Keyboard shortcuts
mod means ⌘ on macOS and Ctrl elsewhere. Every action is also a core:* Telescope command — nothing important is mouse-only.

Telescope prefixes
| Prefix | Searches | Keys |
|---|---|---|
> | Commands (core:*) | Enter run |
b | Notebooks | Enter open · ⇧ Enter move note · ⌘ Enter workspace |
t | Tags | Enter filter · ⇧ Enter add to note |
# | Headings & tasks in open note | Enter jump |
h | Themes | Enter apply |
Use a space after letter prefixes (b Projects); symbol prefixes may attach directly (>sync, #deploy). Esc steps back through filter, scope, all sources, then close. Full workflows are on the Telescope page.
Remapping
Reference today, remapping later: Preferences → Shortcuts filters the canonical command list, but does not yet edit bindings. Run any command from Telescope. Full key remapping is planned alongside the plugin API.
