[FEATURE] Persist vim mode across sessions via settings.json
Resolved 💬 3 comments Opened Mar 8, 2026 by pietvanzoen Closed Apr 7, 2026
Feature request
/vim enables vim keybindings for the current session, but there's no way to persist this across sessions. The setting doesn't survive restart — you have to run /vim every time.
Expected behavior
A settings.json field (e.g. "vimMode": true) that enables vim mode by default for all sessions.
Current workaround
Manually running /vim at the start of each session.
Context
/config shows a vim mode toggle but it only applies to the current session. The settings.json schema doesn't include a vim mode field, so there's no file-based way to persist it.
