<purpose>
Create or sync a session-level git worktree for parallel development.
Supports `--sync` mode to pull latest main changes into an active worktree.
</purpose>

- [worktree-scope.json](~/.maestro/templates/worktree-scope.json) — read when writing scope marker

$ARGUMENTS -- session ID (or slug) and optional flags.

Terminology: this command uses 'session' throughout. The underlying workflow file (fork.md) may use 'milestone' as a legacy alias for 'session'. Treat them as equivalent: `--session` maps to workflow's `-m`, `state.json.sessions[]` maps to `state.json.milestones[]`.

`--base <ref>`: git ref (branch, tag, or commit hash) to fork from. Default: HEAD.

Modes (`Fork` / `Sync`), flags (`--session`, `--base`, `--sync`), session resolution, worktree layout, and artifact scoping are defined in workflow `fork.md`.
</context>

<execution>
Follow '~/.maestro/workflows/fork.md' completely.

Fork and sync algorithm steps are defined in workflow `fork.md`.

### Gates (MANDATORY, BLOCKING)

**Fork mode:**

**GATE 1: Validation → Worktree Creation**
- REQUIRED: Session resolved from `state.json.sessions[]` by session_id or intent slug.
- REQUIRED: No existing active worktree for this session (E008).
- REQUIRED: Not running inside a worktree (E003).
- BLOCKED if: session not found (E006), already forked (E008), or running inside worktree (E003).

**GATE 2: Worktree Creation → Artifact Copy**
- REQUIRED: Git worktree created with branch (`session/{slug}`).
- REQUIRED: Shared `.workflow/` files copied (project.md, config.json, specs/).
- BLOCKED if missing: worktree creation failed or shared files not copied — do not proceed to artifact scoping.

**GATE 3: Artifact Copy → Completion**
- REQUIRED: request_user_input confirmation before registry writes — show session scope, worktree path, and state entries to be written. User must confirm or abort.
- REQUIRED: `worktree-scope.json` written with session scope (after confirmation).
- REQUIRED: Scoped `state.json` written (only this session's data) (after confirmation).
- REQUIRED: `worktrees.json` registry updated in main worktree (after confirmation).
- BLOCKED if missing: scope marker, scoped state, or registry update absent — worktree is unusable without these.

**Sync mode:**

**GATE: Sync → Completion**
- REQUIRED: Git merge main into worktree branch completed.
- REQUIRED: Shared artifacts re-copied.
- BLOCKED if: merge has unresolved conflicts or shared artifacts failed to copy.

</execution>

### Next-step routing

| Condition | Suggestion |
|-----------|-----------|
| Fork complete | `cd {wt.path}`, then route step `analyze` through `/maestro-next` or the canonical receipt-chained `session open` -> `session chain insert --command analyze --arg "<goal>"` -> `run next` flow |
| Fork + automated | `maestro delegate "run full lifecycle for session" --cd {wt.path} --mode write` |
| Sync complete | Resume work in worktree |
| Sync conflicts found | Resolve manually, then retry |
</completion>

<error_codes>
| Code | Severity | Condition | Recovery |
|------|----------|-----------|----------|
| E001 | error | Project not initialized | Run maestro-init first |
| E002 | error | No roadmap found | Route step `roadmap` through `/maestro-next` or the canonical receipt-chained self-start flow |
| E003 | error | Running inside a worktree | Run from main worktree |
| E004 | error | No session ID provided | Provide `--session <session_id>` |
| E005 | error | No sessions defined in state.json | Route step `roadmap` through `/maestro-next` or the canonical receipt-chained self-start flow |
| E006 | error | Session not found in state.json.sessions[] | Check available sessions |
| E007 | error | No active worktree for session (--sync) | Check worktrees.json |
| E008 | error | Session already has active worktree | Merge or cleanup first |
</error_codes>
