# Answer Question Answer any question about Warp or Oz by searching the documentation in this repository and synthesizing a comprehensive, matter-of-fact response with links to source pages. For deep technical questions, also search Warp's source repositories for implementation details. ## Workflow ### 1. Search for relevant docs The documentation lives in `docs/` with these sections: - `src/content/docs/` — Warp Terminal and IDE (getting started, terminal, code editor, knowledge & collaboration) - `src/content/docs/agent-platform/` — Agent Platform (local agents, cloud agents, capabilities, integrations) - `src/content/docs/reference/` — Technical reference (Oz CLI, API & SDK) - `src/content/docs/support-and-community/` — Support (troubleshooting, billing, privacy) - `src/content/docs/enterprise/` — Enterprise - `src/content/docs/changelog/` — Changelog Search strategy: - Use `codebase_semantic_search` on the docs repo to find relevant doc pages for the user's question. - Use `grep` when searching for exact feature names, settings, CLI commands, or specific terms. - Read matched files to gather authoritative content. Skim broadly first, then read key sections in detail. - If the question spans multiple topics (e.g. "How do skills work with cloud agents?"), search each topic independently and cross-reference. - Check `src/sidebar.ts` if you need to locate a page by name; it holds the full navigation tree for every section. ### 2. Search source code (if needed) For technical questions where the docs are insufficient, incomplete, or you want to validate your answer, search Warp's source repositories: - **warp-internal** — Client-side code (Rust, Swift). Contains terminal features, editor, UI, Agent Mode client logic, Warp Drive, etc. - **warp-server** — Server-side code (Go). Contains API endpoints, cloud agent orchestration, billing, auth, etc. To find these repos, search for directories named `warp-internal` and `warp-server` on the user's machine. If not found, ask the user where they are. Use source code to: - Verify technical behavior, edge cases, or implementation details that docs don't fully cover - Find exact CLI flag names, config options, or API parameters - Understand how features interact under the hood - Answer "how does X actually work?" questions that go beyond the docs Both repos are indexed for `codebase_semantic_search`. Use `grep` for exact symbol/function names. **Important:** Docs are the primary source of truth for user-facing answers. Use source code as supplementary context, not as a replacement. Always prefer doc-based explanations when available. ### 3. Compose the answer - Be direct and matter-of-fact. Answer the question, don't summarize the docs. - Be comprehensive — cover what the user needs to fully understand the answer — but don't pad with tangential information. - Use Warp's standard terminology from `AGENTS.md` and the full glossary in `.agents/references/terminology.md`. Key rules: capitalize feature names (Agent, Agent Mode, Warp Drive, Codebase Context), use "agent" (generic) or "Warp Agent" (built-in harness) not "Oz agent" or "Ozzie", use "credits" not "AI credits." - If the docs do not cover the topic, say so honestly. Do not guess or fabricate information. ### 4. Generate doc links Every answer must end with a **Relevant docs** section listing links to the source pages used. URL mapping rules (file path → published URL): | File path | URL | |---|---| | `src/content/docs/{path}.mdx` | `https://docs.warp.dev/{path}` | | `src/content/docs/agent-platform/{path}.mdx` | `https://docs.warp.dev/agent-platform/{path}` | | `src/content/docs/reference/{path}.mdx` | `https://docs.warp.dev/reference/{path}` | | `src/content/docs/support-and-community/{path}.mdx` | `https://docs.warp.dev/support-and-community/{path}` | | `src/content/docs/enterprise/{path}.mdx` | `https://docs.warp.dev/enterprise/{path}` | | `src/content/docs/changelog/{path}.mdx` | `https://docs.warp.dev/changelog/{path}` | Key rules: - **`src/content/docs/` is the homepage space** — the `warp/` prefix is NOT included in URLs. Example: `src/content/docs/terminal/blocks/block-basics.mdx` → `https://docs.warp.dev/terminal/blocks/block-basics` - All other spaces include the space name in the URL. Example: `src/content/docs/agent-platform/capabilities/skills.mdx` → `https://docs.warp.dev/agent-platform/capabilities/skills` - Strip the `.mdx` extension. - `index.mdx` resolves to the parent directory path. Example: `src/content/docs/platform/integrations/index.mdx` → `https://docs.warp.dev/platform/integrations` ### 5. Output format ``` [Direct, comprehensive answer to the question] **Relevant docs:** - [Page title](https://docs.warp.dev/...) - [Page title](https://docs.warp.dev/...) ```
