Problem Statement

When I switch branches while in a chat with Claude the conversation and actual code can be mismatched. A warning from Claude that this might be the case, during the conversation, might help to prevent confusion and duplicate work.

Proposed Solution

A few things that would help:

1. Branch awareness at conversation start — Claude Code already captures the branch in gitStatus at the start, but it's a snapshot. Detecting a branch switch mid-conversation and warning ("You switched from branch-A to

branch-B — the context of our conversation may no longer match the code") would be very valuable.

1. Periodic git state checks — Before making edits, verifying the branch hasn't changed since the conversation started.

1. Branch-scoped conversations — Tying a conversation to a branch so you get prompted when there's a mismatch.
