Cmd+/ at any time to open the in-app shortcut sheet, which is searchable and reflects any custom bindings you have set. Every shortcut on this page can be rebound in Settings → Shortcuts.

The tab digits follow the visible tab order, and Continuum currently ships three tabs. Chat and Cowork are hidden while the product focuses on Code, and a hidden tab doesn’t reserve a number — so
Cmd+1 is Code, not Chat. If those tabs return, every digit renumbers to match.Sessions

Composer
In the Code tab,
Return alone also sends. The permission control is a one-click Plan ↔ Code pill — Code grants maximum permissions for every provider, Plan never bypasses approvals, and Cmd+Shift+1 / Cmd+Shift+2 flip between the two poles.Composer conventions
The composer placeholder reads What would you like to build today? — or, while a turn is running, Queue a follow-up while this turn runs.- Typing
/opens the slash-command palette. For Claude sessions this walks~/.claude/skills/and<repo>/.claude/skills/for installed skill definitions. For Codex sessions it lists the built-ins:/clear,/compact,/model,/help,/quit. - Typing
@opens the mention picker, listing files from the current repo, files the agent has already cited in this session, your other open sessions, and provisioning vendors. Shift+Returninserts a newline without sending.
Customizing shortcuts
Open Settings → Shortcuts to search every binding and override any of them. The override is matched live against your keystrokes, so a rebound chord takes effect immediately without restarting the app. The shortcut sheet (Cmd+/) always shows your current bindings.
Six chords are reserved for the system and can’t be claimed by an override:
Cmd+A, Cmd+C, Cmd+V, Cmd+X, Cmd+Z, and Cmd+Shift+Z. Continuum’s shortcut monitor runs ahead of the standard text-editing responders, so allowing a rebind onto one of these would swallow Select All, Copy, Paste, Cut, Undo, or Redo.
