Description
Summary
Unified Quick Access should preserve the legacy prefix behavior, and consistently support both > (Commands) and < (Sessions) for quick mode switching.
Problem
In legacy Quick Access, typing > immediately switched to Commands. In Unified Quick Access this no longer works reliably, and there’s no symmetric < behavior for Sessions.
Expected Behavior
- Typing
>switches to Commands - Typing
<switches to Sessions - Removing the leading prefix returns to Files
- Input should normalize to a single prefix character (
>or<)
Why this matters
Prefix switching is a fast, established keyboard workflow. Restoring it (and making it symmetric) keeps Unified Quick Access consistent and efficient.
Notes
This matches legacy Quick Access behavior for > and extends it consistently with < for Sessions.
