Problem

Worktree add is currently broken.

The add flow can hit:
E5560: nvim_echo must not be called in a fast event context

That comes from logging in the callback path.

Expected

First fix the crash so worktree add works again.

After that, revisit the UX. The current vim.ui.input prompt works, but the fzf-lua-style model where you type a branch name in the picker and hit <c-a> feels better for worktree creation.

The fast-event logging crash in worktree add is fixed on main, so closing this report. Any remaining worktree UX follow-up can be tracked separately.
