The command bar is a search box that runs commands. Use it to open a resume, letter or application by name, jump to any page, switch the theme or language, or prepare a question for the assistant, without reaching for the mouse.
The command bar with the placeholder "Type a command or search…" and the end of Go to…: Documents, New document, Trash, ATS checker, Applications, Save job and Settings.

Search and commands starts with your main destinations

Open the command bar

Press ⌘ K on a Mac or Ctrl K on Windows and Linux. It works on every page, including inside the editor. On Documents, Applications, Career and Settings, you can also select Search or jump to… at the top of the sidebar. To close it, press Esc or press ⌘ K again.

Run a command

1

Type what you're looking for

Start typing to filter the list. For example, type “theme” to find Change theme to…, or “trash” to find Trash.
2

Pick a row

Use ↑ and ↓ to move, then press Enter, or select the row with the mouse.
3

Start over if you need to

Some rows open a second list, such as your resumes or the list of languages. Press Backspace in an empty search box to go back one list.

Find a document or application

When you’re signed in, typing on the first list also searches your documents and applications. Matches appear above the commands, the top match is selected until you move the highlight, and Enter opens it:
  • Resumes and Letters match a document’s name, its tags, and the company or role of the application it was made for. A resume’s public address isn’t searched, because it can still carry an earlier name.
  • Applications match the company, role, location, tags or a contact’s name.
  • Assistant conversations match the conversation’s title or its document’s name.
Each group shows its first few matches. Show all resumes, Show all applications and Show all conversations open the full list for that kind. Show all letters opens Documents filtered to letters, keeping the text you typed. The library keeps that search as you move between pages. If a read fails, choose Try again (web) or Retry (native); a failed read does not mean there are no matches.
The command bar with "unreal" typed in the search box, the letter "Studio note" selected under Letters, and Ask the assistant "unreal" below it.

Typing a tag finds the letter that carries it

The command bar finds eight fictional letters by tag and offers Show all letters to continue into Documents.

More than eight matching letters continue into the filtered Documents library

The Resumes list loads 100 matches per page. Use Next and Previous to reach older matches. Show all resumes keeps the search you typed. In the native app, Show all opens the paginated Documents library when Search reaches 100 matches. Wait for document results to load before pressing Search on the keyboard; selecting a visible result also opens it.
The command bar shows Archive resume 101 on the second page and a Previous action, keeping the archive-resume search.

What you can do

The command bar groups its rows by what they do. Rows that need an account appear or become available once you’re signed in.

Documents

When you’re signed in and type on the first screen, your resumes and letters whose name, tags, or linked job’s company or role match appear first, above commands. Press Enter to open the top match in its editor.

Ask the assistant

When you’re signed in, anything you type also appears as a last row: Ask the assistant ”…”, with your text in the quotes. Choosing it prepares an unsent draft for the assistant.
Command bar with Make my summary shorter entered and an Ask the assistant action

Choosing Ask prepares an unsent draft for the assistant

  • In the editor, the question is about the document you have open. The assistant panel opens with your question in the composer. Review it and press Send.
  • Anywhere else, choose a resume or letter from the document picker. Reactive Resume opens that document and fills the composer. Nothing is sent until you press Send and approve the destination. If you have no documents, create one first.
The assistant needs a tested, enabled AI provider. If none is ready, the Ask row says Connect an AI provider before you leave the command bar. Choose it to connect or repair a provider in place. Closing setup keeps your question here; connecting doesn’t send it. Choose Ask again when ready. Loading or failed connection lookups don’t open a document.
The command palette keeps Tighten my fictional summary in its input and names Connect an AI provider beside Ask.

Connect a provider without losing your question

Native Search also keeps your question while its provider setup sheet is open. The Ask row names the document it will open; your question waits in that document’s composer until you send it. See Connecting an AI provider.
