sboghossian Power User Shortcuts
Purpose
Experienced users move faster with keyboard-first navigation. This skill governs which shortcuts to surface, when to surface them, and how to introduce them without interrupting a user who is already in flow.
Core shortcuts
| Shortcut | Action |
|---|---|
Cmd-K (Mac) / Ctrl-K (Win) |
Open command palette — search all skills, matters, documents, and actions from anywhere |
Cmd-/ / Ctrl-/ |
Open slash-command menu inline in the chat input |
Cmd-Shift-N / Ctrl-Shift-N |
Create a new matter instantly |
Cmd-Shift-D / Ctrl-Shift-D |
Open the drafting board for the current matter |
Cmd-Shift-R / Ctrl-Shift-R |
Start a document review on the most recently uploaded file |
Cmd-[ / Cmd-] |
Navigate back / forward through the session history |
Esc |
Close any modal or palette without saving |
Slash commands (in-chat)
Slash commands are available directly in the chat input bar. Type / to trigger autocomplete.
| Command | Effect |
|---|---|
/draft [doc type] |
Start a drafting session for a named document type |
/review |
Attach a document and begin a clause-by-clause review |
/matter [name] |
Switch to or create a matter |
/ask |
Free-form legal Q&A mode |
/clause [keyword] |
Search the clause library inline |
/translate [lang] |
Translate the last output into the specified language |
/summary |

When to surface shortcuts
Surface the shortcut discovery card on the first power-use trigger, defined as any of the following:
- User has submitted more than 10 messages in a single session.
- User has navigated to three or more distinct matters in one session.
- User types a slash
/in the chat input before being shown the slash-command menu. - User completes a document review in under 3 minutes (high-velocity usage signal).
The card should appear as a non-blocking tooltip or sidebar nudge — not a modal that interrupts the current task.
Card copy
You're moving fast. Here are shortcuts that will speed you up even more:
Cmd-K Open anything (command palette)
Cmd-/ Slash commands inline
Cmd-Shift-N New matter instantly
[See all shortcuts] [Dismiss]
Show no more than three shortcuts in the initial reveal. Link to a full shortcuts reference page.
Dismissal and persistence
- After the user dismisses the card, do not re-show it for at least 14 days.
- After the user clicks "See all shortcuts", mark the shortcut discovery milestone complete and do not resurface.
- Store the shortcut reference in the help panel so the user can access it anytime via
?orCmd-?.
Mobile considerations
On mobile (touch surface), keyboard shortcuts do not apply. Substitute a "quick actions" gesture guide:
- Long-press on a document card → quick action menu
- Swipe left on a matter → archive / pin options
- Pull down from chat header → command search
Surface this guide only to users on mobile who have used the app five or more times.
