What
Some Claude Code shortcuts use the Meta key, which on a Mac keyboard usually means the Option key once your terminal is set to treat it that way. Claude Code has a tip for this case.
That tip now carries a short hint line. Depending on how your terminal is set up, it reads either "set Option as Meta to use …" or "/terminal-setup to use …". /terminal-setup is a Claude Code command that adjusts your terminal settings.
Why
If you press a Meta shortcut before your terminal is set up for it, the hint tells you what to do next.
