Every shortcut the dashboard handles, grouped by where it works. On macOS use `Cmd`; on Windows and Linux use `Ctrl`. The tables write `Cmd/Ctrl` for both. | Surface | Shortcuts | | - | - | | [Anywhere](#anywhere) | Jump to a view, open Settings, show or hide the sidebar, Escape | | [Chat](#chat) | Send, new line, mentions, steering a task, room names | | [Slash commands](#slash-commands) | `/reset`, `/new`, `/rule` | | [Board](#board) | New task, views, today, previous and next, Find, the task drawer, the date picker | | [Org chart and team graph](#org-chart-and-team-graph) | Expand a Boo, its menu, remove a connection, the add picker | | [Settings](#settings) | Search, close | | [Editors and dialogs](#editors-and-dialogs) | Save, confirm, cancel, onboarding | ## Anywhere | Shortcut | What it does | | - | - | | `Cmd/Ctrl+1` | Open the Org chart | | `Cmd/Ctrl+2` | Open the Board | | `Cmd/Ctrl+3` | Open Connectors | | `Cmd/Ctrl+4` | Open Memory | | `Cmd/Ctrl+,` | Open Settings | | `Cmd/Ctrl+\` | Show or hide the sidebar | | `Escape` | Close the topmost menu, popover or dialog. With none open, close Settings; with Settings closed, leave an agent, Boo Zero or team chat for the **Welcome to Clawboo** screen | `Cmd/Ctrl+1` to `4`, `Cmd/Ctrl+,` and the view-leaving `Escape` do nothing while you type in a text field or while a dialog has the keyboard. `Cmd/Ctrl+\` works everywhere, even while you type. The sidebar's resize handle (**Resize sidebar**) takes the keyboard too: focus it, then use the left and right arrow keys to make the sidebar narrower or wider. Left at the narrowest width, or `Enter`, collapses it. Double-click the handle to reset its width. ## Chat These work in 1:1 chats, team chat and rooms. | Shortcut | What it does | | - | - | | `Enter` | Send the message | | `Shift+Enter` | Start a new line | | `@` | Open the mention list: teammates in team chat, teams in Boo Zero's chat | | `Up` / `Down` | Move through the mention list while it is open | | `Enter` or `Tab` | Insert the highlighted mention | | `Escape` | Close the mention list | In a team's **Tasks** card, the **Comment or steer this task** box sends with `Enter` (`Shift+Enter` for a new line), and `Escape` inside an open task returns to the task list. When you rename a room, `Enter` saves the name and `Escape` cancels. In **Search agents**, `Escape` clears the search and closes it. ## Slash commands Type these as the whole message. | Command | Where | What it does | | - | - | - | | `/reset` or `/new` | Any chat | The agent stops carrying the conversation so far. Your messages stay, and a divider marks the point. Not case-sensitive. | | `/rule ` | Team chat | Adds `` to the team's rules. It needs a space and some text after `/rule`. | [Team chat](https://docs.claw.boo/using/team-chat.md) covers starting fresh and clearing a chat; [Teams](https://docs.claw.boo/using/teams.md) covers team rules. ## Board These work while the board has focus, and not while you type, drag a card, or have a task, the new-task form, a Routine dialog or Settings open. | Shortcut | What it does | | - | - | | `C` | Open **New task** | | `K` | Switch to **Kanban** (`A` also works) | | `D` | Switch to **Today** | | `W` | Switch to **Week** | | `M` | Switch to **Month** | | `T` | Go to today (in **Today**, **Week** and **Month**) | | `Left` / `Right` | Previous or next week or month (in **Week** and **Month**) | | `/` | Open **Find** | | `Escape` | Clear a picked date | While focus is inside the calendar grid, the left and right arrow keys scroll it instead. `Cmd/Ctrl+K` also opens **Find**, from anywhere on the Board page and even while you type in a field. It does nothing while a dialog, a menu or the task drawer is open. In the task drawer, `J` opens the next task in the card's column and `K` the previous one, the same as the up and down arrow buttons at the top of the drawer. They do