spawnpoint 0.2.0

Spawn multi-repo worktree workspaces for feature development

Spawnpoint

Spawn multi-repo worktree workspaces for feature development.

Working on a feature that spans multiple repos? Spawnpoint creates a dedicated folder with git worktrees from each repo on the same branch, installs dependencies, and copies over config files — so you can start coding (or start a Claude session) immediately.

Install

pipx install spawnpoint

Or with pip:

pip install spawnpoint

Quick Start

spawnpoint create     # select repos, name a branch, spawn worktrees
spawnpoint cleanup    # select and remove worktree workspaces

On first run, Spawnpoint will ask you to configure your scan directories and workspace location.

How It Works

1. Select repos — Spawnpoint scans your code directories and presents a fuzzy-searchable list of git repos
2. Name a branch — Enter a branch name for your feature
3. Spawn — For each repo, Spawnpoint:
   • Creates a git worktree (or new branch if needed)
   • Initializes submodules
   • Copies .env files, CLAUDE.md, and other config files from the original repo
   • Installs dependencies (detects npm/pnpm/yarn/bun, pip/uv/poetry, bundler, go modules)

All worktrees land in a single folder (~/.spawnpoint/workspaces/<branch-name>/) so you can open the whole workspace in your editor or start an AI coding session.

Commands

Command	Description
spawnpoint create	Spawn worktree workspaces
spawnpoint cleanup	Remove worktree workspaces
spawnpoint init	Run interactive setup
spawnpoint config	View current config
spawnpoint config --edit	Edit config in $EDITOR
spawnpoint config --reset	Reset to defaults
spawnpoint update	Update to latest version
spawnpoint --version	Show version

Configuration

Config lives at ~/.spawnpoint/config.toml:

# Directories to scan for git repos
scan_dirs = ['~/code', '~/projects']

# Where workspaces are created
worktree_dir = '~/.spawnpoint/workspaces'

# How deep to scan for repos (1-4)
scan_depth = 2

# Files/dirs to copy into new worktrees
copy_patterns_globs = ['.env*']
copy_patterns_files = ['AGENT.md', 'CLAUDE.md', 'GEMINI.md']
copy_patterns_dirs = ['.vscode', 'docs']

# Auto-install dependencies after worktree creation
auto_install_deps = true

When creating a new branch, Spawnpoint automatically detects the repo's default branch to use as the base. No configuration needed.

Requirements

• Python 3.10+
• git
