Release Notes

Improved

  • Experimental --reap flag for wt remove: wt remove --reap terminates processes still running in the worktree (a post-start dev server, a file watcher, a language server) before removing it, freeing the ports and file handles they hold. Processes are discovered by working directory and terminated with SIGTERM, then SIGKILL for survivors; the list prints before any signal is sent. A process holding a controlling terminal (an interactive shell, a terminal editor with unsaved buffers) is never touched. Unix only. Docs (#3396)

  • wt switch -x without a branch opens the picker: --execute no longer requires a branch argument — wt switch -x claude opens the interactive picker and runs the command against the selected worktree. It composes with every picker mode (--branches, --remotes, --prs), and the picker path shares the same pipeline as the argument path, so hooks, approval, and template expansion behave identically. (#3394, closes #3370, thanks @gbcreation for the request)

  • wt config state logs profile groups subprocess time by worktree: The report gained a BY CONTEXT table (and a by_context array in --format=json) — subprocess time per context, typically the worktree name — so a slow parallel phase can be attributed to the worktree causing it without exporting the trace to an external tool. (#3403)

  • -vv diagnostics surface pager and terminal environment: The diagnostic report (.git/wt/logs/diagnostic.md, written on every -vv run) gained an "Environment variables" section listing a curated, non-secret allowlist of the pager / terminal / locale knobs (PAGER, GIT_PAGER, TERM, COLUMNS, NO_COLOR, LANG, …) plus git's resolved core.pager. These are the inputs that most often explain a rendering bug — like a pager interaction suspending wt config show (#3322) — and they were previously invisible in the report. The list is a strict allowlist, never a blanket env dump, so no credential-bearing variable can leak into an uploaded report.

  • wt config update pins [list] json-schema while unset: The schema hint from 0.66.0 now comes with the standard one-command fix — wt config update pins json-schema = 1 (the behavior-preserving choice) when the key is unset, and the hint offers the command only when running it would actually write the pin. (#3411)

Fixed

  • wt switch no longer crashes on ragged tables in PR comments: A PR/MR comment table with more cells in a data row than in its header could panic termimad's column fitter at narrow widths, and because the comments preview renders on a background worker, the panic aborted the whole picker. The table render is now contained; the preview falls back to the table's plain text. (#3408, closes #3407, thanks @ortonomy for reporting)

  • wt config show no longer suspends on the zsh completion probe: The interactive zsh probe that detects a missing compinit claims the terminal foreground when job control is on; a slow or prompting zsh startup could hit the probe's kill-on-timeout before the foreground was restored, leaving wt in a background process group and its pager suspended with suspended (tty output). Both interactive probes now run with job control disabled (zsh +m), so a timed-out probe can't strand the terminal. (#3327, closes #3322, thanks @karmeleon for reporting)

  • wt step for-each and the --execute fallback no longer inherit wt's GIT_* discovery vars: The command that for-each runs in each worktree — and the --execute payload, when wt executes it directly because shell integration isn't active — now discovers its repository from the worktree wt placed it in, rather than an inherited GIT_DIR/GIT_WORK_TREE. Previously such a command's git calls resolved against the one inherited repo (e.g. the invoking worktree, when wt runs as a !wt git alias from a linked worktree) while the per-worktree headers claimed otherwise. This extends the hook-spawn scrub from #3374 to the remaining spawn sites that relocate a user command into a wt-chosen worktree; aliases and commit.generation commands run in the user's own context and keep the inherited environment. (#3400, #3373)

  • wt list holds steady when the shell prompt returns: The progressive table reserves two blank rows beneath its footer, so the multi-line prompt printed at exit renders into pre-scrolled rows instead of scrolling the settled table up. (#3409)

  • JSON schema 2: no self-relation on a remote-only default-branch row: wt list --format=json with schema 2 gave a remote-only row of the default branch (origin/main) a self-referential relation; the default-branch check now compares the remote-stripped branch name. (#3383)

Documentation

  • Code Signing Policy page: A new page documents Worktrunk's code-signing policy for the Windows binaries under the SignPath Foundation open-source program: certificate provenance, the signing pipeline, and per-release approval. Signing addresses Microsoft Defender's false positives on unsigned native binaries. Docs (#3366, thanks @bemnlam for reporting #3355)

Internal

  • Claude plugin hooks are Claude-scoped: The plugin's hooks file is renamed hooks.jsonclaude-hooks.json so Codex's convention discovery can't pick up Claude's hooks, hardening the Codex scoping shipped in 0.66.0. (#3382, thanks @ofek for the suggestion)

  • skim 5.0: The picker's fuzzy-finder library moves from 4.10 to 5.0, dropping roughly 1,000 lines of transitive dependencies from the lockfile. (#3378)

  • Prune benchmarks: A rust-repo-scale prune fixture, Criterion benches, and trace spans over the removal path. (#3401)

  • Nix flake test sandbox provides lsof, and flake changes now trigger the nix-flake CI job. (#3410)
