The command palette
Press Cmd/Ctrl+K anywhere (or click the search box in the top bar) to open the command palette: one box that navigates to any screen, runs any action, and finds any strategy or run — without touching the mouse.
How it works
- Type to filter. Matching is fuzzy —
gdfinds Go to Data,expcsvfinds Export results CSV. Matched letters highlight. ↑↓move,⏎runs,esccloses. Opening remembers where your focus was and puts it back when the palette closes.- Recent — with an empty query, commands you've used recently list first.
- Sections group the rest: navigation, the current screen's actions, utilities.
- Disabled commands explain themselves. An action that can't run right now stays visible with the reason (e.g. Select rows first) instead of disappearing.
- Destructive commands confirm inline. Anything that stops or removes something arms on the first
⏎— ⏎ to confirm — stops this run — and only runs on the second.
