Keyboard shortcuts
Shortcuts apply to the focused window or terminal. Search fields, IME composition and modal dialogs suppress some workspace shortcuts.
Workspace
| Shortcut | Action |
|---|---|
Ctrl+Shift+N | New local session dialog; use + Session for a new SSH profile in eShell |
Alt+O | Open the local eShell SSH session manager, including inside tmux/Claude and detached terminal windows |
Ctrl+Tab | Switch terminal tabs |
Ctrl+Shift+B | Toggle the left sidebar |
Ctrl+Shift+T | Toggle dark/light theme |
Ctrl+, | Open Settings |
| Middle-click a terminal tab | Close that tab |
Terminal
| Shortcut | Action |
|---|---|
Ctrl+Shift+C / Ctrl+Insert | Copy selected text |
Ctrl+Shift+V / Shift+Insert | Paste clipboard text |
Ctrl+Alt+V | Forward the chord to a terminal app, such as a CLI supporting image paste |
Ctrl+Shift+F | Find in retained output |
Shift+PageUp / Shift+PageDown | Browse local scrollback |
Shift+drag | Select text while terminal mouse reporting is active |
Shift+wheel | Browse local scrollback during mouse reporting |
Shift+right-click | Open the host context menu during mouse reporting |
Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V and Ctrl+T are normally forwarded to the terminal program rather than used as host copy, paste or new-tab shortcuts. Image paste with Ctrl+Alt+V depends on the program inside the terminal.
