claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix [Bug] Claude reads from main repo path instead of git worktree when memory namespace matches main repo [1 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

Claude may need a configuration change or code update to correctly use the Primary working directory from the session context instead of the memory namespace path when launched from a git worktree.

Guidance

• Verify that the Primary working directory is correctly set to the worktree path in the session context when launching Claude from a git worktree.
• Check if there's a configuration option to override the memory namespace path with the Primary working directory.
• Investigate the code that constructs file paths in Claude to see if it can be updated to use the Primary working directory instead of the memory namespace path.
• Consider adding a temporary workaround to explicitly correct Claude's file path construction until a permanent fix is implemented.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue does not contain sufficient information about the codebase.

Notes

The issue seems to be related to how Claude handles git worktrees and memory namespaces. Without more information about the code or configuration, it's difficult to provide a more specific solution.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Until a permanent fix is implemented, users can explicitly correct Claude's file path construction to use the correct worktree path, as mentioned in the issue description. This will allow Claude to function correctly for the rest of the session.
