QuickTree

You can use the QuickTree feature to create a fresh worktree and open an AI session in the worktree in one step. You can keep working while the AI agent edits, builds, and runs code in isolation.

Use the QuickTree feature

To create a new worktree and start an AI session with the QuickTree feature, complete the following steps.

  1. Click Assist > QuickTree.
  2. In the QuickTree dialog, enter a prompt to start the AI session.
  3. In the expanded details menu, enter the worktree name in the Worktree Name field.
  4. In the AI System field, select Zide Assist or a CLI agent to start the AI session.
  5. In the Base Branch field, select which branch to base the worktree on.
  6. Click Create.

QuickTree needs an AI system to launch: Zide Assist (with an active subscription) or a configured CLI agent. If neither is available, the dialog explains this and the Create button is disabled.
