Are you still babysitting a single AI agent? The real power of agentic coding isn't just speed—it's the ability to scale your output by driving multiple tasks simultaneously. While Roo Code handles the heavy lifting of writing and debugging, your role shifts to reviewing and steering the process across multiple branches. This tip explains why Git Worktrees are the secret to a high-output workflow. Because Worktrees are directly integrated into Roo Code, your agents can work on features individually in separate windows. This means no stashing, no constant branch switching, and zero conflicts between your active tasks. It’s a much more efficient way to let AI handle parallel development without ever losing your place. Key Benefits: Parallel Context: Run a backend refactor and a frontend build in side-by-side windows. Zero Conflict: Each Roo instance works in its own isolated directory. No Stashing: Jump between tasks instantly without hitting the terminal.
