Description

Describe the solution

** Support for the running list of non-shell based REPLs without Warp features ( i.e. Blocks, Autocomplete) **

irb, ipython, pipenv, psql, node, mongosh, rails, julia, iex, nix-shell, etc.

How does this Feature request thread work?

We've included comments below for each of the REPLs that has been requested, please 👍 each comment to signal interest in that REPL.

If the REPL isn't on the list, please add a comment for it along with a brief description of the REPL in a similar format (e.g. "Support REPL command: REPL description")

Subscribe to get updates on the status of this request, the Warp team will post any comments if one of the REPLs support is being worked on.

Please avoid commenting with the same REPLs, or comments like "+1 for ipython" as they create spam on the thread.

Note this is a different issue than support for shell-based "subshells", which we launched and you can learn more about here.

Research direction

No source files, tests, or implementation entry points are named. Start by reviewing the requested REPL list and the distinction from shell-based subshells, then locate Warp's existing terminal and subshell handling; done means the agreed non-shell REPLs work without Warp Blocks or Autocomplete features.
