feat(web): rebindable keyboard shortcuts and a Keybinds settings page - #470
Users can rebind the app's keyboard shortcuts from My Settings → Keybinds (/:org/my-settings/keybinds), Discord style: press a row's key, press the new shortcut, done.
How
core/lib/keybindings/key-combo.ts: KeyCombo, a branded Effect Schema type that only accepts combos Foldkit can bind, in one canonical spelling. Mod is ⌘ on a Mac and Ctrl elsewhere, so a recorded key is portable. Also turns key presses into combos and draws platform labels.
core/lib/keybindings/keymap.ts: defineKeymap({...}) declares every action once (label, description, category, default key, rebindable). It gives ActionId/Overrides schemas, resolve/assign/unbind/reset, and bindings() that builds Foldkit KeyBindings for the actions a subscription owns. No two rebindable actions ever share a key: assigning a taken key moves it, and resolving drops a default an override took. That matters because Foldkit throws on a table with duplicates.
app-keymap.ts replaces hotkey-registry.ts and shortcut-catalog.ts. Composer and focused-message keys are listed as fixed, so they show in the dialog and in settings, and a rebinding warns when it shadows one (e.g. ⌘B is bold).
Root state: overrides are stored per device (like the sound settings, via readStored/writeStored) and loaded through Flags. Pages read Shared.keys (resolved) and Shared.keybindingOverrides, and save through PageOutMessage.RequestedKeybindings. Stored overrides are cleaned on load, so a renamed action or a bad entry falls back to its default instead of voiding the rest.
Consumers: the layout and channel hotkey subscriptions use the user's keys as a dependency, so a rebinding restarts them. The ⌘/ dialog shows current keys plus a "Customize keybinds" button, and the sidebar hints (⌘K, the create-channel tip) follow overrides.
Recorder: a capture-phase window listener that is live only while recording. It takes every press before the app's hotkeys or the browser see it, shows held modifiers live, and cancels on bare Escape, an outside click, or window blur.
Rules for recorded keys
A recorded key needs ⌘, Ctrl or Win. Alt only counts with a key that types nothing, like an arrow, because ⌥ types @ or ø on a Mac. Only Esc, PgUp/PgDn and F-keys can be used alone.
Any other key would fire in the composer and take the keystroke. The recorder refuses it, says why, and keeps recording. Keys like this are also dropped when settings load.
Reset puts the default key back and takes it from the action that had it.
Search matches the names people type for keys: cmd k, option, ctrl+shift, esc.
Testing
bun run lint is clean. bun run typecheck passes in web-foldkit and native. bunx vitest run in web-foldkit passes: 2572 tests.
New tests cover:
combo parsing and labels
keymap resolve, conflicts, reset taking a key back, and per-entry clean
every rebindable default being safe to type
page scene tests: refusal, a combined notice, reset, search
recorder tests from real keydowns
rebound layout hotkeys
a root story
In a running app (local stack, headless Chrome), I checked:
recording a key
moving a key from another action
the warning when a key clashes with a built-in shortcut
pressing the rebound ⌘J, which opened the inbox
the ⌘/ dialog
dark mode
search
a refused bare key
reset taking the key back
Recording
Key moved from another action
Clashes with a built-in
⌘/ dialog with custom keys
Bare key refused
Moved and shadowed, one notice
Reset takes ⌘I back
Search "cmd k"
Dark, search "esc"
Dark, defaults
Also fixes main
apps/native/scripts/ios.ts came from #474 with lint errors. This PR clears them: it drops the non-null assertions and replaces an open dictionary type with satisfies. The other main breakage this branch used to fix (the desktop settings test, the toaster and native lint) has since been fixed on main. I took main's versions.
Known limits
On a Mac, ⌥+letter types a special character and Foldkit matches on event.key, so the existing ⌘⌥N-style defaults may not fire there. That was already true before this PR; the recorder stores what is actually typed and rejects dead keys.
Composer and message keys stay fixed. They would need the editor and the message list to read the keymap.
- core/lib/keybindings: a Schema-typed KeyCombo (canonical, Mod-portable),
and defineKeymap: actions, overrides, resolve/assign/unbind/reset with
conflict handling, and Foldkit bindings per subscription
- app-keymap replaces hotkey-registry and shortcut-catalog; composer and
message keys are listed as fixed
- overrides live at the root (per device, like sound settings) and reach the
layout and channel hotkeys, the Mod+/ dialog and the sidebar hints
- My Settings > Keybinds: record a key by pressing it, live modifiers,
search, reset per row and reset all, moved-key and shadowed-key notices

