I Built workz: The Zoxide for Git Worktrees That Finally Fixes .env + node_modules Hell in 2026

I've been using git worktrees a lot lately — especially for running multiple Claude/Cursor AI agents in parallel without them stepping on each other's toes. The idea is great: fast branch switching, isolated dirs, no stashing mess. But the reality sucks: Untracked files like .env* , .npmrc , secrets, docker overrides get left behind every time. Heavy folders ( node_modules , target , .venv , caches, dist…) get duplicated → gigabytes wasted and 5–15 min waits for reinstalls. No clean, zero-config tool handles symlinking/copying + fuzzy navigation. So I built workz (Zoxide-inspired for worktrees) to fix exactly that. What workz actually does Automatically symlinks 22+ heavy dependency dirs (smart detection via package.json / Cargo.toml / pyproject.toml / go.mod etc.) Copies env/config patterns ( .env* , .secrets , .tool-versions …) Fuzzy switcher with skim TUI → just type w to search and cd instantly --ai flag to launch your AI coding agent directly in the new worktree Optional .workz.to
