Command Palette

The Command Palette is Vast’s fastest control surface. Open it with Ctrl/Cmd+K.

It searches across actions, tabs, workspaces, bookmarks, history, notes, settings, and supported extension contributions.

Examples include:

  • create, close, duplicate, or reopen a tab;
  • toggle split view;
  • switch workspace;
  • open Settings;
  • open Notes;
  • save a page to Reading List;
  • add a bookmark;
  • copy the current URL or title;
  • print;
  • open Extensions;
  • open Smart Unload;
  • open Session Timeline;
  • clear History;
  • open Labs tools when available.

The palette supports fuzzy matching rather than exact-only search. Recent and favorite commands can surface faster over time.

Advanced settings can hide or show Vast internal pages in the palette. Labs-gated pages remain unavailable until their corresponding feature is enabled.
