Enhanced Keyboard Navigation#

The interactive selection system now supports more keyboard shortcuts for improved navigation:

  • Vim-style navigation: Use j to move down and k to move up through options (when not holding Ctrl or Shift)
  • Emacs-style navigation: Use Ctrl+n to move down and Ctrl+p to move up through options
  • Traditional arrow keys: Continue to work as before (↑/↓)

These new shortcuts work in any interactive selection menu throughout the CLI, making navigation faster for users familiar with vim or emacs keybindings.

Anthropic’s official release notes

Published verbatim by Anthropic for v0.2.61. Text is unmodified from the upstream changelog. Everything else on this page came out of the bundle instead, which is why the two lists don't match.

  • Navigate menus with vim-style keys (j/k) or bash/emacs shortcuts (Ctrl+n/p) for faster interaction
  • Enhanced image detection for more reliable clipboard paste functionality
  • Fixed an issue where ESC key could crash the conversation history selector
System prompt

The system prompt was not captured for this release, so this page cannot say whether it moved.
