Conversation
An agent that runs git worktree add and continues working there leaves the thread bound to the project checkout. The branch toolbar keeps saying "Local checkout", Open goes to the original folder, and nothing agent-reachable can correct the binding. Add a t3_worktree_handoff MCP tool, granted to every provider session. It accepts an absolute path, checks that it is a linked worktree of the thread's project repository, reads its branch, and updates the thread metadata. The provider session restarts inside the worktree on the next turn through the existing cwd-change path. The runtime instructions tell agents to call it right after creating a worktree for the thread. Fixes pingdotgg#1714

ApprovabilityVerdict: Not approved Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable — This PR introduces a new default-enabled agent workflow that changes thread metadata, UI/open-folder behavior, and subsequent provider-session location across several shared runtime components. An unresolved high-severity Windows path-comparison issue also remains in the new handoff validation. Not approved because:

Compare worktree roots and common dirs through realPath so symlinked and 8.3 short paths match their long form. Keep the toolkit registration layer module-private, as knip requires.

We have this exact workflow in our shared agent tooling: an agent creates a task-owned git worktree mid-thread, then needs T3 metadata, the branch indicator, Open, and subsequent turns to follow it. Today we can start a new thread through the branch selector, but the original thread remains bound to the old checkout. An explicit, provider-independent handoff fits this better than relying on Claude-specific EnterWorktree detection. We would call t3_worktree_handoff immediately after git worktree add and expect the next turn to resume in that path. Happy to test this on Linux/nightly once it is available. |

Thanks for the PR. We're not taking changes to the orchestration and provider layers right now: that part of the server is being rewritten for V2, and merging into the current code would either conflict with or be thrown away by that work. Closing for now. If this is still an issue once V2 lands, please reopen (or open a fresh PR against the new code) and we'll take a proper look. |

Problem
When an agent runs
git worktree addmid-thread and keeps working there, the thread stays bound to the project checkout. The branch toolbar keeps showing "Local checkout", Open goes to the original folder, and the agent has no way to tell T3 Code where it moved. The earlier fix for this, #3754, merged into the orchestrator v2 branch and never reached main.Fix

Nothing changes for the running turn. The runtime instructions now tell agents to call the tool right after creating a worktree for the thread, and not for worktrees made for other purposes.
