Description

Claude Code creates worktrees in the folder .claude/worktrees. When I run rtk grep, it also grips the git worktrees in this folder. This is problematic, since these folders are out of scope for any agentic session.

rtk grep should automatically skip this folder - at least, when used together with Claude Code.

I think git grep and rg are ignoring .gitignore

Contributor guide

Research direction
Add a filter to skip the .claude/worktrees directory in the grep command, similar to how .gitignore works.
