Claude Code v2.1.246

Worktree cleanup only removes directories Claude Code created

Worktrees

Worktree cleanup now refuses to delete any checkout Claude Code did not create itself.

What

The background sweep that removes finished job worktrees now refuses to delete one unless it finds Claude Code's own creation marker, so a checkout you made yourself is never reaped.

Details
  • The marker check runs before the existing live-lock and worktree-registry checks.
  • Unconditional on the reap path.
Evidence

no Claude Code creation marker (

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