DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Claude is told to stay in a worktree even when it did not create one

Claude is warned to stay in your git worktree even when it did not create the worktree.

What

The system prompt's warning not to cd back to the repository root now fires whenever your working directory is a linked git worktree, not just for worktree sessions Claude set up itself. Applied in both system prompt builders.

Evidence

an isolated copy of the repository. Run all commands from this directory.

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
