I use Claude across three surfaces every day — the browser at claude.ai, the desktop app, and the Claude Code CLI — and I kept losing track of which shortcut or slash command lived where. So I asked Claude Code to help me build an interactive cheat sheet that covers all three in one place.
The whole thing is searchable across platforms. Hit the search box to find a command regardless of which surface it lives on, or click into a tab to browse by platform.

A few things worth calling out:
- Keyboard shortcuts vary by terminal. The Claude Code tab has a note about configuring Option-as-Meta on macOS — without it, a lot of the
Alt+Xbindings silently do nothing. - Slash commands marked
[Skill]are bundled skills (like/batch,/simplify,/loop), not built-in commands. They behave slightly differently from the core ones. /btwis the single most underused command. It lets you ask a side question mid-task without polluting the main conversation history.
