# Keyboard shortcuts

> Use and customize keyboard shortcuts to navigate the Cake Agents web UI faster.

Keyboard shortcuts let you jump around the Cake Agents web UI without reaching for the mouse. A few shortcuts are built in, and four are configurable per user.

## View all shortcuts

Press <kbd>Shift</kbd> + <kbd>/</kbd> anywhere in the web UI to open the **Keyboard Shortcuts** modal. The modal lists every active shortcut, including any you have customized.

You can also open it from the user menu in the bottom-left corner: click your name, then **Keyboard Shortcuts**.

## Built-in shortcuts

These shortcuts are always available and cannot be changed.

| Action                            | Shortcut                                                         |
| --------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Open Spotlight (command palette)  | <kbd>Cmd</kbd> / <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>K</kbd>, or <kbd>/</kbd> |
| Open the Keyboard Shortcuts modal | <kbd>Shift</kbd> + <kbd>/</kbd>                                  |

## Configurable shortcuts

You can rebind these shortcuts. Defaults use <kbd>Alt</kbd> instead of the meta key (<kbd>Cmd</kbd> / <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>) because meta combinations are usually reserved by the operating system or browser.

| Action                | Default                                          | Availability                         |
| --------------------- | ------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------ |
| New session           | <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Shift</kbd> + <kbd>N</kbd> | All users                            |
| Compact session       | <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Shift</kbd> + <kbd>C</kbd> | While viewing a session you can edit |
| User settings         | <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>,</kbd>                    | All users                            |
| Organization settings | <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>;</kbd>                    | Users with the admin role            |

## Change a shortcut

1. In the bottom-left, click your name → **User Settings**.
2. Open the **Interface** tab.
3. Under **Hotkeys**, click the shortcut you want to change and press the new key combination.

Your change saves automatically and applies immediately. Clear a shortcut to disable that action.

## Notes

* Some combinations may be intercepted by your operating system or browser and never reach Cake Agents. If a shortcut appears to do nothing, try a different combination.
* Shortcut preferences are stored per user and apply anywhere you sign in to the same Cake Agents environment.
