I run a lot of agentic coding sessions in parallel, each in its own git worktree. Every worktree points at the same local Postgres though, so the moment one branch runs a migration it changes the schema out from under the others. I'd end up with agents tripping over each other, or me babysitting which branch "owned" the DB at any given moment.I made this to fix it. I hope you might find it helpful too.

Could you build this?
Yes Wtdb is a CLI utility that automates spawning ephemeral or branched Postgres schemas/databases per Git worktree, which is straightforward shell/Node/Go scripting interacting with Git and PostgreSQL.
