The Claude desktop app creates session worktrees itself and never runs a plugin's WorktreeCreate/WorktreeRemove hooks (anthropics/claude-code#29716), so those worktrees bypass wt. Closes #4776

The Agent Integration page says the plugin's
WorktreeCreate/WorktreeRemovehooks route Claude Code worktrees throughwt, without saying that this doesn't apply to worktree sessions started from the Claude desktop app. The app creates those worktrees itself, under.claude/worktrees/, and doesn't call plugin worktree hooks. Upstream tracks this in anthropics/claude-code#29716, which is still open. This PR adds one sentence to the worktree isolation section saying so and linking that issue, and regenerates the two skill mirrors.test_docs_are_in_syncpasses.The page doesn't recommend the workaround from #4776, which is to copy the hooks into
~/.claude/settings.jsonand disable the plugin. Two things count against it. Disabling the plugin drops/wt-switch-createand/wt-diff, and the CLI runs both copies when both are enabled. The upstream thread also disagrees on whether settings-file hooks run in the desktop app: one report says they do, and a later one says they don't. The workaround stays documented on the issue for anyone who wants that trade.Closes #4776 — automated triage
