# Search and keyboard shortcuts

> Look up what the command palette searches, every keyboard shortcut, and the screens you reach only by search or URL.

This page is for anyone who wants to move around the dashboard faster. It lists what the command palette finds, every keyboard shortcut, how to reach screens that are not in the sidebar, how pins work, and how the layout changes on a phone.

## Command palette

The command palette finds agents, missions, docs, emails, and screens, and it runs a few actions.

| To                              | Do this                                                                                                                    |
| ------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Open or close the palette       | Press **⌘K** on a Mac or **Ctrl+K** on Windows and Linux. This works on every screen, also while you type in a text field. |
| Open the palette with the mouse | Click **Search or jump to…** in the top bar.                                                                               |
| Move through the results        | Press **↑** and **↓**, or **Tab** and **Shift+Tab**. **Tab** wraps from the last result to the first.                      |
| Open the selected result        | Press **Enter**, or click the result.                                                                                      |
| Close the palette               | Press **Esc**, or click outside it.                                                                                        |

When nothing matches, the palette shows **No results for** and your text.

### What the palette searches

With an empty search field, the palette lists every screen under **Navigate** and every action under **Actions**. When you type, it shows matching items first and matching screens and actions after them. It shows up to 40 results. Every word that you type must match.

| Group                        | Matches on                                                                                           | Results shown |

| **Missions**                 | Title                                                                                                | Up to 5       |

| **Email**                    | Subject and sender                                                                                   | Up to 5       |
| **Workflows**                | The name of a workflow in What's possible                                                            | Up to 4       |
| Apps, with no group heading  | App name in the Integrations catalog. The row says **Connected** or **In the catalog · connect it**. | Up to 4       |
| **Help & guides**            | Docs page title and summary. Selecting a result opens the page at squad.so/docs in a new tab.        | Up to 4       |
| **Navigate** and **Actions** | Screen name, its description, and related words                                                      | All matches   |

Email results come from the emails that the Email screen loaded. If you have not opened **Email** since you opened the dashboard, the palette shows no email results.

Screens also match related words that are not shown. For example, "timezone" finds **Workspace general**, and "api key" finds **AI Tokens** and **Secrets**.

The palette has no other actions. To ask an agent to do something, use chat.

## Keyboard shortcuts

### Shortcuts on every screen

These single keys work when the cursor is not in a text field. They do not work with **⌘**, **Ctrl**, or **Alt** held down. Letter keys work only as lowercase letters, so they do nothing with **Shift** or Caps Lock on.

| Key                                                   | What it does                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         |
| ----------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **⌘K** or **Ctrl+K**                                  | Opens or closes the command palette. This one also works in text fields.                                                                                                                                                                             |
| **H**                                                 | Opens Home.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          |

| **C**                                                 | Opens Chat.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          |

| **Option+1** to **Option+9** (**Alt+1** to **Alt+9**) | Jumps to open conversation tab 1 to 9. This works only when two or more tabs are open, and not while you type in a text field. Each tab shows its key, such as **⌥1**, and its hover card says **Press ⌥1 to open it.** The legend does not list it. |

### Shortcuts on one screen

| **Esc** in a list              | Closes the list.                                                  |

## Pins

Pins keep a mission, doc, email, reminder, or conversation one click away in the PINNED section of the sidebar.

* The PINNED section is hidden until you pin something. To pin a doc, an email, or a reminder before then, use a **Pin** action in the palette.
* You can also pin a mission from its card menu, and a conversation from its header with **Pin to sidebar**. Pinning a conversation again unpins it.
* Pins are saved to your account. They show on every computer and phone where you sign in to the workspace.
* A pinned conversation shows its current name, also after you rename it.
* A new pin shows after Squad saves it. If the save fails, the sidebar does not change. Try again.
* For how to pin from each screen, see [Pin things to the sidebar](/docs/chat#pin-things-to-the-sidebar).
* Reset workspace removes all pins. For the size limit, see [Limits and defaults](/docs/limits-and-defaults#sidebar).

### On a phone

On a small screen, the dashboard changes its layout.

| Control                         | What it does                                                                            |

| **Search or jump to…**          | Still in the top bar. It opens the command palette.                                     |

The help icon and the **What's new** icon are hidden on a phone. Use the palette entries **Help & support** and **What's new** instead. Keyboard shortcuts need a keyboard.

The **Keyboard shortcuts** link at the bottom of **Help & support** opens the command palette. To see the shortcut legend, press **?**.

For the settings behind these screens, see [Settings reference](/docs/settings).
