Problem Statement
If I create a new Claude session, enter a new worktree, and do some work, I lose the ability to resume the session when I restart VS Code.
Looks like the extension searches inside my workspace root (ex: /home/user/foo) and not inside the child worktrees (ex: /home/user/foo/.claude/worktrees/**) to find sessions.
Proposed Solution
Just add the workspace root's .claude/worktrees/** to the paths that the extension uses when looking for Claude sessions.
Alternative Solutions
The 2 terrible workarounds are:
- Open the worktree itself as a workspace and resume session.
- Dump conversation history from worktree into a .md file so that another Claude session can use it to resume from main worktree's workspace.
