Hotkeys
Hotkeys let you move quickly through the assembly workshop, the codex, and site-wide panels. Every binding can be customized and is stored locally.
Entry Point
Visit Settings → Hotkeys (/setting/hotkeys). Bindings are grouped into Assembly Workshop, Codex, and Global.

Trigger Modes

- Hold: stays active while the key is held and stops when released. Best for continuous archive or confirm actions.
Each action can switch trigger mode individually from the list.

Persistence
Hotkey bindings are stored in the current browser's local storage under user.hotkeys.bindings and are not synced with your account. Clearing browser data or switching devices resets them.
