Bindings

C- means Control; M- means reported Alt/Meta or a compatible Escape prefix. Spaces separate successive chords: C-x C-s means Control-x, then Control-s. In the default non-modal profile, editing is Emacs-like and ordinary printable text inserts directly. These editing bindings apply while an editing window owns focus; tree, prompt and inventory focus have their own keys. See Terminal input for reports and physical-terminal limits, and Focused prompts for argument and decision keys.

Every command below is also available as M-x followed by its exact name.

Tab or C-g returns from tree focus to editing. The tree is separate from editing-window cycling. In the buffer inventory, use arrows, Home/End, Return or C-g. In a decision, use a fresh y or n; query-replace also accepts q. Paste and Return do not grant affirmative consent.

See Commands for matching, completion and command history, Rectangles for block edges and Scope and defaults for retained text, history and file behavior.

Supplied layout and scrolling preferences

Startup configuration and library sessions supplied with an admitted snapshot use scroll.page_overlap to compute page distance from the current pane's content height. Usable panes advance at least one row even when overlap exceeds that height; suspended pages retain point. The default overlap remains two rows.

windows.split_ratio prefers the first child's share of the available extent after its one-cell separator. Both axes and native panel composition use the same ratio, clamped to each subtree's complete recursive minima. Small resizes suspend the entire editing projection and retain view identities and history. The default remains equal halves. Executable startup uses the admitted user configuration snapshot; source edits take effect after restarting.

Global Org entry keys include C-c a (agenda), C-c c (capture) and C-c l (store link). See Org bindings for those keys, all Org commands and the source, draft, agenda and calendar contexts.

Modal startup profile

Select editor.interaction_profile = "modal" and restart for Vim-like editing. Modal editing starts in Normal; unmatched text and bracketed paste do not insert there. Non-modal editing remains the default. Choose Modal Editing walks through profile selection, ordinary edits, shapes and shared command entry. The following state commands require the modal startup profile:

Insert and Replace use native editing and compatible modified factory bindings. Normal retains M-x, C-g, Meta commands and C-x/C-c command prefixes. State changes alone create no history; opening a line creates one ordinary undoable edit. Local prompts, completion, tree and Org maps keep their input priority. In a modal component, Escape or C-[ invokes the same cancellation as C-g after bounded Alt/Meta recognition; a second Escape cancels immediately.

Replace and semantic repetition

R overwrites corresponding complete graphemes on the current logical line. At EOL it inserts before the existing LF/CRLF separator; it never consumes that separator. Input that joins the preceding grapheme extends it without consuming another source grapheme. Escape/C-[ returns to Normal at the native point. Connected Insert/Replace input and a preceding change or line opening share one ordinary undo/redo group. Modified movement or another command ends that group.

Dot retains one semantic entry, operator, direct edit, indentation or paste. Entries i/a/I/A/o/O/R resolve their entry destination again. Operators resolve their motion/object against current source. An explicit dot count replaces the recorded count; it does not multiply it. Inserted payload is expanded within the native 64-MiB materialization bound before publication. Dot stays Normal and creates one ordinary native transaction.

A completed record is usable in another compatible editing pane or buffer. It checks current focus, source point, target and permissions before mutation. A failed repeat preserves the record. Undo/redo and copying text do not replace it. A retained paste keeps its admitted linear, linewise or logical-block payload, so a later copy cannot change the repeated insertion. Visual repetition retains its grapheme count, line count or block height/width, anchored at current point. For a Visual record, an explicit count replaces the linear/line count or block width; height remains fixed for a block.

At most 1,024 text bytes are retained, including the complete paste payload. Overflow never rejects an otherwise valid edit or exposes a truncated replay; it makes that change unavailable to dot. The native history budget still owns undo data. An empty insertion entry keeps the prior record. External source/view changes retire unfinished entries. Destructive entry controls that cannot be represented as the retained insertion, source-bound accepted-search ranges and unrelated native command workflows remain ordinary edits and retire repetition. Prompts, file consent and provider work are never replayed.

