Warp July 31, 2026 Changelog

This update is all about making Warp's AI agents (like the "Oz" tool) work more smoothly, especially if you use them for coding in the cloud. It matters most to developers who use Warp to automate their work, because it gives them better control over their AI tools, fixes a lot of frustrating glitches, and tightens up security.

What's new

• Custom AI setups: If you plug your own AI models into Warp, you can now choose exactly how they communicate using standard formats (like OpenAI or Anthropic schemas).
• Better tool tracking: When outside AI tools finish a task that isn't just a code update (a "Pull Request"), they can now report what they did back to Warp.
• Vim indenting: The built-in code editor now supports the < and > keys to easily shift text left or right, a favorite shortcut for Vim users.
• Fresh icon: The old armadillo logo is gone! Warp now uses a theme-adaptive "W" logo everywhere that changes to fit your light or dark mode.
• Agent settings via files: You can now set up how your AI agents run using a settings file, which makes it easier to share those settings with everyone on your team.

Improvements

• Faster cloud login: When setting up cloud agents on Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Warp now automatically logs you in so you don't have to do it manually.
• Smarter secret checks: "Secrets" (like hidden passwords or API keys) are now checked against a 128 KB size limit *before* an AI agent starts running, so it won't crash halfway through.
• Easier agent prompts: You can now set or change an AI agent's instructions right from the command line tool using a simple command.
• Better file opening: When you click on a file reference in a code block, it opens in your favorite code editor. If you don't have one set, Warp opens it for you.
• Clearer tool warnings: When an AI tool asks for permission to run, Warp now tells you exactly which tool it is and which server it's coming from.
• Real logouts: Logging out of Warp now actually signs you out of the web version too, so you don't get instantly logged back in without meaning to.
• Longer recording overlays: When watching a recording of an AI doing tasks on a computer, the on-screen text stays visible long enough for you to actually read it.
• More AI choices: The oz command-line tool now lets you pick specific AI models (like Claude or Codex) depending on the tool you're using.

Fixes

• Security patch: Fixed a known security flaw (CVE-2026-50185) by updating a behind-the-scenes software piece.
• Fixed hidden menus: The dropdown menu for picking a cloud computer to run your AI on was disappearing; it now shows up correctly.
• Cleaner text: Markdown (a way to format text) no longer accidentally shows hidden HTML code as plain, visible text.
• No more error spam: If a bunch of desktop errors happen at once, Warp now limits the pop-up notifications so they don't flood your screen and stay readable.
• Accurate settings search: Searching in the Settings menu now correctly filters the AI and Code pages, only showing what you searched for instead of everything at once.
• Fixed missing dropdowns: The menu for picking a "Runner" (the thing that executes your code) was missing from an approval screen, but it's back now.
• Security fix for local control: Removed a feature that let outside programs choose which shell (command line) to open, which stops bad code from forcing unsafe ones to launch.
• Fixed weird text spacing: Fixed an issue where the command prompt in the zsh terminal looked crooked or misaligned.
• Accurate video times: Video recordings of AI tasks now show the correct total time after the video is processed.
• Fixed Vim shortcuts: The Vim shortcuts for deleting, changing, or copying text inside brackets (d%, c%, y%) were doing nothing; they now work perfectly.
• Fixed click-and-drag recordings: In computer-use recordings, the marks showing where you clicked and dragged were showing up in the wrong spot or getting split apart. They are fixed now.
• Better error messages: When Warp's servers go down, it used to blame your AI model ID. Now it correctly tells you the server is having an outage.
• Fixed folder paths with spaces: Creating a new "Worktree" (a separate workspace for your code) used to break if your folder name had spaces in it. It works fine now.
• Your team comes first: If you're part of multiple teams, your main team is now correctly listed first when you load your workspace.
• Fixed voice input: Voice typing was sending half-finished sentences to the AI. It now waits and sends the complete thought.
