# Multi-Agent Worktree Policy

## Rule: Each Agent Session Gets Its Own Worktree

To prevent conflicts when multiple agents work on the same repository:

### Before Starting Work

```bash
# Create isolated worktree in /tmp
WORKTREE_ID=$(date +%s)-$$
WORKTREE_PATH="/tmp/infra-worktree-$WORKTREE_ID"

git worktree add -b "agent/$WORKTREE_ID" "$WORKTREE_PATH"
cd "$WORKTREE_PATH"

# Do your work...
git add .
git commit -m "..."

# Push when done
git push origin "agent/$WORKTREE_ID"

# Cleanup
cd /opt/data/infra
git worktree remove "$WORKTREE_PATH"
```

### Benefits

- No branch conflicts between agents
- Each agent has isolated working directory
- Automatic cleanup after session
- Easy to track which agent did what

### For Hermes Agent

Add to agent system prompt or skill:
```
Before modifying any git repository:
1. Check if worktree already exists for this session
2. If not, create one: git worktree add -b "agent/$SESSION_ID" /tmp/repo-worktree-$SESSION_ID
3. Do all work in the worktree
4. Push branch when complete
5. Remove worktree on cleanup
```

### Manual Cleanup (if needed)

```bash
# List all worktrees
git worktree list

# Remove stale ones
git worktree prune
git worktree remove /tmp/infra-worktree-XXX
```
