Customize Warp's appearance

Warp is highly customizable — from appearance and keyboard shortcuts to agent behavior and autonomy.

Here’s a quick walkthrough of how to make Warp feel like your development environment.

---

1. Changing themes

Open the Command Palette with:

• Cmd+P (macOS)
• Ctrl+Shift+P (Windows/Linux)

Type “themes” to open the theme picker.

You can preview and apply any theme instantly — for example, switching from the default theme to Phenomenon.

2. Adjusting input placement

Warp’s input bar can live in three different positions:

1. Bottom-pinned — chat-style; commands flow upward.
2. Scrolling input — traditional terminal style; input stays near the bottom as output moves up.
3. Top-pinned (Warp-exclusive) — input stays fixed at the top; results appear below.

3. Managing AI & agent settings

Open Settings > Agents > Warp Agent to control:

• Which model Warp uses (e.g., Claude 3.5 for code generation, GPT-4o for planning).
• How much autonomy agents have for:
  • Reading files
  • Generating diffs
  • Running commands
  • Planning tasks

You can also allowlist or block specific commands that always require confirmation.

4. Indexing your codebases

Warp prompts you to index your codebase the first time you cd into it.
Indexing enables faster:

• Code navigation
• Summaries and searches
• Refactors and bug fixes

You can also manually re-index a folder from the sidebar anytime.

5. Team collaboration

In the Teams tab, you can:

• Invite teammates
• Share Warp Drive assets like prompts, templates, and environment variables

This makes Warp a shared, contextual workspace — not just an individual tool.

6. Look & feel

Under Appearance, you can tweak:

• Fonts
• App icons
• Padding and editor density
• VIM mode for command editing
• Custom key bindings
