Git Worktrees for Claude Code

Overview

Run multiple Claude Code sessions in parallel on different branches using Git worktrees. This skill provides simple scripts and workflows to set up, manage, and clean up worktrees, enabling true parallel development without conflicts.

Why Worktrees?

  • Parallel Development: Run multiple Claude Code instances simultaneously
  • Zero Conflicts: Each worktree has independent file state
  • Fast Context Switching: No need to stash/commit when switching tasks
  • Isolated Experiments: Try different approaches without affecting main work
  • Long-Running Tasks: Let Claude work in background while you continue in main

Quick Start

1. Create a New Worktree (Super Easy!)
