The command bar

The command bar is one box for open tabs, history, actions and the developer sites you open fifty times a day. Open it with:

Keys	What it does
⌘T	Opens empty. Enter opens the result in a new Today tab.
⌘L	Starts with the current tab’s URL selected. Enter loads the result in the current tab. You can also click the URL bar.
⌃⇧=	Opens the result in split view next to the current tab. Picking an open tab splits with it.

Move with ↑ and ↓, run the selected row with Enter, and close with Esc.

URLs and search

• Anything with a scheme (https://, about:, file: and so on) opens as is.
• localhost, 127.0.0.1 and [::1], with or without a port and path, get http://.
• Text that looks like a domain, such as example.com/docs, gets https://.
• Anything else is searched with your search engine: Google (the default), DuckDuckGo, Bing, Brave Search, Kagi or Ecosia. Change it in Settings › General.

Developer commands

Type a keyword, a space and what you’re looking for. Every command needs that last part.

You type	Flecha opens
gh vercel/next.js	The repository on GitHub
gh 482 or gh #482	Pull request or issue 482 in the repository of the current tab
gh any words	A GitHub search
npm zod	The package page on npm (one word)
npm date picker	An npm search (several words)
mdn structuredClone	A search on MDN Web Docs
caniuse :has	A search on Can I use
so docker volume permissions	A search on Stack Overflow

Tip

gh 482 reads the repository from the tab you’re on, so it works from any page of that repository on github.com. GitHub sends /pull/482 to the issue when 482 is an issue. On any other site, gh 482 searches GitHub instead.

Jump to another environment

Type env on a page whose origin is part of a project in Settings › Environments. The command bar lists Switch to for each of the project’s other environments, keeping the path, query and hash. ⌥⌘E does the same in one key, going to the next environment in order.

To set up a project, go to Settings › Environments › Add Project and list one environment per line, as label origin:

local http://localhost:3000
staging https://staging.example.com
prod https://example.com

The address bar then shows the label as a badge: green for local, amber for staging-like names such as staging, preview or qa, and red for everything else.

Edit this site’s Boost

Type boost to get Edit boost script for the current site (TypeScript) and Edit boost styles for it (CSS, applied live as you save). ⌥⌘B goes straight to the editor.

Decode JWTs and timestamps

Paste one of these and the command bar decodes it in place. Nothing leaves your Mac.

• JSON Web Token: anything in three dot-separated parts starting with eyJ. The row shows the algorithm, the subject and when it expires or expired, and the selected row shows the decoded header and payload. Enter copies them as JSON. The signature is not verified.
• Unix timestamp: exactly 10 digits (seconds) or 13 digits (milliseconds), such as 1761140000. The row shows the date in your time zone and how long ago or from now it is. Enter copies it as an ISO 8601 date in UTC.

Actions

Type at least two letters of an action’s name to run it from the bar:

New Space, Edit Space, New Flechinha Window, Settings, Responsive View, Toggle Sidebar, Clear Today Tabs, Show Downloads and Open Boosts Folder.

What it searches

Results come in groups, in this order:

1. Open or Search for what you typed.
2. Developer: the commands above.
3. Actions.
4. Tabs: open tabs in every Space, plus favorites and pinned tabs that aren’t loaded, most recently used first.
5. History: pages you’ve visited, including history imported from other browsers.
6. Archive: Today tabs that archived themselves.

Imported bookmarks become pinned tabs, so they show up under Tabs.
