What you'll learn

Follow Warp’s journey from local agents to Warp Factories

Trace the move from interactive coding on a laptop to cloud agents and Warp Factories for ongoing development work.

Understand the building blocks of Warp Factories

See how issues, agent roles, models and permissions connect in factories defined as code, with review and verification.

Build continuous improvement into your factory

Learn from Warp’s feedback loops: score agent runs, spot recurring failures and review changes to skills.

Why this topic matters

Warp Factories provides infrastructure for running coding agents across a team: tasks, agent roles, review and verification, with factories defined in code. Ben traces Warp’s journey from local agents to cloud agents and factories, then shows how Warp uses Warp Factories to develop Warp itself. See how benchmarks and feedback from agent runs drive continuous improvement, with skill changes the team can review.
