# Actions palette

The Actions palette opens the command palette directly on **Actions**. By default, press `Cmd+Shift+K` on macOS or `Ctrl+Shift+K` on Windows and Linux. You can remap or disable **Open actions** in [Settings > Hotkeys](../keyboard-shortcuts/customizing.md).

Use this mode when you know what you want to do, rather than where you want to go.

## What it shows

At the top level, Actions can include:

- Available actions for the active project, such as adding a command, terminal, or agent; starting or restarting commands; and opening the project in another app.
- A **Show actions** entry for each project.
- Application actions such as opening Settings or Activity monitor, adding a project, changing the theme, adjusting font sizes, refreshing the shell environment, sending feedback, or quitting Solo.

Solo only shows actions that make sense right now. For example, start and stop choices depend on the current process state, and agent creation choices depend on the agent tools available to that project.

## Drill into a project

Select a project's **Show actions** entry to narrow the palette to that project. The next view contains project actions plus actions for its commands, terminals, and agents.

Choose **Back to all actions** to return to the top level.

## Search a project directly

You don't have to drill in first. Type a project name, `>`, and an action or process name:

```text
storefront > restart worker
```

The part before `>` can be a full or partial project name. When the palette is searching **All workspaces**, it can also match a workspace name.

## Actions vs. Context

Actions searches across application and project actions. [Context actions](./context-actions.md) is narrower: it shows actions for the item or view currently selected in Solo.

If the palette is already open, click **Actions** in its scope bar or invoke the Actions shortcut to switch modes without closing it.
