The problem

## An agent's worktree is a folder you have to find.

Each chat works on its own branch in its own checkout. To look at its files in your editor you dig up the path, switch branches or open a terminal in the right place first.

How Shuriken handles it

## How it works

From a chat's header, Open in takes the chat's worktree to VS Code, Cursor, Zed, a terminal or Finder.

## Everything Open in knows.

Shuriken shows the ones installed on your computer.