nothing while focus is in a field or an open list. `Escape` closes the drawer. In **Find**, focus stays in the search field: `Up` and `Down` move through the results, `Enter` shows the highlighted task on the board, and `Shift+Enter` opens it. A Routine always opens. In the date picker (click the date range title, **Choose a date**), the arrow keys move a day or a week, `Page Up` and `Page Down` move a month, `Home` and `End` go to the start and end of the week, and `Enter` picks the day. When you mark a task done or cancel it, `Enter` confirms the dialog and the arrow keys move between the day choices. ## Org chart and team graph The same keys work on the Org chart and on a team's graph card. Use `Tab` to focus a Boo first. | Shortcut | What it does | | - | - | | `Enter` or `Space` on a Boo | Expand or collapse the tiles around it | | `Menu` key, `Shift+F10` or `Alt+Enter` on a Boo | Open its menu (**Open agent**, **Delete**). On a Mac, `Option+Enter`. | | Arrow keys on a selected Boo | Move it, unless the canvas is locked | | `Backspace` or `Delete` with a connection selected | Remove that connection: a routing link, an added skill or a shared connector | A connection that came with the agent or its runtime cannot be removed; the graph says why instead. When you drag a thread from a Boo to empty space, the picker that opens takes `Up` and `Down` to move, `Enter` to pick, `Right` to open a category, `Left` or `Backspace` (in an empty search) to go back, and `Tab` to close. ## Settings When **Settings** opens, the **Search settings** field has focus. Type to narrow the list to panels whose name or keywords contain what you typed. For example, `cron` finds Routines, `api key` finds Providers and System, `budget` finds Tokens Used and Governance, and `traces` finds Observability. | Shortcut | What it does | | - | - | | `Cmd/Ctrl+,` | Open Settings | | `Tab` / `Shift+Tab` | Move between controls; focus stays in Settings | | `Escape` | Close Settings (an open picker inside it first) | ## Editors and dialogs | Where | Shortcut | What it does | | - | - | - | | An agent file editor (**Agent Files**, or the full-screen editor) | `Cmd/Ctrl+S` | Save the file | | The full-screen agent file editor | `Escape` | Save any unsaved files and close | | **Personality**, with **Use Custom Instructions** on | `Cmd/Ctrl+S` | Save the custom instructions (they also save when you leave the field) | | A confirmation dialog | `Enter` | Confirm | | A confirmation dialog | `Escape` | Cancel | | Onboarding | `Escape` | Go back one step (onboarding cannot be dismissed) | | A field for an API key or Gateway address | `Enter` | Save or connect, the same as the button next to it | The file editors also take the usual undo and redo keys. > [accordion] Under the hood > > Source of truth: `apps/web/src/features/layout/ContentArea.tsx` (view shortcuts and `Escape`), `features/layout/AppSidebar.tsx` (sidebar), `features/chat/chatComponents.tsx` (composer), `features/chat/resetConversation.ts` and `lib/teamRules.ts` (slash commands), `features/board/BoardPanel.tsx`, `features/board/TaskDetailDrawer.tsx` and `features/board/calendar/` (board), `features/graph/graphKeyAction.ts` and `features/graph/ThreadPicker.tsx` (graph), `features/settings/SettingsModal.tsx` (Settings search and its keywords), `features/shared/useDismissableLayer.ts` (one `Escape` closes one layer). ## Related * [Dashboard tour](https://docs.claw.boo/getting-started/dashboard-tour.md): where each view lives * [Board](https://docs.claw.boo/using/board.md): views, the toolbar, Find and the task drawer * [Org chart](https://docs.claw.boo/using/org-chart.md): what the tiles and connections mean * [Team chat](https://docs.claw.boo/using/team-chat.md): rooms, mentions, `/reset` and Clear chat This documentation is built and hosted on [Mintlify](https://mintlify.com), a developer documentation platform.
