Show HN: Workz–Git worktrees with zero-config dep sync and a built-in MCP server (github.com)
3 points by rohansx 116 days ago
I built workz to solve a daily frustration: git worktree add drops you into a directory with no .env, no node_modules, and 2GB of disk wasted per branch if you reinstall.

workz does three things:

Auto-syncs — symlinks heavy dirs (node_modules, target, .venv) and copies .env files into every new worktree Fuzzy switching — skim-powered TUI to jump between worktrees, with shell cd integration like zoxide MCP server — workz mcp exposes 6 tools so Claude Code/Cursor can create and manage worktrees autonomously without human intervention Written in Rust, single binary, zero config for Node/Rust/Python/Go/Java projects.

cargo install workz or brew install rohansx/tap/workz
