AI and billing updates
Warp says it enabled custom inference endpoint configuration for AI models on stable. (warp.dev/changelog/2026/">https://docs.warp.dev/changelog/2026/)
Warp also says it enabled solo-user bring-your-own-key (BYOK) support and launched a redesigned Billing & Usage page. (https://docs.warp.dev/changelog/2026/)
Warp notes that custom AI model selection is no longer available for cloud agent runs, while custom endpoints remain available for local agents and non-cloud conversations. (https://docs.warp.dev/changelog/2026/)
Security: new OSC 52 clipboard controls
Warp says it added a setting to control terminal clipboard access via OSC 52, showing a warning banner when access is blocked, and it restricted OSC 52 clipboard write access behind a new user-configurable setting. (https://docs.warp.dev/changelog/2026/)
Orchestration and code review workflow improvements (selection)
A few other notable improvements in this release include:
- double-click pane dividers to evenly redistribute split panes,
- a create-environment flow in the orchestration environment picker,

- CLI commands for managing API keys.