Commands, panes and completion

In Normal and all Visual shapes, : opens the same vertical selector as M-x. Use full canonical names such as :split-window-right, then answer any native argument prompt. Matching, history, completion, availability and dispatch are shared. Colon supplies no Ex aliases, ranges, pipelines or trailing arguments. Escape or C-g cancels the selector. Cancellation retains a compatible Visual shape and native anchor; changed source, point, mark or selected view retires that selection instead of restoring stale positions. Insert, Replace and argument prompts keep literal colon/slash text.

The Normal/Visual pane prefix is C-w: h/j/k/l focus left/down/up/right, s/v split below/right, c closes the selected pane, o keeps only that pane and = balances existing divisions. Directional focus requires orthogonal overlap and chooses the nearest pane, using native screen order for equal distances. No neighbor is a no-op. Balancing reserves separators, shares same-axis pane extents and preserves topology, focus, source and the startup ratio for later splits.

Automatic source suggestions run only in Insert/Replace. Manual completion-at-point remains available through the shared catalog. Popup arrows, C-p/C-n, Tab/C-i and Return retain native actions and colored kinds; source syntax colors remain visible. Checked primary edits and imports form one undo operation. Escape/C-g dismisses the popup locally before a later editing Escape returns to Normal. Incompatible state/view/source transitions retire list and resolve work; a late reply cannot reopen the popup or publish an edit. Insert C-o waits through an asynchronous completion workflow before resuming compatible insertion.

Tree, search, argument/decision prompts, inventories, bookmarks and local Org maps retain priority over editing grammar. Org source drafts use the immutable session profile with native local save and abort controls. Cancelling their command selector leaves the outer draft active. Bracketed paste remains literal text in entry states and never starts automatic completion.

Normal navigation

These bindings resolve one checked native destination. The same named commands are available through M-x in either startup profile. Emacs factory keys keep their existing visual-line and native word behavior.

The shared h/l, logical line, 0/^/$, w/b/e and gg/G endpoints follow the inspected Odra behavior. In particular e is an insertion boundary after the word. The WORD, ge/gE and counted forms above are additional rev requirements. w on one 🙂two reaches the emoji; e on one !!! two reaches the boundary after one, then after two on its next invocation.

A decimal count starts with 1–9; following zeroes extend it, while standalone 0 remains logical start. The ceiling is 4,294,967,295 and pending grammar is limited to 16 strokes. Targets retain one Unicode scalar (at most four UTF-8 bytes, within the 96-byte target bound). Counts scan the finite source or resolve a projected destination; they do not repeat UI commands. Overflow, missing counted finds/searches and stale observations preserve point and text. Idempotent start/first-text, delimiter, middle-row and alignment targets retain their single-target meaning with a count. Counts on unrelated commands reject. Explicit local digit mappings own the start of a command; digits following an admitted count extend that count. M-x cancels pending syntax and opens native command entry.

Escape/C-[, C-g, paste or a changed view/buffer/revision/point retire pending syntax. A retained find or search continuation is qualified by its native view and source revision. Search keeps literal smart-case matching, no wrapping and its native endpoint policy: forward lands after the match, backward at its start. C-g during search restores the complete origin view. A confirmed native C-s/C-r search also supplies n/N; prompts retain their own key meanings.

Normal operators and transfer

u and C-r invoke ordinary undo and redo. Prefix commands d/c/y/>/< require modal Normal; completed semantic edit requests and standalone edit commands use the same native range/edit owners. Pending operators never move point or edit. Escape/C-[, C-g, M-x, paste or changed native source/view/point retire them.

A count before an operator multiplies a count before its target, using checked u32 arithmetic. 2d3w resolves six word starts and publishes one deletion/undo. dd, cc, yy, >> and << select counted complete logical lines. A line change preserves an empty logical insertion slot; changing an empty valid interior can enter Insert without an edit. Failed or read-only changes stay in their prior state and preserve retained text. Copy remains usable read-only.

