Keyboard Shortcuts
Use Arivu's command-palette, Library, graph, menu, tab, and dialog keyboard controls.
Arivu relies on familiar browser controls and a discoverable set of application shortcuts. Press ? outside a form field to open the complete in-app guide. Single-key commands stay disabled while you type in a form or use a dialog.

The old Inbox triage shortcuts are retired along with planning controls.
Menus, Tabs, and Graph
