About
Warp is an agentic development environment, born out of the terminal. Use Warp’s built‑in coding agent, or bring your own CLI agent (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, and others).
Installation
You can download Warp and read our docs for platform‑specific instructions.
Licensing
Warp’s UI framework (the warpui_core and warpui crates) are licensed under the MIT license.
The rest of the code in this repository is licensed under the AGPL v3.
Open Source & Contributing
Warp’s client codebase is open source and lives in this repository. We welcome community contributions and have designed a lightweight workflow to help new contributors get started. For the full contribution flow, read our CONTRIBUTING.md guide.
Issue to PR
Before filing, search existing issues for your bug or feature request. If nothing exists, file an issue using our templates. Security vulnerabilities should be reported privately as described in the CONTRIBUTING guide.
Once filed, a Warp maintainer reviews the issue and may apply a readiness label:
ready-to-spec– design is open for contributors to spec out.ready-to-implement– design is settled and code PRs are welcome.
Anyone can pick up a labeled issue — mention @oss-maintainers on an issue if you’d like it considered for a readiness label.
