|
| :::note |
| On Windows, the defaults for `input_undo` and `terminal_suspend` are different: |
|
|
| - `input_undo` defaults to `ctrl+z,ctrl+-,super+z` when it is not explicitly configured. The `ctrl+z` binding is added because Windows terminals do not support POSIX suspend. |
| - `terminal_suspend` is forced to `none` because native Windows terminals do not support POSIX suspend. |

|
|
| OpenCode uses a `leader` key for many keybinds. This avoids conflicts in your terminal. |
|
|
| By default, `ctrl+x` is the leader key and many actions require you to first press the leader key and then the shortcut. For example, to start a new session you first press `ctrl+x` and then press `n`. |
|
|
| You don't need to use a leader key for your keybinds but we recommend doing so. |
|
|
| Some navigation keybinds intentionally do not use the leader key by default. For subagent sessions, the defaults are `session_child_first` = `<leader>down`, `session_child_cycle` = `right`, `session_child_cycle_reverse` = `left`, and `session_parent` = `up`. |
|
|
| `leader_timeout` controls how long OpenCode waits for the next key after the leader key. It defaults to `2000` milliseconds. |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
|
| A string can contain one shortcut or multiple comma-separated shortcuts. You can also use an array for multiple shortcuts. |
|
|
| For advanced cases, use an object with `key`, `event`, `preventDefault`, or `fallthrough`. |
|
|
| ```json title="tui.json" |
| { |
| "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/tui.json", |
| "keybinds": { |
| "messages_copy": ["<leader>y", "ctrl+shift+c"], |
| "input_paste": { |
| "key": "ctrl+v", |
| "preventDefault": false |
| } |
| } |
| } |
| ``` |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
|
| You can disable a keybind by adding the key to `tui.json` with a value of `"none"` or `false`. |
|
|
| ```json title="tui.json" |
| { |
| "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/tui.json", |
| "keybinds": { |
| "session_compact": "none" |
| } |
| } |
| ``` |

|
| The OpenCode desktop app prompt input supports common Readline/Emacs-style shortcuts for editing text. These are built-in and currently not configurable via `opencode.json`. |
|
|
| | Shortcut | Action | |
| | |
| | `ctrl+a` | Move to start of current line | |
| | `ctrl+e` | Move to end of current line | |
| | `ctrl+b` | Move cursor back one character | |
| | `ctrl+f` | Move cursor forward one character | |
| | `alt+b` | Move cursor back one word | |
| | `alt+f` | Move cursor forward one word | |
| | `ctrl+d` | Delete character under cursor | |
| | `ctrl+k` | Kill to end of line | |
| | `ctrl+u` | Kill to start of line | |
| | `ctrl+w` | Kill previous word | |
| | `alt+d` | Kill next word | |
| | `ctrl+t` | Transpose characters | |
| | `ctrl+g` | Cancel popovers / abort running response | |
|

|
| Some terminals don't send modifier keys with Enter by default. You may need to configure your terminal to send `Shift+Enter` as an escape sequence. |
|
|
| |
|
|
| Open your `settings.json` at: |
|
|
| ``` |
| %LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Microsoft.WindowsTerminal_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\settings.json |
| ``` |
|
|
| Add this to the root-level `actions` array: |
|
|
| ```json |
| "actions": [ |
| { |
| "command": { |
| "action": "sendInput", |
| "input": "\u001b[13;2u" |
| }, |
| "id": "User.sendInput.ShiftEnterCustom" |
| } |
| ] |
| ``` |
|
|
| Add this to the root-level `keybindings` array: |
|
|
| ```json |
| "keybindings": [ |
| { |
| "keys": "shift+enter", |
| "id": "User.sendInput.ShiftEnterCustom" |
| } |
| ] |
| ``` |
|
|
| Save the file and restart Windows Terminal or open a new tab. |