Character and word operator ranges use the native half-open interval between origin and destination. Thus dw on one two removes one , while de removes one and preserves its following separator. Shared f/F/t/T endpoints also retain this Odra range policy: dfX on abcXdef retains abc and leaves Xdef; the matched target is not implicitly added. Logical line/file/page, visible-row and paragraph motions select complete intersecting source lines. Missing counted finds or absent objects publish nothing. Alignment commands do not select an operator range.

Text objects are iw/aw, iW/aW, ip/ap, and inner/around parentheses, brackets, braces, single/double quotes and backticks. Both opening and closing pair spellings are aliases. Word objects select Unicode word/punctuation runs; WORD objects use whitespace-separated runs. Around word includes following whitespace, falling back to preceding whitespace at the end. Counts include following runs. Paragraphs select connected logical lines; around includes adjacent blank lines. Pair counts select successive enclosing balanced pairs; quote counts extend through successive quoted pairs on the logical line. Backslash escaping is respected without introducing a language parser.

Operator / and ? use the existing search prompt while point remains at its origin. Return applies the complete native search endpoint once; C-g cancels. Confirmed n/N and */# targets reuse the shared literal matcher and its existing smart-case, nonwrapping policy.

Linewise intent lives in the existing bounded kill ring. yy, linewise delete and change retain complete logical text, including its actual terminators. p/P normalize a linewise entry to the destination newline convention and add only necessary separators at EOF. Linear paste retains the native yank endpoint after inserted text; linewise paste places point at the inserted line start. Native yank/yank-pop and modal paste share entries; no modal register is added. Compatible consecutive kills of the same shape follow kill_ring.coalesce; a changed shape starts a fresh entry. Small x/X deletion and r replacement preserve the previous entry. Repeated paste/replacement composes one prepared edit; count-expanded text is bounded to 64 MiB before allocation. An ordinary single transfer keeps native admission. Indentation and multi-line joining are one prepared batch and one undo unit.

Jump history and Insert continuation

Each view retains at most 256 session-only locations. A split copies that bounded history and traversal index, then each view branches independently. Closing a view releases its handles. Explicit buffer/line, paragraph and page/screen destinations, accepted literal searches and native file visits record qualified origins and destinations. Ordinary h/j/k/l, word steps, search previews, drawing and jump traversal do not add entries. Counts clamp by retained entries, without replaying primitive commands. Starting backward traversal refreshes the newest current point; older entries keep their rebased locations. A new admitted jump after moving back removes that view's forward branch. Failed navigation/traversal changes no index.

Live locations follow native prepared edits, structural permutations and undo/redo. Deleting an anchor or joining away its grapheme boundary makes it unavailable; native undo can restore recorded outcomes. Traversal reuses an existing canonical buffer, including its unsaved text and read-only state. A closed file can reopen only when native file identity/content/permission observations, the exact retained position and up to 64 source scalars on each side still agree. Missing, replaced, changed, stale or non-file closed targets reject without guessing another position. Canonical rename carries closed paths, and save/close retains the live file identity. Paths have the native 4096-byte limit. Jump state never reads/writes bookmark names, collections or persistence; a later linear/selection edit remains ordinary history.

In Insert, C-o enters Normal for one semantic command. Counts, pending operators, find characters, command selection and argument/search prompts belong to that one lifetime. Compatible completion returns to Insert at the checked native point, including after an admitted edit. A different view/buffer or unrelated source revision retires insertion authority; explicit Visual entry keeps its new state. Queued input after deferred layout is interpreted after the command's state transition. Native prompts/completion keep their own Tab/C-i action; non-modal bindings and ordinary Insert Tab remain unchanged.

