Summary

When using split panes in Warp, agent-suggested prompts based on chat history become cut off and unreadable, reducing the utility of the AI suggestions.

Problem

Agent suggested prompts that help users with common tasks (e.g., committing changes) are being clipped or hidden when the terminal has split panes. This makes it impossible to see the full suggestion without resizing or closing panes.

Expected behavior

Agent suggested prompts should remain fully visible and readable regardless of pane layout. The suggestions should either: (1) wrap to fit within the available space, (2) be displayed in a dedicated area that doesn't get clipped, or (3) expand/reflow to accommodate the content while respecting pane boundaries.

Actual behavior

When panes are split (e.g., showing chat history alongside other content), the agent-suggested prompt text is cut off mid-word, making the suggestion illegible. The user cannot read the full suggestion without manually adjusting the pane layout.

Reproduction hints

  • Open Warp with the agent/chat interface
  • Perform an action that triggers an agent suggestion (e.g., stage changes in a git repository)
  • Split the panes to show chat history alongside other content
  • Observe that the suggested prompt text is cut off and unreadable

Additional context

This issue impacts the discoverability and usability of agent suggestions, which are designed to help users by proactively suggesting relevant commands based on context. When suggestions are hidden, users may not realize they're available or what they contain. The fix should ensure the UI gracefully handles space constraints across different pane configurations.

Source thread

@​vikvang1: In Warp, we have agent suggested prompts based on your chat history. For example, I just finished up a change here and Warp's agent knows I'd like to commit the changes. However, since my panes are split, the suggestion is cut off, and I can't see that the changes are to be https:​//t.co/fktrRbzrJF
