
  • Licensed under MIT or Apache 2.0.

It shares 𝘁𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲𝘁/ and 𝗻𝗼𝗱𝗲_𝗺𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗹𝗲𝘀/ between worktrees with 𝗰𝗼𝗽𝘆-𝗼𝗻-𝘄𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗲, so a new worktree does not rebuild and does not copy gigabytes. That needs APFS, btrfs or XFS.