Visual selections

Visual states use the buffer's shared mark and the selected view's native point. Character includes the destination grapheme, including a whole LF/CRLF cluster; EOF itself contributes no extra text. Line includes complete logical source lines between both endpoints. Normal motions, counts, finds and shared literal search extend these selections. o uses exchange-point-and-mark to move the active end; repeated shape entry, Escape/C-[ or C-g cancels presentation.

d, c and y apply immediately to the selected character, line or block range. Delete and copy return to Normal; change enters Insert after successful native admission. All affected rows publish as one edit and one ordinary undo/redo step. Read-only or rejected targets preserve selection, prior transfer and history. Linear Visual >/< indents/outdents every intersecting logical line and returns to Normal. Text object entry is deliberately limited to linear Visual iw, aw, ip and ap; selecting an object sets Character endpoints around that object.

Visual Block counts each source grapheme once: a tab, wide character or joined cluster occupies one logical column. Both endpoint columns are included. Existing short rows contribute only their actual text, and line separators are excluded. Drawing projects the selected glyphs back to their actual display cells, including the full tab stop. non-modal rectangles retain display-cell edges and partial-tab padding. See rectangle coordinate and transfer policies.

Block transfer keeps native rectangle rows and logical-column intent in the shared transfer entry; its linear text view joins those rows with LF. p/P reinsert the block across logical rows, padding short destinations on the left and preserving LF/CRLF when extending EOF. Counts repeat each retained row horizontally within the existing 64-MiB expanded-text bound. Native yank-rectangle can use the same retained block. A later linear kill/copy selects linear paste again; native yank/yank-pop retain their linear span policy.

A different view of the same unchanged buffer can retain the shared selection. Switching buffers or publishing a source revision retires Visual authority. Pointer drag replaces the shared anchor while retaining the active shape; folding, wrapping and resize affect projection without making a separate range.

Native refs bindings

Configuration keymap contracts

The complete reference sample spells out every default target in all supported contexts, including local overlays and the state maps. Copy only desired overrides to preserve inherited stage distinctions; explicit mappings select their named action at the active owner.

keys.editor belongs to non-modal editing. Modal editing resolves keys.vim_normal or keys.vim_insert or keys.vim_replace over independent native factories; non-modal overrides do not leak into those states. Local Org editing/capture/source maps overlay the selected state. keys.vim_visual_character, keys.vim_visual_line and keys.vim_visual_block resolve independent state factories. M-x and C-g remain protected recovery in modal editing. Escape/C-[ is a state transition while modal editing owns input, so a standalone Escape cannot become a configurable command prefix there.

keys.completion supplies the active popup map; Escape remains literal cancel. keys.editor, keys.minibuffer, keys.tree and keys.git inherit independent complete maps. Omitted entries keep their built-in command. An exact normalized override replaces that chord, including an earlier spelling from another included layer. Removing/commenting an override restores the inherited entry. Two aliases for one chord in the same source reject, even when their target names agree. Empty strings, booleans, sentinel values and removal operations cannot unbind.

The candidate is validated before publication. Unknown or unavailable targets, invalid syntax, normalized duplicates and command/prefix collisions reject the whole candidate. For example, C-x cannot become an immediate command while C-x C-s remains a binding. Diagnostics identify the context, source key and involved sequences; source key/value locations are included when available. C-g is reserved for keyboard-quit in every context. A longer sequence that contains it is unreachable because it cancels pending prefixes, and rejects.

These contracts expose validated maps through Snapshot::keymaps(). Library input/session construction supplied with a snapshot dispatches keys.editor, keys.minibuffer, keys.tree and keys.git through their native Rust action owners. The focused prompt temporarily owns the minibuffer map even when an Org role or the tree retains workspace focus. Tree focus takes precedence over Org editing. No keymap edits the underlying document from a prompt.

Org context inheritance and role availability are described in Org keymap contracts.

Sequence vocabulary

A sequence has one through eight normalized chords separated by ASCII whitespace. Each chord is one printable scalar or a named key. Names are case-insensitive: RET/Return/Enter, TAB, SPC/Space, DEL/Backspace, Delete, ESC/Escape, NULL, Left, Right, Up, Down, Home, End, PageUp, PageDown, BackTab. Delete removes forward; DEL means Backspace.

