Selection as Context

Attach text or diffs directly from Warp’s editor or Code Review panel as context for your Agent prompts.

Attaching selections from Warp's native code editor

When you have Warp’s native code editor open beside a regular pane, you can easily attach specific lines of code as context:

1. Select text in the editor. A tooltip will appear in the bottom-right corner of the selection.

2. Add as context by clicking the tooltip or using the keyboard shortcuts Cmd + L (macOS) or CTRL + SHIFT + L (Windows or Linux).

3. Warp automatically adds the relative file path and context, in addition to the line numbers of the hunk, as a formatted string into the prompt.

This makes it easy to highlight just the lines you want the Agent to analyze or modify.

1. Attaching a diff will automatically insert the relevant file path and changed lines into your prompt.

This helps the Agent understand exactly what has been modified, making it easier to request explanations, feedback, or follow-up edits.
