Description
My workplace uses a very large monorepo, and each new chat session causes the app to create a new worktree. This takes a very long time and uses a lot of diskspace because the repo is so large.
I need a way to reuse worktrees or a way to specify a worktree for the agent to use. I would also appreciate a way to clean up stale worktrees.
