A developer describes their journey to enable AI agents to work across multiple code repositories simultaneously. Initial attempts using copy-pasting code between agent sessions or starting agents at a project root proved inefficient due to context loss or overwhelming the agent with too many irrelevant repositories. The developer found success by using Git worktrees, which allow multiple copies of repositories to exist within a shared Git object database, enabling an agent to access and modify code across different repos in a consistent and efficient manner.
