Claude Keyboard shortcuts

Claude is Anthropic's AI assistant, used through the claude.ai web app and the Claude desktop apps for Mac and Windows. Its built-in keyboard shortcuts (opened with the shortcuts dialog) speed up everyday chat work: starting a fresh conversation, searching history, sending prompts, and jumping between the input and the sidebar without reaching for the mouse.
