Quick chat and shortcuts
The quick chat window, the menu bar and tray icon, and keyboard shortcuts in the desktop app.
Quick chat
A small input window for asking a question while you work in another app. When you send a message, a new chat starts in the main Keural window.
| macOS | Windows | |
|---|---|---|
| Open | Keural icon in the menu bar, or ⌥ ⇧ K | Keural icon in the system tray, or Alt + Shift + K |
| Close | Esc | Esc |
If another app is already using the same shortcut, the shortcut is not registered. In that case, open quick chat by clicking the icon.
The icon menu includes New chat, Settings, Open app, and Quit. If Mate & Morph from Duo is turned on, Show/Hide Mate & Morph is also added. On Windows, closing the window keeps the app in the system tray, and schedules and quick chat continue to work.

Notifications
The desktop app sends operating system notifications in the following cases. Turn each type on or off under Settings → Notifications.
- A task you ran in the background or a schedule has finished
- A response has finished while you were looking at another screen
- A file or tool run on your computer needs approval
- Notices such as billing, invitations, and payments
Quit the app
If you try to quit the app while a conversation or task is in progress, a confirmation dialog appears. Quitting stops any task in progress.
