## What it is
workmux is an opinionated Rust CLI that manages git worktrees and tmux windows (or kitty/WezTerm/Zellij tabs) as isolated development environments. It automates worktree setup and cleanup so developers can run multiple tasks and AI coding agents in parallel without branch switching or conflicts.

## Use cases
- run multiple AI coding agents in parallel without conflicts
- create git worktrees with matching tmux windows in one command
- automate worktree setup like copying .env and symlinking node_modules
- merge a branch and clean up worktree, window, and branches in one command
- monitor all agents across worktrees from a dashboard or sidebar
- delegate tasks to worktree agents with a /worktree skill
- let an agent autonomously rebase and resolve merge conflicts

## When to choose
- you live in tmux or a similar terminal multiplexer and want a terminal-first parallel workflow
- you run several AI agents or features concurrently and want isolated environments per task
- you want automated worktree lifecycle management from creation to merge and cleanup

## When to avoid
- you prefer GUI-based agent orchestration tools over terminal workflows
- you don't use git worktrees or a terminal multiplexer and don't want to adopt them
- you need a highly configurable, non-opinionated tool
