Warp is a modern terminal with AI built in. Ask questions in natural language, get commands. Built-in command palette, blocks (grouped output), and team collaboration.
AI Features
# Type # to ask AI:
# how to find files larger than 100MB
# → Suggests: find . -type f -size +100M
# how to kill process on port 3000
# → Suggests: lsof -ti:3000 | xargs kill -9
# git undo last commit but keep changes
# → Suggests: git reset --soft HEAD~1
Blocks (Grouped Output)
Each command and its output is a "block." You can:
- Copy just the output (not the command)
- Share a block as a link
- Search within a block
- Collapse/expand blocks
Workflows (Reusable Commands)
# Save commonly used command sequences
name: Deploy
steps:
- git pull origin main
- npm run build
- npm run test
- npm run deploy
