Git Worktree Isolation FAQs

Question 1

What happens to the worktree after the agent finishes its task?

Accepted Answer

If the agent made no changes, the worktree is cleaned up automatically. If changes were made, the worktree persists so you can review and merge the work manually.

Question 2

Can I run multiple Claude agents in parallel using this skill?

Accepted Answer

Yes, by using the --worktree and --tmux flags, you can launch multiple agents in their own isolated directories and terminal sessions simultaneously.

Question 3

How do I enable worktree isolation for a subagent?

Accepted Answer

Simply add 'isolation: worktree' to the subagent's YAML frontmatter; Claude Code will then automatically create and manage the isolated directory during execution.

Question 4

Does each worktree require its own dependency installation?

Accepted Answer

Yes, because each worktree is a separate directory, you will need to initialize the environment (e.g., npm install) for each, which can be automated using custom lifecycle hooks.

Question 5

Do I need to modify my project configuration for this to work?

Accepted Answer

It is recommended to add '.claude/worktrees/' to your .gitignore file to prevent worktree contents from appearing as untracked files in your main repository.
