You are writing an email, and you need something that lives in TypeFire. Command Control Backslash opens the search over whatever you are doing. One word, and snippets, clips and notes come back ranked together, each with a preview. Arrow down, and the preview follows. The pill at the top narrows it to one kind: Snippets, Clips, or Notes. What you typed travels with you. Each tab also has a shortcut of its own. Command Control 1 is Snippets, 2 is Clips, 3 is Notes. The line at the bottom says what the keys do, and it changes with the row. On a note, Enter opens it in the app, and Command Enter inserts its text here instead. On a snippet or a clip, Enter inserts. The screenshot goes straight into the email. Two more shortcuts are for notes. Command Control Shift N is quick capture: a note from anywhere, with a title if you want one. Save, and it is a note in your vault, already open in the app. And Command Control Shift D opens today's daily note, making it if it is not there yet. Escape closes any of these windows and puts you back where you were.
