Keyboard shortcuts

Atlas is built keyboard-first. Five shortcuts cover most navigation; another fifteen unlock the rest. This page lists them by scope.

TIP

Shortcuts are shipped via the global keymap registry; verified-active shortcuts are listed here. Anything labeled planned is on the roadmap and not yet wired in.

Global

Keys	Action
/ or Ctrl+K	Focus the command bar
Esc	Dismiss the active modal, drawer, or detail card
Ctrl+Shift+P	Open the panel switcher
?	Show this shortcut list inline
g then g	Jump to globe
g then m	Jump to market panel
g then w	Jump to watchlist
g then n	Jump to news
g then d	Jump to market dashboards
g then a	Jump to AI chat
g then s	Jump to security dashboard for the focused symbol

The g chord is "go to" — works like Gmail / GitHub.

Tips

• The g chord (g then a letter) is the fastest way around — train it once and it becomes muscle memory.
• Most modals close on Esc. If a modal won't close, it's because of an unsaved change — the form will tell you.
• The ? shortcut shows this list as an inline overlay so you don't have to leave the workspace to look something up.
