简体中文 · 日本語

Currently based on Warp; evolving independently going forward.

Zap is an open, local-first terminal with first-class AI and agent support. Plug in any AI provider, bring in any CLI agent, manage SSH hosts inside the terminal — with keys, history and agent state staying on your machine by default.

What Zap adds over upstream Warp

  • No mandatory cloud — no account, login, Drive sync or cloud agent history required.
  • BYOP AI providers — any OpenAI-compatible endpoint, plus native OpenAI / Anthropic / Gemini / DeepSeek / Ollama protocols. Keys stay local.
  • Third-party CLI agents — DeepSeek-TUI / Codex CLI / Claude Code / Google Antigravity (agy) wired into Blocks and the notification center.
  • Built-in SSH host manager — manage hosts, configs and sessions inside the terminal, with tmux integration.
  • Editable system prompts — minijinja templates rendered on the client.
  • Rendering fixes — tuned Markdown pipeline; CJK soft-wrap caret and bold subpixel fixes.
  • Localized UI — English / Simplified Chinese / Japanese out of the box, community-extensible.
  • Privacy defaults — Cloud Agent / Computer Use / Referral / telemetry off by default.

Migrating from OpenWarp or Warp
