Keyboard shortcuts

Every keyboard shortcut in Kaizendex — search, logging from the chat, and the full Notion-style set in the editor, with Mac and Windows / Linux keys side by side.

Kaizendex is built to be driven from the keyboard on desktop — search, logging, and writing all have shortcuts, and the editor uses the same combinations you know from Notion. On your phone there's no keyboard to bind, so these apply to the web and desktop apps only.

Every table lists the Mac keys and the Windows / Linux keys side by side. ⌘ is Command, ⌥ is Option (Alt), and ⇧ is Shift.

Anywhere in the app

Action	Mac	Windows / Linux
Open search — jump to any collection, entry, or page	`⌘` + `K`	`Ctrl` + `K`
Close the open dialog, menu, or search	`Esc`	`Esc`

Logging from the chat

Type in the Your log composer and a list of matching collections and presets pops up above it, with the most likely one already selected — ranked by how well it matches and how often you actually log it. You never have to touch the mouse. These keys are the same on every platform:

Key	What it does
`Enter`	Log the selected suggestion
`↑` / `↓`	Move the selection through the suggestions
`↓` past the bottom	Step out of the list — `Enter` now sends your text to the AI
`Esc`	Dismiss the suggestions
`⇧` + `Enter`	New line in your message

Free-text that matches no collection — "did 30 pushups and ran 5k" — goes straight to the AI on Enter, and the send button always talks to the AI.

Writing in the editor

The block editor covers the common Notion set.
