Agentic development environment built with the community
The best, longest-lasting software is built with the people who use it, so we've opened up Warp to the community. To make this possible, Oz-managed agents do the heavy lifting (coding, planning, testing), letting community members focus on ideas, direction, and verification. 25K+ stars added and 500+ contributors in week one.
Zach here, founder of Warp. Two weeks ago we open-sourced Warp — and honestly, the response blew us away. We’re bringing it to Product Hunt today because this community is exactly the kind of community we want to build with.
The short version: Warp is now open-source, and the community can participate in building it using an agent-first workflow managed by Oz, our cloud agent orchestration platform. Community members shape direction and verify behavior. Oz-managed agents do a lot of the implementation heavy lifting. The Warp team reviews and ships.
We're doing this because we think we can ship a better Warp, more quickly, by working with our community to supervise a fleet of agents. The biggest bottleneck to development is no longer writing code — it's the human-in-the-loop activities around it: deciding what to build, speccing it clearly, and making sure it's right. Opening up lets us be more responsive to users and work with them on the long tail of our backlog.
The response so far has been pretty wild:
25K+ new GitHub stars in week one — we more than doubled, to around 56K
500+ unique contributors opened hundreds of PRs
Great conversations with the community about what people want to see in Warp next
We still have a lot to figure out to build the right workbench for agentic development. For example, we’re actively discussing how to support local and arbitrary models in a way that matches what users actually want, not just what is easiest for us.
Would love to hear: what would you want to build or fix in Warp? And what are you skeptical about?
Thanks for checking it out — excited to build this together.

Who hunted Warp Open-Source?
Warp Open-Source was hunted by Chris Messina. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.

👋 Hey Product Hunt community,
