# Spin up isolated git worktrees for parallel Claude Code and Codex branches with Worktrunk

Create, switch, and clean per-branch worktrees so multiple coding agents can work the same repo in parallel without stomping each other.

## Prerequisites

Git repository, Worktrunk CLI, local shell access, one or more coding agents such as Claude Code or Codex

## Installation

Use the upstream install or setup path that matches your environment:
- brew install worktrunk && wt config shell install
- cargo install worktrunk && wt config shell install
- conda install -c conda-forge worktrunk && wt config shell install

Requirements and caveats from upstream:
- worktree requires typing the branch name three times: git worktree add -b feat

Basic usage or getting-started notes:
- **[Hooks](https://worktrunk.dev/hook/)** — run commands on create, pre-merge, post-merge, etc
- **Homebrew (macOS & Linux):**
- bash
