claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix Keybinding override for "enter" does not suppress default "chat:submit" action [1 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

The issue can be resolved by explicitly setting the chat:submit action to a different keybinding or modifying the existing configuration to prevent both actions from firing on Enter key press.

Guidance

• Review the keybindings configuration to ensure that the enter key is not implicitly bound to chat:submit in addition to chat:newline.
• Consider adding an explicit null or empty binding for chat:submit when enter is pressed to suppress the default submit action.
• Verify that the keybindings configuration is correctly loaded and applied by checking the Claude Code documentation for any specific requirements or restrictions.
• Test the modified keybindings configuration to ensure that the expected behavior is achieved, with Enter inserting a newline only and Ctrl+Enter submitting the message.

Example

{
  "bindings": [
    {
      "context": "Chat",
      "bindings": {
        "enter": "chat:newline",
        "ctrl+enter": "chat:submit",
        "enter+shift": null // or an empty string to suppress default action
      }
    }
  ]
}

Note: The example above is speculative and may not be a valid solution, as the actual keybindings configuration syntax and behavior are not fully understood from the provided issue description.

Notes

The provided issue description lacks information about the underlying keybindings configuration syntax and behavior, which may limit the effectiveness of the suggested solutions. Additionally, the example code snippet is speculative and may not be a valid solution.

Recommendation

Apply a workaround by modifying the keybindings configuration to explicitly suppress the default chat:submit action when the enter key is pressed. This approach allows for a targeted fix without relying on implicit assumptions about the underlying configuration syntax and behavior.
