The editor supports standard editing shortcuts (Cmd/Ctrl+Z undo, Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+Z redo, Cmd/Ctrl+A select all, Cmd/Ctrl+F find). Save is automatic — there is no save shortcut because there is no explicit save action.

Help panel

  • ? — open the panel (from anywhere in the app, outside text inputs)
  • Escape — close the panel
  • Panel has its own search field — click or tab into it, then type
Command palette → help
You can also open the help center by running the Help command from the command palette — type help after hitting Cmd+K.
