majordomus worktree create

Create the canonical worktree of a branch, creating the branch from --base (default: the trunk) when it does not exist. The path is derived; none may be given

Usage

majordomus worktree create [OPTIONS] [BRANCH]

Arguments

argument	value	default	description
<BRANCH>	<BRANCH>	—	The branch, full name (`feature/improve-cli`)
--base	<REF>	—	Start a new branch from this ref. Never fetched: it must resolve locally
--issue	<ID>	—	Name the branch after this issue of .ai/repo/project/issues: `feature/<id>-<slug>`, the form the topology reads the issue back from
--repo	<PATH>	—	Start the search for the repository root here (default: the current directory) (accepted by every subcommand)
--discovery	vcs \| filesystem	vcs	How declarative files are enumerated (accepted by every subcommand) `vcs` — Tracked files, through the version-control index (the layer's contract) `filesystem` — A walk of the work tree with the same glob semantics; untracked files included
--strict	flag	—	Refuse to proceed when any file of the layer carries an error diagnostic (accepted by every subcommand)
--share	<DIR>	—	The tool distribution's share directory (kinds.yaml, schemas/); default: $MAJORDOMUS_SHARE, then the repository's own share/, then the one beside the executable (accepted by every subcommand)
--format	text \| json	text	Output shape (accepted by every subcommand) `text` — Lines for a person `json` — One JSON document, deterministic

Examples

Start work on a branch without deciding where it goes

Creates the branch `feature/improve-cli` from the trunk and checks it out in a new worktree at `<repository>-wt/feature/improve-cli`. No path is given and none may be: the destination follows from the repository's identity and the branch name, so the same command in the same repository always produces the same path — from the primary checkout, and from inside another worktree.
```
$ majordomus worktree create feature/improve-cli
```
Verified by the example tests: exits 0; prints -wt/feature/improve-cli, feature/improve-cli (new.

Where this comes from

Declared once in apps/majordomus-cli/src/cli.rs: clap for the structure, typed Rust metadata beside it for the examples. This page, majordomus worktree create --help, docs/generated/cli.md and docs/generated/cli.json are projections of that one declaration.

The whole command line on one page: the registry's command-line page. The task lifecycle (init, start, finish, doctor, ...) belongs to the shell tool, a different program: Commands and its specification.