Summary
Key-combination and keymap engine apps/web-foldkit/src/core/lib/keybindings/*, apps/web-foldkit/src/core/lib/hotkeys/*, apps/web-foldkit/src/app/hotkeys.story.test.ts
Adds platform-aware key-combination parsing and formatting, a typed keymap with assignment and override operations, and the app action definitions. Removes the prior hotkey registry and shortcut catalog.
Override persistence and shared application state apps/web-foldkit/src/keybindings.ts, apps/web-foldkit/src/app/*, apps/web-foldkit/src/main.ts, apps/web-foldkit/src/page/contract.ts, apps/web-foldkit/src/page/out-message.ts, apps/web-foldkit/src/test/root-fixtures.ts, related tests
Loads and cleans stored overrides at startup. The root model exposes resolved keys and platform data. Requested overrides are saved, and a save failure produces an error toast.
Adds a settings page for searching, recording, assigning, unbinding, and resetting shortcuts. Registers the page route and adds a Keybinds sidebar entry.
Resolved keys in hotkeys and shortcut displays apps/web-foldkit/src/overlay/hotkeys.ts, apps/web-foldkit/src/overlay/modal/keyboard-shortcuts.ts, apps/web-foldkit/src/page/chat/channel/hotkeys.ts, apps/web-foldkit/src/page/chat/channel/subscription.ts, apps/web-foldkit/src/shell/*, related tests
Passes resolved keys to layout and channel hotkey handlers. Displays configured shortcuts in the keyboard shortcuts modal and sidebar hints.

Merge Risk: Moderate · previous review 1b3bc
Rebinding a shortcut to a plain letter can make typing in the message composer trigger the shortcut instead of entering the character. Some recorded chords are silently lost after a reload, and a few notices and labels are misleading. These affect an opt-in settings feature, but the typing interference should be fixed before merge.

Inline comments:
Review comments at @apps/web-foldkit/src/core/lib/keybindings/key-combo.ts:
- Around line 161-162: Update heldModifiers and parseCombo so chords containing
both primary and secondary modifiers are represented consistently and accepted
by stored-key validation; ensure the recorder cannot emit a KeyCombo that the
parser rejects.
- Line 94: Update canonicalKey so it validates the case-converted key’s length
before returning it, and uses a representation accepted by parseCombo when
conversion expands a printable key such as ß. Ensure comboOfPress cannot record
a KeyCombo that parseCombo rejects.
Review comments at @apps/web-foldkit/src/keybindings.ts:
- Line 12: Update StoredCodec and the readStored flow to decode stored overrides
entry by entry, discarding malformed values while retaining valid keybinds such
as search.open. Ensure a single invalid entry does not cause the entire stored
record to be rejected before clean can process it.
Review comments at @apps/web-foldkit/src/overlay/hotkeys.ts:
- Line 88: Update recorded in the keybinds flow to reject combos with no Mod,
Control, Meta, or Alt modifier when the key is printable, including Shift-only
combinations; show a warning notice and do not pass rejected combos to
appKeymap.assign. Preserve recording for non-printable keys and printable keys
with an allowed modifier.
Review comments at
@apps/web-foldkit/src/page/my-settings/keybinds/subscription.ts:
- Around line 25-32: In the keybinding recorder’s onKeyDown flow, confirm
whether the pinned Foldkit version prevents the browser default for matched Tab
presses. If it does, ensure saved Tab and Shift+Tab bindings cannot block focus
navigation by rejecting them in the recorder or keymap, or by disabling
preventDefault for bindings that use Tab; preserve normal focus movement.
Review comments at @apps/web-foldkit/src/page/my-settings/keybinds/update.ts:
- Around line 35-42: Update the notice-selection logic in the branch that checks
`shadows` so a shadow warning also reports any non-empty `displaced` actions,
including both outcomes in the notice; preserve the existing shadow-only and
displacement-only behavior when the other list is empty.
Review comments at @apps/web-foldkit/src/page/my-settings/keybinds/view.ts:
- Around line 141-142: Update the reset action identified by
Message.ClickedReset so its label matches the behavior when another action
currently claims the default key: either reclaim the default key for the reset
action or label the action as clearing its override. Preserve the existing reset
behavior unless implementing key reclamation safely requires changing it.

