MoonkaleFrom a friend testing a macOS build from source (Prompt25): “the keybindings are a mix of those intended for Linux and Windows — Ctrl+O acts like Cmd+O, Ctrl+N like Cmd+N. macOS users use Ctrl+N for Emacs-style cursor navigation.”
Cause. Keybinding::matches took a single ctrl_or_meta flag and every caller passed m.ctrl() || m.meta(): one table for all platforms, at the price of both modifiers firing everywhere. On a Mac that makes Ctrl+O, Ctrl+N, Ctrl+S, Ctrl+P… application shortcuts, which on macOS they are not — Ctrl+letter belongs to the text system (Emacs keys in every text field) and Ctrl+click is the context menu.
Done 2026-09-22. moonkale_ext_api::keys: is_mac() (desktop: cfg!(target_os = "macos"); web: navigator.platform/userAgent), primary(&Modifiers) = Cmd on a Mac, Ctrl elsewhere — never both — and primary_name() so menus and the palette print Cmd+O on a Mac. Every site that said “Ctrl or Meta” now asks keys::primary: the frame’s command dispatch, Ctrl+S in the CodeMirror, Rust and flow editors and the rich editor, Ctrl+click in the image viewer, both terminals (file links), git’s Ctrl+Enter, and in the JavaScript bundles the wiki-link clicks (CodeMirror, Milkdown). The Rust terminal sends control bytes for Ctrl only, on every platform — Cmd+C on a Mac is copy, not ^C. The keybinding text in Settings says so. Unit test on the rule; the keybinding-sensitive browser suites unchanged.
Not verified on a Mac — nobody in the project has one; the friend who reported it is the test. If Cmd+Q, Cmd+W or Cmd+, behave oddly in the webview, that is the next report. The CodeMirror and xterm bundles already used Mod- keymaps (Cmd on a Mac) and are untouched.
macOS in Docker? It exists (docker-osx: macOS in QEMU/KVM inside a container; needs KVM, tens of GB, slow), but Apple’s licence allows macOS virtual machines on Apple hardware only, so it is not a route this project uses. The legitimate way is the GitHub macOS runner the release workflow already uses for .dmg builds — which builds but cannot click. Testing stays with people who own a Mac.
