GroveGrove: Know what’s finished in ~/Code.
Grove reads every repository, worktree and stray folder, including the ones your agents left in .claude/worktrees, and shows what’s active, what’s gone stale and what’s safe to clear. Then it clears it, with undo.

Grove reads git, not just your disk.
A disk tool sees folders. Grove sees branches, remotes and worktrees, so it can tell a worktree whose pull request merged last week from one holding an afternoon of unpushed work.
| Clears space | Grove says | Because it checked | In the demo folder |
|---|---|---|---|
| Offers to clear | Remove finished worktrees | Nothing uncommitted, and the branch was merged, its remote branch was deleted, or it has sat idle with everything pushed. | marigold-image-pipeline, fix-flaky-upload-test, dark-mode-tokens, review-pr-2122.08 GB |
| Offers to clear | Clear out dormant repositories | Untouched for over 90 days, every commit already on a remote, no stashes, nothing uncommitted in it or its worktrees. | pixel-garden, advent-of-code-2024, retro-weather, old-portfolio2.48 GB |
| Offers to clear | Prune stale branches | Merged, or the remote branch is gone. Never the default branch, the current one, or one checked out in any worktree. | chore/bump-deps, docs/api-examples, fix/typo-in-readme3 branches |
| Offers to clear | Forget missing worktrees | Git still tracks a worktree whose folder was deleted, which blocks its branch from being checked out anywhere else. | old-spike1 record |
| Points it out | Save work in progress | Uncommitted changes, or commits that aren’t on any remote yet. Grove points at these; it never offers to clear them. | lantern-cli, onboarding-copy, refactor-sync-engine, workshop-zine, hackathon-scrapbot5 items |
| Points it out | Sort out loose folders | Not a git repository, so nothing backs it up. Grove shows how much space they take and leaves the call to you. | scratch, screenshots-2025, figma-exports, downloads-to-sort1.48 GB |
Agents make worktrees. Grove finds every one.
Claude Code tucks them into .claude/worktrees, Codex keeps them under ~/.codex, and plenty end up outside ~/Code entirely. Grove follows git to each of them, and a repository stays active as long as its busiest worktree is.
| State | Where | Branch | Size | Grove’s read |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ~/Code/tidepool | main | 1.48 GB | Keep Everything on main is pushed. 4 commits on its agent branches aren't on any remote yet. | |
| .claude/worktrees/ | claude/refactor-sync-engine | 537 MB | Unsaved work 2 uncommitted changes, 2 commits not on any remote. | |
| .claude/worktrees/ | claude/onboarding-copy | 268 MB | Unsaved work 1 commit not on any remote yet. | |
| .claude/worktrees/ | claude/fix-flaky-upload-test | 537 MB | Remove Branch merged into main, nothing uncommitted. | |
| .claude/worktrees/ | claude/dark-mode-tokens | 470 MB | Remove Remote branch deleted after its pull request closed, nothing uncommitted. | |
| .claude/worktrees/ | claude/review-pr-212 | 403 MB | Remove Idle 21 days with everything pushed. | |
| .claude/worktrees/ | claude/old-spike | — | Forget Folder deleted, but git still tracks the worktree. Grove can forget it. | |
| ~/Code/marigold-web | main | 1.01 GB | Keep Everything is pushed. | |
| ~/.codex/worktrees/marigold-image-pipeline | codex/image-pipeline | 671 MB | Remove Branch merged into main, nothing uncommitted. Lives outside ~/Code. |
Nothing goes without a way back.
Removing moves things to the real Trash, so Finder’s Put Back works, and ⌘Z undoes it.
- Scanning is read-only
- Git runs with GIT_OPTIONAL_LOCKS=0, so Grove never takes the index lock out from under your editor or terminal.
- Worktrees come back exactly
- Removing a worktree also sets aside git’s record of it, so undo puts it back as it was. Those records are cleared after a week.
- Repositories list what they take
- Removing a repository takes its linked worktrees with it, and the confirmation names every one.
- Unsaved work is called out first
- Uncommitted changes, unpushed commits, stashes or no remote at all: you see it before you confirm.
- Branches in use are off limits
- Branch cleanup never touches the default branch, the current branch, or one checked out in any worktree. Deleted branches come back with ⌘Z.
- Pins stay put
- Pin a repository to keep it in the sidebar and out of every cleanup suggestion.
- The network waits for you
- Fetch All is the only network action, and it only runs when you click it.

Your grove is tidy.
That’s what Grove says once there’s nothing left to clear. The 17 items above are what the demo folder keeps; see what yours says.
