Bash, Read, Task	<branch-name>	Create a git worktree and open it in a new Terminal with Claude Code

Context

• Current repository: !git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || echo "Not in a git repository"
• Existing worktrees: !git worktree list 2>/dev/null || echo "Not in a git repository"

Your task

Create a git worktree with the name provided in the arguments: $ARGUMENTS

Use the Task tool to execute all the git worktree creation and Terminal operations in a subtask to avoid cluttering the main context.

The subtask should:

1. Verify we're in a git repository
2. Create a worktree in a sibling directory (../branch-name)
3. Use osascript to open a new Terminal tab with this exact AppleScript:

   tell application "Terminal"
       activate
       tell application "System Events" to tell process "Terminal" to keystroke "t" using command down
       delay 0.5
       do script "cd /path/to/worktree && cc" in selected tab of the front window
   end tell
   

4. The AppleScript MUST use keystroke "t" using command down to create a tab (NOT a new window)
5. Use do script with in selected tab of the front window to run commands in the new tab

Requirements:

• The worktree name should be: $ARGUMENTS
• Create the worktree as a sibling to the current repository root
• IMPORTANT: Use the exact AppleScript pattern shown above to create a TAB, not a window
• The AppleScript must use keystroke "t" using command down to open a new tab
• Use do script ... in selected tab of the front window to run commands in the new tab
• Start Claude Code automatically in the new Terminal tab
• Execute all operations in a subtask using the Task tool to keep the main context clean
