Settings

Open Settings with , (or o) in Rakumux mode, or the , Settings button in the footer. It’s one scrolling page under a search field: the settings first, then, under Keys, every action and its keys. Type to narrow it to the settings and actions whose name or heading has every word you type, such as feed or restart.

Key	Does
Typing, `Backspace`	Search, and delete from the search
`↑`, `↓`	Choose a setting or an action
`→`, `←`	Show or hide what the selected row does
`Enter` (and `Space` while nothing is typed)	Change the selected setting, or run the selected action
`PgUp`, `PgDn`, `Home`, `End`	Move a page, or to the ends
`Esc`	Clear the search, then close

Signing in comes first, then what it brings, then the rest.

Account

Setting	What it does
Account	Signs in to your Rakumux account, or shows who’s signed in (`a`). See Sign in.

Greyed out until you sign in. AI session titles and Agent feed are switches on your account, the same ones as at rakumux.com/features, so a change shows on every machine you’re signed in on. Replies from rakumux.com belongs to this machine alone.

Setting	What it does
AI session titles	Names your sessions with AI, from what you asked their agent (on by default). Names you give sessions yourself are kept. See AI session titles.
Agent feed	The Feed beside your sessions (`f`): what your agents said, and the chats behind it, from every machine on your account (off by default). See Agent feed.
Replies from rakumux.com	Whether this machine types replies written on rakumux.com, or in Rakumux on your other machines, into its agent sessions (off by default). Off, they aren’t typed in here and say so; replies written in this machine’s own Rakumux always are. Only this machine’s setting, saved on it, and never changed from the website. See Reply.

Appearance, keyboard and app

Setting	What it does
Layout	Master detail, Grid or Tabs. See Layouts. Phones offer Master detail and Tabs.
Icons	Marks for folders and branches: Plain works in any font, Emoji needs a colour emoji font, Nerd Font needs a Nerd Font set in your terminal. If a mark shows as a box, your terminal can’t show it.
Option+↑/↓ in sessions	On: Option/Alt+↑/↓ switch sessions from inside a session too, so the program there never gets them. Off (the default): they switch sessions in Rakumux mode only. OpenCode, Pi and Claude Code use these keys.
Update	Shows the installed version, or a newer one that’s available. `Enter` (or `U`) checks for a release, asks you to confirm, then installs it and restarts only the UI. See Updating.
Restart UI	Reloads this window with the latest build (`R`). The server and every session keep running.
Restart server	Restarts the background server in place with this build (`S`), for example after an update. Sessions and their programs keep running, and every window reconnects. Shows the running server’s version, and the new one when they differ. Same as `rakumux daemon restart`.
Terminal panel	Opens a temporary shell below the main detail (`T`). See Terminal panel.

Keys

Below the settings, Settings lists every Rakumux mode action with its keys, and Enter runs the selected one, so you can use it as a command menu. The same list is on Keyboard and mouse.

Settings in the config file

A few settings live only in ~/.rakumux/config.json, such as the Rakumux key, the session cycle keys and the AI naming keys. See Configuration.
