^X^E in bash takes your current prompt and moves it to your $EDITOR.
for zsh:
autoload edit-command-line
zle -N edit-command-line
bindkey '^X^E' edit-command-line

Or v for those using bash's vi mode
or just type "fc" to edit the previous command.
Other shortcuts to edit prompt in editor:
Alt-e for fish
Ctrl-g for Claude code
Right, but if all terminals behaved like modern pieces of software, we would take functionality like Warp's as given, instead of suggesting workarounds.
What you describe sorta works, but you lose things like file/dir-based autocomplete, since your editor doesn't know about your shell session.
