The Command palette [[Core plugins|plugin]] lets you run any command directly from your keyboard. It also lets you explore all the available commands and their [[Hotkeys|keyboard shortcuts]]. To run a command from the Command palette: 1. Press `Ctrl+P` (or `Cmd+P` on macOS) to open the Command palette. You can also open it from the [[Ribbon]] with Command palette icon ( ![[lucide-terminal.svg#icon]] ). 2. Type the name of the command you want to run. 3. Navigate to the command using the arrow keys. 4. Press `Enter`. > [!tip] > The Command palette supports _fuzzy matching_, allowing you to search for commands even if you don't know their exact names. For example, typing "scf" will find the **S**ave **c**urrent **f**ile command. As of **version 1.8.3**, recently used commands appear at the top of the Command palette. However, these recently used commands are still subject to the _fuzzy matching_ algorithm. When you start filtering, shorter commands will be prioritized over recently used ones. ## Pinned commands You can pin frequently used commands at the top of the Command palette to quickly access them without having to type their name. > [!tip] > If you want to quickly run frequently used commands, you can also [[Hotkeys#Setting hotkeys|set hotkeys]] for them. ### Pin a command 1.
