Configure Agent Manager
Adjust how Agent Manager names branches, prepares worktrees, and runs project scripts.
Open the settings
In Agent Manager, open Project settings or Worktree settings, then select the Agent Manager tab. The tab appears only when Settings is opened from Agent Manager.
Branches and worktrees
| Setting | Effect |
|---|---|
| Automatic branch naming | Renames new branches when the conversation describes a clear task. Names you enter and published branches are never renamed. On by default. |
| Branch prefix | Adds a prefix, such as feature/, to automatically named branches. |
| Pre-warm worktrees | Keeps a ready worktree in the background so new sessions start faster. Uses extra disk space equal to one checkout per open project. On by default. |
Project settings
Choose the Project to configure, then set:
- Default Base Branch: the branch new worktrees start from. Auto-detect uses the repository's default branch.
- Worktree Setup Script: select Create script or Edit script to open
.aicockpit/setup-script. See Use terminals and scripts.
