Keyboard shortcuts
The keys that drive the Orb dock, from summoning it to switching between sessions.
Orb is built to run from the keyboard. The global hot key summons the dock from anywhere; the rest drive it once it is open.
The dock
| Keys | Action |
|---|---|
| ⌃ ⌥ Space | Toggle the dock from anywhere. This is the global hot key, and you can change it in Settings. |
| Esc | Dismiss the dock. Sessions keep running in the background. |
Sessions
| Keys | Action |
|---|---|
| + | Start a new session. |
| Return | Launch the agent with your prompt. |
| ⌘ ↑ / ⌘ ↓ | Switch between sessions. |
The global hot key uses the system hot key API, so it needs no Accessibility permission. See Getting started for the first-session walkthrough.
