Worktrees and Isolation

AYNIG runs each execution inside a dedicated Git worktree.

For every actionable commit, AYNIG:

• creates a worktree checked out on the target branch,
• runs the command inside that worktree,
• removes it once execution finishes.

Commands run with the working directory set to the worktree. Worktrees are created under .worktrees/ and reused across runs when possible.

The trusted commands ref is also materialized there, as a detached checkout named commands-<hash>. It is pinned to a commit and shared by all branches in a run; stale ones can be removed with git worktree remove when no runner is active.

This guarantees:

• clean, reproducible snapshots
• the main working directory is not modified
• concurrent executions do not interfere

The default worktree location is:

.worktrees/

It is added to .gitignore by aynig init.
