Palette & keys
⌘K goes anywhere and finds anything; k9s refugees can turn on colon navigation and keep their muscle memory.
Moonway is built to be driven from the keyboard, and the palette is the whole interface behind one keystroke.
The palette
⌘K (Ctrl+K elsewhere) opens it. One input does four jobs:
- Go to — every page and every resource kind: type
chefor Checks,depfor Deployments. - Switch cluster — contexts by name, with the server shown so lookalikes don't fool you.
- Switch namespace — including back to all namespaces.
- Find any object — two characters or more searches the whole cache, every kind, cluster-wide. Pick a hit and the inspector opens on it. No page loads, no API calls — it's a memory search, so it's instant.

Colon navigation, for k9s hands
Settings → Keyboard → k9s-style colon navigation makes a bare : open
the palette in command mode — :pods, :deploy, :checks — exactly the
reflex k9s trained. It's off by default, and when it's on, anything editable
still owns the keystroke: inputs, YAML, and the terminal in the Shell tab
never lose a : to navigation.
Cluster tabs
Clusters open in tabs, side by side — the palette's New cluster tab opens another one, and staging-versus-production becomes a tab switch instead of a context shuffle. Each tab keeps its own cluster, namespace and page.
