Git integration internals

One git-service backs both the user-facing Changes drawer and AIgency's worktree/branch automation, always shelling out to a real git executable.

AgentDock has no bundled or vendored git implementation — every git-related feature shells out to the git executable configured in Settings (git on PATH by default; see Advanced & diagnostics), through src/main/services/git-service.ts.

What it's used for

  • Diff and status — the Changes drawer's changed-file list and per-file diffs, plus its file-revert action.
  • Worktree and branch automation (AgentDock Pro) — aigency-worktree-service.ts calls into the same git service to create and clean up isolated worktrees under .aigency-worktrees/<runId>/<taskId>, on branches named aigency/<runId8>/<taskId8>-<slug> — see AIgency worktree service.

Scope discipline

Destructive git operations (a file revert, worktree cleanup) stay explicit and scoped to what the user or the orchestrator actually asked for — there's no blanket "reset everything" operation exposed anywhere in the git service's surface. See Safety behaviour.
