/vim

Toggles Vim keybindings in the input field.

/vim toggles Vim keybindings in the prompt input field, including search motions and visual mode; editing can be triggered from any cursor position in the prompt, not just an empty input field.

✅ WHEN TO USE IT?

Use familiar Vim motions while writing long prompts

/vim — then navigate the input field with hjkl/dw/ct.

⛔ WHEN NOT TO?

You're more comfortable with standard keybindings

Vim keybindings change the behavior of familiar keys like i, dd, or Escape.

Better: Run /vim again to turn it off
