# Parallel Worktrees Zero dead time. While one session runs tests, work on something else. ## Trigger Use when waiting on tests, long builds, exploring approaches, or needing to review and develop simultaneously. ## Quick Start **Claude Code:** ```bash claude --worktree # or claude -w (auto-creates isolated worktree) ``` **Cursor / Any editor:** ```bash git worktree add ../project-feat feature-branch # Open the new worktree folder in a second editor window ``` Both approaches create an isolated working copy where changes don't interfere with your main session. ## Claude Code Extras These features are Claude Code-specific (skip if using Cursor): - `claude -w` auto-creates and cleans up worktrees - Subagents support `isolation: worktree` in agent frontmatter - `Ctrl+F` kills all background agents (two-press confirmation) - `Ctrl+B` sends a task to background ## Workflow 1. Show current worktrees: `git worktree list` 2. Create a worktree for the parallel task. 3. Open a new editor/terminal session in the worktree. 4. When done, clean up the worktree. ## Commands ```bash git worktree list git worktree add ../project-feat feature-branch git worktree add ../project-fix bugfix-branch git worktree add ../project-exp -b experiment git worktree remove ../project-feat git worktree prune ``` ## Usage Pattern ``` Terminal 1: ~/project → Main work Terminal 2: ~/project-feat → Feature development Terminal 3: ~/project-fix → Bug fixes ``` Each worktree...