C- adds Control and M-/A- adds Alt/Meta; modifiers can combine but cannot repeat. S- applies to named keys. For text, use the actual uppercase or shifted scalar, such as A or %, rather than S-a. Control letters fold to lowercase. S-TAB normalizes to BackTab. Named modified keys still require the terminal to report them; configuration cannot create an intercepted or absent event.

Escape plus a plain non-Escape chord normalizes to its Meta form: ESC j and M-j are one binding. A bare Escape is reserved for the existing finite Meta wait/expiry operation. ESC C-j cannot promise a distinct physical sequence. The terminal input contract describes timing and reports.

The conservative terminal vocabulary also unifies these aliases, including when an enhanced protocol can report some physical keys separately:

Alt remains present on Control aliases: C-M-h and M-DEL are one chord.

Editor defaults and availability

The editor inventory above and the Org inventory together list every compiled command, including global Org entry keys, with the aliases above. Editor targets are the compiled commands and admitted ai-<name> definitions used by M-x. A user alias does not install a new handler, shell expression or executable body. Prompt-only actions below are unavailable in the editor and M-x catalog.

A supplied editor mapping such as keys.editor.'M-j' = 'next-line' invokes the same handler as M-x next-line. Reassigning C-f replaces that chord while its unmodified Right alias remains inherited. The input owner copies the admitted map; it does not reread configuration during typing or drawing.

Custom prefixes consume their complete bounded sequence and display the pending normalized chords. A mismatch consumes the sequence and reports an error; no suffix leaks into document text. C-g, paste, prompt acquisition/acceptance and workspace ownership changes clear pending chords. Resize alone keeps an editing prefix. Escape expiry clears the whole pending sequence under the existing finite Meta policy. Unmapped printable input retains ordinary insertion.

Repetition follows the resolved action: single-chord editing/motion actions keep native repeat behavior, while prefix completions and session/prompt transitions require fresh presses. Releases do not dispatch. Every Enter alias requires a fresh prompt acceptance. Literal paste bypasses bindings, including printable characters assigned to commands, and publishes through the canonical edit owner. Read-only refusal, saved-state identity and undo use the same owners as M-x. Executable startup reads user configuration once; source edits require a restart.

Minibuffer defaults and availability

These defaults describe the existing stage owners. A target is admitted only where its stage supports it; it never edits the underlying document. Decisions retain fresh y/n consent (query-replace also accepts q), and Return/paste cannot affirm a decision. Inventory keeps its existing selection owner.

The six minibuffer-* targets name existing Rust prompt actions in the common binding catalog. They are context-only actions. Minibuffer configuration admits exactly these targets plus the text-motion, deletion, search and cancel command identities in this table. An unrelated command such as save-buffer rejects.

A supplied alias such as keys.minibuffer.'M-a' = 'minibuffer-accept' accepts through the active owner: M-x records its command history, find-file opens the selected or typed file, descends into directories or retains failed drafts, and search accepts its current result. Completion aliases retain the table's stage behavior, including literal tabs in search/replacement. Custom text-motion/deletion aliases use the same grapheme cursor and prompt limit. Explicit previous/next aliases select the corresponding command candidate or inventory item; history aliases recall commands only in M-x; inherited keys keep the stage distinctions in the table.

Decision stages retain fixed fresh y/n answers (query-replace also accepts q). Mapped acceptance, completion and editing cannot supply consent. Additional keyboard-quit aliases may be sequences; their mismatched suffix is consumed, so a y suffix cannot affirm a pending decision. Reserved C-g always cancels. Accept aliases, completed prefixes and transitions require fresh presses; releases and held acceptance keys cannot submit a newly acquired argument.

