How We Built Oz: Designing Warp’s Cloud Agent Platform
In this special Warp engineering roundtable, Ben Holmes sits down with Aloke Desai (Founding engineer at Warp), Ian Hodge (Lead Engineer, Oz), and Lili Wilson (Engineer, Oz) to unpack how Oz — Warp’s cloud agent platform — was designed and built.The conversation covers the evolution from Warpy, an early Slack bot MVP, to a fully programmable system capable of running parallel agents in secure cloud environments.Topics include:What Oz is and why Warp built itWhy traditional backlog planning doesn’t map cleanly to agent systemsPlanning mode and context engineeringGitHub review workflows for agents“Skills” as a reusable abstractionScheduled agent jobs and feature flag automationFine-grained environment securityTesting agentic systemsTerminal integrationPrompt best practicesRunning agents in parallelCloud mode in WarpUI automation and computer useArtifacts and session transcriptsWhat’s next for agent platformsThis episode is for engineers building AI-native tooling, platform teams experimenting with agents, and developers curious about how agent systems work beyond the demo.About OzOz is Warp’s programmable agent platform for running and orchestrating coding agents in secure cloud environments. Developers can run agents in parallel, automate recurring work, and build on top of agents using APIs, SDKs, and the Warp terminal.Learn more at: https://warp.dev/oz
