    Introducing Warp Agent CLI

    “Hey everyone, I'm excited to introduce the Warp Agent CLI. This is a CLI coding agent with Warp's auto routers and SOTA model selection, full shell access, and orchestration built in. It's compatible with any terminal, so you can use it in iTerm, VS Code, Cursor, or whatever you use. It's also compatible with any model, so you can use it with Claude, GPT, Grok, Gemini, Kimi, GLM, Qwen, and more. And it's also compatible with any shell, so you can use it with Bash, Zsh, Fish, or whatever you use. We've built it to be a comprehensive agent experience, so you can use it to do anything from simple tasks to complex workflows. Let's dive in.”

    Medium shot of the presenter, then close-up, then wide shot with laptop, then close-up again. Camera is static, focusing on the presenter.
    Motion
    Subtle camera zooms and cuts between presenter and screen elements. Text overlays animate in with a quick fade and slide.

    Warp Agent CLI in Action

    warp agent cli Claude Code 1. The '!' prefix is prepended back to the buffer text. 2. The full text (e.g. '!git status') is sent to the CLI agent via the existing 'SubmitCLIAgen tInput' path. 3. The existing submit path already splits the '!' prefix byte with a small delay for agents l ike Claude Code ('CLI_AGENT_MODE_SWITCH_PREFIXES'). 4. The input reverts to AI locked mode. ### Interaction with other features - **Autodetection**: Does not run while in CLI agent shell mode. The '!' prefix is the explici t toggle mechanism: autodetection would fight with the locked state. - **Slash commands**: The slash command menu ('/') is not affected. It operates independently of shell mode. - **Context menu**: Works normally in both AI and shell mode. ### Other Agents Starting off with Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode for now. Can check behavior/expand to other CLI agents in a follow-up. ### Success criteria > Ask the agent anything • ? for shortcuts • ! for shell mode • / for commands ctrl-c to return to command warpdotdev/warp (14 issues) Issues #14497 Dummy test issue created by O needs-info triaged repro:unknown #14484 Input editor remains visible triaged repro:high #14468 File-path links with line num #14464 [Windows] Zero-size resize lo triaged repro:medium Preview #14497 Dummy test issue created by Oz Author: johnturcoo Created: 2026-07-29 Labels: needs-info, triaged, repro:unknown This is a dummy issue created by the Oz agent to demonstrate Github issue creation via the gh CLI.