Tree defaults and availability

Tree configuration admits the tree command catalog, Git Status/processes, prepared clone/init commands, find-file, cancel, exit, M-x and return-to-editing, plus the existing navigation aliases previous-line, next-line, backward-char, forward-char and newline. File mutation commands retain their prompts and explicit confirmation; a binding cannot supply consent.

Supplied tree bindings dispatch only while the tree owns workspace focus and no prompt is active. Exact reassignment preserves independent inherited aliases: changing C-n does not change Down. Navigation aliases can repeat; open, refresh, mutation and workspace transitions require fresh presses. Pending prefixes are cleared by prompt acquisition, cancellation and workspace changes. Tree text and paste never enter the visiting buffer while tree focus is retained.

Git commit defaults and availability

keys.git_commit inherits editor text editing for messages and prepared argument drafts in both startup profiles. Prepared argument drafts require a literal JSON array; output drafts require an arguments array and an explicit output path in one JSON object. Both use two separate submissions: checked review, then execution. Normal composition begins with c in Status. Plain Return inserts a newline; submission requires C-Enter (a distinguishable host event) or C-c C-c. C-g and C-c C-k retain cancelled commit/tag session drafts. Prepared argument cancellation restores the source without executing the plan. Composer text is separate from source buffers and filesystem publication.

Git history defaults and availability

keys.git_history owns History input in both profiles. Prompts still use keys.minibuffer. Pointer selection requires the currently painted observation and viewport. q returns from revision detail to History, then Status, preserving selection and source ownership.

Git inspection defaults and availability

keys.git_inspect owns revision, reflog, blame and historical-file navigation in both profiles. Return opens the selected exact parent, revision or historical blob. v inspects a full revision; it never treats a reflog selector as an argument. git-visit-file visits current source through its canonical native owner.

Git defaults and availability

keys.git applies to native Git navigation in both startup profiles. It keeps source text read-only and retains the original windows, tree and terminal owners. User mappings replace individual chords; C-g remains reserved for native cancellation. Prompts use keys.minibuffer.

k or x d restores one tracked unstaged whole path from its captured index entry after y/n confirmation; C-g cancels and Return does not imply yes. Modified visiting buffers, including canonical aliases, reject the request. Changing the file or source context invalidates an open confirmation. Hunk and marked-group discard, untracked deletion and gitlink replacement are unsupported. Completed file changes use the existing automatic/ask reload policy; the command never saves or directly replaces a source buffer.

Marks retain complete comparison identities independently of navigation. Use * or x m to mark, - or x u to remove a selected mark, and 0 or x c to clear all marks. At most 256 targets are retained within shared Git memory admission. When marks exist, s/u checks the entire group: whole paths must support one direction; text hunks must be nonoverlapping units from one exact path/layer comparison. Mixed, duplicate, stale or unsupported groups fail before changing the index. Refresh does not retarget old marks; clear or unmark them explicitly.

Only nonempty groups appear, in Unmerged, Untracked, Unstaged and Staged order. Selection follows an exact path and group across refresh. Mouse selection requires the current painted generation, comparison, expansion and dimensions. Tab toggles a group, path comparison or hunk body; Return visits the current source, or inspects the selected operation in Processes. Named git-diff opens read-only patch detail. q returns one presentation level; q, C-g or Escape dismisses its action menu. Returning from Status keeps started Git work owned by the editor.

The read-only bookmark workspace uses keys.bookmark_list: arrows, C-n/C-p and n/p move rows; Return visits; d/u mark or unmark and advance; x deletes marked records; q/C-g returns and discards unexecuted marks. M-x opens the normal command prompt and C-x o changes panes. These local keys do not edit source text.

Amend and fixup use the native command catalog. Their first explicit composer submission opens exact review; a second C-Enter or C-c C-c accepts. q or C-g in review retains the draft.

Git refs defaults and availability

keys.git_refs owns read-only refs, explicit fetch and reviewed local branch/tag actions in both profiles. Prompts retain keys.minibuffer. n creates a branch; p reviews one upstream push. * and - retain or clear its independent exact source mark. Up/Down and C-p/C-n navigate. Annotated tag text uses the retained native message owner and keys.git_commit; its review uses the explicit submit aliases below.

