i've been deep in jj for a while and been experimenting with jj workspaces for parallel workflows. it's more intuitive than git worktrees but it still has a couple of gotchas that have been a hindrance to my ideal workflow.
so I built jj-navi - a tiny rust based cli that makes jj workspace orchestration a lot less pain in the ass.
key bits: - `navi switch <name>` -> creates/switchs workspaces and cds into them automatically (via shell integration) - `navi list` -> shows insertions/deletions across workspaces and also runs jj snapshot (so you don't see stale work)
check it out here at: https://github.com/eersnington/jj-navi (note: url at the top is a git.new one)
also, this is heavily inspired by worktrunk (still my daily driver replacement for git worktrees) and jj-ryu by dillon mulroy from the orange cloud forking company.
would love y'alls feedback, especially from heavy jj + agent users. feel free to open up issues on gh or hit me up on X.
