# Local Review

You are tasked with setting up a local review environment for a colleague's branch. This involves creating a worktree, setting up dependencies, and launching a new Claude Code session.

## Process

When invoked with a parameter like `gh_username:branchName`:

1. **Parse the input**:
   - Extract GitHub username and branch name from the format `username:branchname`
   - If no parameter provided, ask for it in the format: `gh_username:branchName`

2. **Extract ticket information**:
   - Look for ticket numbers in the branch name (e.g., `eng-1696`, `ENG-1696`)
   - Use this to create a short worktree directory name
   - If no ticket found, use a sanitized version of the branch name

3. **Set up the remote and worktree**:
   - Check if the remote already exists using `git remote -v`
   - If not, add it: `git remote add USERNAME [email protected]:USERNAME/humanlayer`
   - Fetch from the remote: `git fetch USERNAME`
   - Create worktree: `git worktree add -b BRANCHNAME ~/wt/humanlayer/SHORT_NAME USERNAME/BRANCHNAME`

4. **Configure the worktree**:
   - Copy Claude settings: `cp .claude/settings.local.json WORKTREE/.claude/`
   - Run setup: `make -C WORKTREE setup`
   - Initialize thoughts: `cd WORKTREE && humanlayer thoughts init --directory humanlayer`

## Error Handling

- If worktree already exists, inform the user they need to remove it first
- If remote fetch fails,
