What
The footer at the bottom of the Claude Code screen shows hints for opening tasks, memories and artifacts. Those hints always said "enter". They now show whatever key is bound to the footer:openSelected action, which is still "enter" by default. If you remove every key from that action, the hints are hidden.
Why
If you have changed this key in your keybindings, the footer now shows the key that actually works.
