What's Wrong?

Description

The /resume command's project picker uses Ctrl+V as a keyboard shortcut for "preview", which conflicts with Windows' system paste shortcut. When attempting to paste text into the search box, Ctrl+V instead triggers the preview function (or attempts to), making it impossible to paste.

Expected Behavior

Users should be able to either:

1. Rebind the preview shortcut to a different key (e.g., Alt+V) using ~/.claude/keybindings.json, OR
2. Have a non-conflicting default shortcut that doesn't override system paste

Current Behavior

• The project picker displays: Ctrl+V to preview in its shortcut hints
• Pressing Ctrl+V triggers preview instead of pasting clipboard content
• Attempting to rebind this shortcut in keybindings.json has no effect

What I Tried

I attempted to rebind Ctrl+V using the following contexts in ~/.claude/keybindings.json:

• Select
• Resume
• Projects
• ProjectPicker

None of these worked, suggesting either:

1. The actual context name is not documented
2. This particular UI doesn't respect keybindings configuration
3. The shortcut is hardcoded and not rebindable

Requested Solution

Please either:

1. Document the correct context name for the /resume project picker so users can rebind shortcuts
2. Change the default shortcut from Ctrl+V to something non-conflicting (e.g., Alt+V, Ctrl+P)
3. Make this shortcut rebindable if it currently isn't

Environment

• OS: Windows
• Claude Code version: [your version]
• Context: /resume project picker

Additional Context

Other shortcuts in the same view that work fine:

• Ctrl+A to show all projects
• Ctrl+B to toggle branch
• Ctrl+R to rename
• Type to search
• Esc to cancel

Only Ctrl+V conflicts with the Windows system paste shortcut.

What Should Happen?

Users should be able to either:

1. Rebind the preview shortcut to a different key (e.g., Alt+V) using ~/.claude/keybindings.json, OR
2. Have a non-conflicting default shortcut that doesn't override system paste
