Keyboard shortcuts
Desktop builds (Windows / Linux / macOS) are keyboard-driven. The action shortcuts below are remappable — change them per action under Desktop Shortcuts — so the values here are starting points, not fixed keys.
Remappable actions
These actions each have a default binding that you can rebind and that Pyre persists. Set the combo you want in Desktop Shortcuts.
| Action | Binding |
|---|---|
| Open Settings | Configurable in Desktop Shortcuts |
| New Chat | Configurable in Desktop Shortcuts |
| Search Characters | Configurable in Desktop Shortcuts |
| Command Palette | Configurable in Desktop Shortcuts |
Tip
The Command Palette is the fastest way to jump around if you don't remember a binding — open it and search for the action by name.
Input and window keys
| Keys | What it does |
|---|---|
| Enter | Send the message (desktop). |
| Shift+Enter | Insert a newline instead of sending. |
| F11 | Toggle fullscreen. |
Note
On Android, Enter does not send — it inserts a newline. Use the send button to commit a message on mobile. Sending with Enter is a desktop convenience.
