Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue from Finder through Services using “New Warp Window Here,” with an existing Warp window open. Trace the Finder Services entry point and its handling of the selected file or directory; done means the action opens a new Warp window rather than a tab, while “New Warp Tab Here” retains its tab behavior.

Does this block you from using Warp daily?

No

Is this a Warp specific issue? (i.e. does it happen in Terminal, iTerm, Kitty, etc.)

Yes, this I confirmed this only happens in Warp, not other terminals.
