The terminal-native coding stack

Warp is the shell, Aider maps and commits, DeepSeek reasons the diffs. Not Cursor and not a PR bot.

Who owns what

  1. Warp

    The shell — blocks, history, running tests. Not the git write and not the model.

    Try Warp (opens in a new tab)
  2. Aider

    The repo loop — AST, apply, atomic commit. Not a second terminal emulator.

    Try Aider (opens in a new tab)
  3. DeepSeek

    The plan and the search/replace. Not the filesystem and not git.

    Try DeepSeek (opens in a new tab)

How to use this stack

  1. Open the checkout in Warp. Point Aider at DeepSeek — not a second chat in the browser.
  2. Aider architect mode plans the multi-file change. DeepSeek writes the diffs.
  3. Aider applies and commits. You confirm before it runs destructive commands.
  4. Tests and build stay in Warp blocks. This is not the 2026 coding stack — that one lives in Cursor.
