Keyboard Bindings and Shortcuts

AGR is built to be driven from the keyboard, and every shortcut is customizable. This page lists the default shortcuts and explains how to change them.

Ctrl and Cmd

Throughout AGR, the main modifier key is written as Shortcut. It maps to Ctrl on Linux and Windows, and to Cmd on macOS. So "Shortcut+Enter" means Ctrl+Enter on Linux and Windows, and Cmd+Enter on a Mac. The tables below use Ctrl for short.

Presets

AGR groups shortcuts into presets, so you can start from a familiar editor's keys. The available presets are:

IntelliJ - the default.
AGR - AGR's own baseline.
VS Code
Vim
Emacs

A preset only changes the keys where that editor differs; everything else keeps AGR's baseline. Choose a preset in the Key Bindings dialog (below).

Changing Shortcuts

Open the editor from Help > Key Bindings. In the dialog you can:

Browse every action, grouped by category.
Click an action and press a new key combination to rebind it. If the combination is already used by another action in the same context, AGR warns you.
Pick a preset to load a whole set at once.
Import or export a key map to share it or back it up.
Reset to return to the defaults.

Your bindings are saved to ~/.agr/keybindings.yaml, and a change takes effect immediately - no restart.
