Command Palette

The command palette (Cmd + K / Ctrl + K) provides a searchable interface for:
  • Page navigation — type a page name to navigate directly.
  • Record search — search for reports, trips, aircraft, or people by identifier or keyword.
  • Actions — trigger common actions such as creating a new report or switching tenants.
  • Settings — access settings pages.
Results are ranked by relevance and recency. Recent items appear at the top when the palette is first opened.

Notes

  • Navigation shortcuts (the G sequences) are disabled when the cursor is inside a text input, textarea, or editable field.
  • Shortcuts are disabled when a modal dialog is open, except for Escape to close the modal.
  • All shortcuts work regardless of the current sidebar state (expanded or collapsed).
