Describe the solution you'd like?
I would like a way to explicitly tell Warp to auto-execute specific commands when restoring a session.
A few potential ways this could be implemented safely without risking the auto-execution of dangerous commands:
~/.warp/) where I can specify safe commands (e.g.,claude --resume,htop,k9s). If one of these was the active foreground process when Warp closed, auto-run it on restore.pwd, the command is executed.Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When I restart Warp, the terminal does an excellent job of restoring my windows, tabs, panes, and working directories. However, it drops the active processes that were running in those panes.
I frequently run persistent, long-standing CLI sessions—specifically agentic AI workflows like
claudeorcodex. Every time Warp restarts, I have to manually go through multiple panes and re-typeclaude --resume(or similar commands) to get my workspace back to its exact previous state.Additional context
As developers increasingly rely on long-running local agents and conversational CLIs alongside traditional editors, the terminal is becoming less of a transient command runner and more of a persistent dashboard. Allowing opt-in state restoration for these tools would be a massive workflow improvement.
