Command palette

One search finds actions and open tabs across your windows. Use it to open Settings, create a group, or get back to a project’s shell.

Press Cmd+Shift+P on macOS or Ctrl+Shift+K on Linux/Windows. You can also choose Command palette from the bottom ⋯ menu.

Type a few words, use Up/Down to select a result, and press Enter. Press Escape to close the palette and return to where you were.

Try these searches:

  • new group creates a group and its first terminal.
  • settings opens preferences, where you can search for a setting.
  • reopen brings back a recently closed tab or group with fresh shells.
  • focus sidebar starts keyboard navigation.

The reopen action appears when there is something to restore. Results show assigned shortcuts, including your custom bindings.

Search by tab name, group path, or working directory. Combine words to narrow the results: atlas tests can find a Tests tab inside your Atlas project. Each result shows its window, group, and reported directory. Selecting a tab in another window brings that window forward.

For tab results only, press Cmd+Shift+L on macOS or Ctrl+Shift+L on Linux/Windows, or choose Switch tab across windows from the bottom ⋯ menu.

The tab switcher finding terminals by project and directory

Clear the query to browse all entries again. Descriptive tab names and project groups make results easier to recognize.