Git sequence defaults and availability

keys.git_sequence owns Git Operation navigation and checked sequence controls in both profiles. Up/Down or C-p/C-n selects exact conflict paths; Return opens their read-only Base/Current/Applied stages. Conflict Return visits the editable result. Pointer selection binds the painted exact conflict path. q returns to Status without aborting Git; g refreshes actual Git state. The view identifies busy controls until owned repository work finishes. Each control refreshes the actual family, original lineage, metadata, index and worktree before opening exact review. Continue requires saved staged resolutions. y, C-Enter or C-c C-c confirms; Return does not. n or C-g cancels the review. Cherry-pick/revert controls retain the exact reviewed order and mainlines. They require the retained original lineage as well as matching actual Git metadata; missing lineage is unavailable rather than guessed from a label. Abort explicitly restores the original context, including a completed prefix. Generic controls dispatch these compatible families by their native names. Manual bisect uses ? for explicit bad/good boundaries and G/B/\| for separate current-candidate classifications. No build or test command runs. Full boundary and candidate IDs remain reviewable. ~ restores the checked original branch and object. Skipped-candidate ambiguity does not identify a unique first bad commit.

Git conflict defaults and availability

keys.git_conflict owns index-side inspection and checked resolution in both profiles. 1/2/3 reviews Base/Current/Applied replacement without staging. K reviews exact deletion from disk and index; x reviews staging saved text or absence. Confirm with y, C-Enter or C-c C-c; cancel with n or C-g. Unsaved result buffers, changed saved bytes/stages and unsupported or partial sides reject. Continuing remains separate. H captures roles and saved/unsaved source through the existing optional AI owner with input-only permissions. Its read-only answer cannot edit, stage or continue; changed source marks it historical. Unavailable AI or reached input limits leave manual inspection and resolution available. Return visits the canonical editable result through the existing file owner; q returns to Operation without changing Git state. g refreshes actual sequence state, requiring a fresh inspection before any later resolution action.

Git stash defaults and availability

keys.git_stash owns the native Stashes list in both profiles. Status z z or z l opens it. Selection retains full object identity; refresh never substitutes an entry that inherited an ordinal. Return or v toggles bounded read-only patch detail. All changing actions prepare exact saved-state review and require y, C-Enter or C-c C-c; Return alone does not accept. n and C-g cancel.

Create includes saved tracked and untracked files, excluding ignored files. Apply/pop/branch require a checked clean saved index and worktree. Affected unsaved visiting sources reject without saving; unrelated unsaved text stays owned. Pop and branch restore the full object before a separately checked drop. Conflicts retain the stash and expose actual unmerged paths through git-conflicts; no sequence continuation or rollback is inferred. Reached caps and uncertain effects remain visible. Existing file automatic/ask reload policy applies.

Git worktree defaults and availability

keys.git_worktree owns Worktrees in both profiles. Status Z Z or Z l opens it. Selection retains exact operating-system path bytes and full HEAD identity; Return or Tab toggles wrapped details, including per-worktree and common Git directories, lock reasons and prune state. v opens that worktree's checked Git Status context while retaining source buffers and windows. q returns to Status.

Create prompts for an absent path and a new local branch at the observed HEAD. All changing actions show exact paths and object identities and require y, C-Enter or C-c C-c; Return alone does not accept. n and C-g cancel. Lock retains its explicit one-line reason. Prune covers the complete set of missing unlocked records and refuses reappeared paths. Remove requires a clean saved tree, including untracked and ignored files, and refuses main/current, locked or active-sequence targets. Retained visiting buffers, file-tree roots and native process/language-server owners protect their worktrees. Actions serialize common repository storage and recheck saved state and full registry facts before Git; no force, implicit save, automatic process stop or rollback is supplied.
