By default, Cmd+T on macOS or Ctrl+T on Windows and Linux opens Solo's new-item palette for quickly creating something in the active project. You can remap or disable this shortcut in Settings > Hotkeys.
Depending on your project and enabled features, you can:
- Create a new command
- Create a new terminal
- Create an agent, including custom flags when available
- Create or import a scratchpad
- Create a todo
When you are focused on an agent, Cmd+T defaults to selecting the same type of agent. For example, if you're using a Codex agent and hit Cmd+T, the default selection in the palette is Codex.
The picker requires an active project. It does not mix in rename or navigation actions. Its only application action is Configure custom agent, listed under Application, which opens Settings > Agents > Agent tools so you can add a custom agent.
Agent-only picker
When a project's Agents section is empty, clicking Add agent can open a narrower version of the New picker. If the project has several runnable agent tools, this picker shows only the available agents and their custom-flags variants. If exactly one agent tool is available, Solo starts it directly instead.
