What Hacker News says

I've been working on a worktree manager for a couple months, excited to share it. Since agents have become good enough to run in parallel, I've found git worktrees to be, in the words of Juliet "my only love sprung from my only hate" — an awesome productivity multiplier, but with a terrible UX... Worktrunk is designed to fix that: 1) it's a wonderful layer on top of git worktrees and 2) it adds a lot of optional QoL improvements focused on parallel agents. Those Qol improvements include a command to show the status of all worktrees/branches (including CI status & links to PRs), a great Claude Code statusline, a command to have an LLM write a commit message, etc. Like my other projects (PRQL, xarray, insta, numbagg), it's Open Source, no commercial intent. It's written in rust, extensively tested; crafted with love (no slop!) Check it out,
