self-promotion, but check out worktrunk.dev
by far the most popular worktree manager

Thanks!
I think at the moment that's indeed the case...
But also maybe that will change — LLMs can learn new languages faster than people, and can _write_ new languages much faster than people. So wide confidence bounds for the future!

Maintainer here!
Indeed we're doing fewer new features (and haven't posted to the posts page in a long time, as you noticed).
But it's still maintained, folks are still using it, if anyone finds bugs in simple-to-moderate queries then we'll fix them.
LLMs probably took a bit of the wind out of our sails for making this "the new standard". But I still think it's a really nice language and interface; if the world changed again such that it became more widely useful, I'd jump to spending lots of time on it again.

He explicitly disavowed any crypto / coin endorsement
(I don't _love_ his vibes on Twitter, but he seems like a very reasonable guy generally, and the project seems awesome)

What did you think "building social skills" meant? vibe coded apps?
Gotta start somewhere!

I'm all for building apps to solve problems, but I would really encourage folks to ask people politely to do what you want them to do, rather than having an app do it for you.
You can just ask people for things! And you will become a better person for it.

Very excited to see this!

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, please let me know any feedback, either here or in GH. Thanks in advance, Max

Have your AI talk to their AI
Then, if the AIs are positive, the human principals can talk
Seems quite reasonable!
