[BUG] Alt+M keyboard shortcut not working for plan mode

Resolved 💬 3 comments Opened Jan 23, 2026 by ThatDragonOverThere Closed Feb 28, 2026

Description

The Alt+M keyboard shortcut to enter plan mode is not working. User has to manually type /plan instead.

Expected Behavior

Alt+M should open plan mode (as documented in keyboard shortcuts).

Actual Behavior

Alt+M does nothing. User must use /plan command as workaround.

Environment

  • Claude Code CLI on Windows (MSYS/Git Bash)
  • Same session experiencing other UI bugs (#20171, #19888)

Notes

May be related to the UI state issues reported in #20171 (phantom generating state) - possible keyboard event handling problem.
