Warp (posting on X) claims it now lets users close a laptop and have agent conversations automatically hand off to the cloud, a feature the company says is live in the latest version. In a follow-up post, Warp states the feature can be enabled through Settings > Agents > Warp Agent > Cloud Handoff and credits @DavidPlakon for the work.
The announcement appears to target longer-running agent sessions that would otherwise be interrupted when a machine is closed or left behind. Warp’s wording suggests the handoff is meant to preserve continuity between local and cloud execution, rather than forcing a fresh setup each time.
Reaction on X was mixed but generally curious. One user called it “awesome,” another asked whether it works for CLI, and one commenter joked that the update could reduce the need to carry a half-closed laptop through an airport.
Not all responses were positive. One user questioned why Warp would push cloud-based agent runs when a local workaround could apparently achieve a similar result.
