exit_worktree — remove, merge, or abandon a worktree

exit_worktree is the cleanup half of the worktree pair. Each action resolves the worktree differently:

Action	Effect
remove	git worktree remove <path>. Branch is kept; tree is deleted.
merge	Switch to the worktree’s parent branch, fast-forward merge the worktree branch, then remove.
abandon	remove + git branch -D <name>. Both tree and branch are gone.

Schema

Arg	Type	Required	Description
worktree_path	string	yes	Filesystem path of the worktree to operate on.
action	string	yes	remove, merge, or abandon.

Example invocation

{"worktree_path": "/Users/me/dev/chimera-spike-redis-backend", "action": "merge"}

from chimera.tools.worktree_tool import ExitWorktreeTool

tool = ExitWorktreeTool()
result = tool.execute(
    {"worktree_path": "/Users/me/dev/chimera-spike-redis-backend",
     "action": "abandon"},
    env=local_env,
)

Output sample

Abandoned worktree '/Users/me/dev/chimera-spike-redis-backend' (deleted tree, deleted branch 'spike-redis-backend').

Notes

• merge refuses to run if the worktree has uncommitted changes; commit (or remove and accept the loss) first.
• abandon is destructive. Behind the Permissions layer it should require explicit approval.