The desktop page's launch-at-login switch now reads isDesktop from Shared,
so its scene test can render the desktop view without module mocking.
Clears the conditional-spread and typeof lint errors in the toaster and
the native app.

- Search matches the names people type for keys: cmd, ctrl, option, shift, esc.
- The recorder refuses keys that type (J, Shift+K, Tab, Mac Option+letter), keeps
listening, and clean drops them from storage.
- Cmd+Ctrl+K records as Control+Meta+K; ß keeps its spelling.
- Stored overrides decode entry by entry.
- Reset takes the default key back from the action holding it, and says so.
- A moved key that also shadows a built-in reports both.
- Lint: no casts or open dictionaries in the keymap.

Takes main's own fixes for the desktop settings test and native storage,
drops the Shared.isDesktop this branch had added for them, and clears the
lint errors main's iOS script brought in.

At 390px the key column cut labels to "Sea…" stubs; below md the label
now spans the row, with the key and its buttons under it.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A separate agent tested the preview, given only this PR and the preview URL. It used headless Chrome, which reports itself as a Mac.
Everything listed in the brief passed:
Recording a key, with held modifiers shown live.
Typing keys are refused: j, Shift+K, Tab and Alt+J all get the warning and recording continues. Esc cancels and clears the warning.
Keys moved from another action, and keys that clash with a built-in. ⌘I on Search Messages reports both.
Reset takes the default key back. Reset all and Remove both work.
Search: "cmd k", "option", "esc", and a query that matches nothing.
After rebinding Open Inbox to ⌘J, pressing ⌘J opens the inbox and ⌘I no longer does.
The ⌘/ dialog shows the custom keys, and its "Customize keybinds" button opens the Keybinds page.
Settings survive a page reload.
Dark mode renders correctly.
No console errors.
The test found:
At 390px the key column cut labels down to stubs like "Sea…". Fixed in 0aef96f: on phones the label now gets its own line. I checked this on the redeployed preview.
The ⌘/ dialog leaves out Previous/Next Unread Mention. This is intended: until there is mention data they are aliases of the unread-channel steps (UNLISTED in keyboard-shortcuts.ts).
In 2 of 6 fresh loads the app stayed on "Loading…" because the /sync/mux WebSocket never opened. That's in the sync layer, which this PR doesn't touch. I'm handing it off as a follow-up.
Over the last 6 hours: 0 errors. Across all spans, p50 is 0 ms and p95 is 451 ms.
The slowest traces are POST /internal/dev/sign-in (4.2 s, one call) and POST /sync/warm (2.4–2.7 s). This PR changes neither.
Keybinds live entirely in the browser and are stored in localStorage, so the feature adds no RPCs and no new backend spans. Nothing in the traces needs a fix.
A default dropped in resolve (another action's override took it, with no
override of its own) now gets its Reset button too.

🟢 Confidence 10/10 · safe to merge. The earlier per-row Reset defect is fixed and pinned by a scene test; keymap uniqueness, entry cleaning and binding paths are read and tested. no findings · tests covered · risk low
Adds rebindable shortcuts: defineKeymap replaces the hotkey registry and catalog, overrides are stored per device and resolved into Shared.keys, and a Keybinds page records, resets and unbinds them. The earlier per-row Reset finding is fixed, and the McpQueryError issues are untouched by this diff. Safe to merge.
defineKeymap declares every action once and keeps rebindable keys unique in resolve
Layout and channel hotkeys bind the user's resolved keys as a subscription dependency
New /:org/my-settings/keybinds page records, refuses typing keys, resets and unbinds
The ⌘/ dialog lists current keys and links to the settings page
