Launch Log 1
Olivia Johnston
Q1 has been one of the busiest periods in Warp’s history. Read on for a recap of the key updates from the last few months.
Check out the release video where Jess and Ian share the newest features.
Save Agent Mode requests as reusable Prompts
Is there a long, repeatable request you keep making in Warp that you want to avoid typing over and over? Or a cool way you put Warp to work that you want to share with the world?
Prompts can be created with the same workflow you use to create new Workflows or Notebooks, and will show up in your Warp Drive. Just like other Drive objects, Prompts can be shared with your teammates and with the broader web.
We’ve been using Prompts for a lot of very useful (and sometimes simply entertaining) jobs.
Some examples:
- Make a PR for me
- Review my code for style and clarity
- Make a diagram of the task Agent Mode just completed
- Play a sound when my long-running command completes
You can see an extended cut of this list on a repo we created— using AI in Warp! Submit a PR to add your own, and tag us in any other ideas on X!
Agent Mode is getting smarter
Knowledge and suggested Rules
Warp can now save Rules, which will inform future responses. Rules can be anything from what tools you use, what libraries you have installed, and how your dev environment is set up. You can even use Rules to tell Agent Mode how to talk to you. Wish your responses were more succinct or more instructional? Make a Rule.
Create Rules by accepting the suggestions that show up after Agent Mode requests, or by manually creating them in the “Rules” pane.
Codebase as context
Metadata about your current github repo will be indexed and used in Agent Mode queries. Metadata may include file names, languages, and directory structure.
No code is ever stored on our servers.
The long (but still important) tail
New update UI: We’ve overhauled our auto-update process and made the “update Warp” UI less intrusive.
Custom dock icons (Mac only): Choose from a curated set of icons and customize your dock!
Performance improvements: New memory structures mean Warp is using 20% less memory on average, leveraging new data structures that are more space efficient.
Warp on Windows: We’re now available on all major platforms. We also selected winners for our launch giveaway. Stay tuned for updates!
What’s next
Q1 has been the most significant quarter in Warp’s history, possibly since our beta launch in 2022. And our plans for Q2 are even more ambitious.
