Warp goes open-source for easier agentic development and introduces broader model support

Warp has made its client open source, releasing the code on GitHub under the AGPL-3.0 license. This move enables the wider developer community to participate directly in building, shaping, and improving the platform. Developers can use an agent-first workflow coordinated by Oz, Warp's cloud agent orchestration platform, to manage contributions. In this approach, software agents perform coding, planning, and testing tasks, while community members provide ideas, direction, and verification.

Accompanying the open-source launch, Warp now includes support for a much wider range of open source AI models, such as Kimi, MiniMax, and Qwen. Additionally, a new “auto” version will automatically select the most suitable model for each task. While the agent workflows are powered by OpenAI models by default, users may choose other coding agents as part of their workflow for contributing.

Building on these agentic improvements, users can now more easily tailor their Warp experience, ranging from a minimal terminal to a complete agentic development environment featuring integrated agents, a difference view, and a file tree. In addition, a new settings file provides users and agents with programmatic control over preferences and makes configuration easy to share across devices.
