Claude Code CLI Adds Shortcuts & Wildcard Permissions

Claude Code CLI users can leverage new keyboard shortcuts and wildcard permissions to accelerate development workflows.

Keyboard Efficiency:

• Enter key: Accepts and submits prompt suggestions immediately without editing
• Tab key: Accepts suggestions for further editing before submission
• Ctrl+S: Captures higher-resolution stats screenshots for documentation

Permission Management:

• mcp__server__*: Grants or denies all tools from an MCP server simultaneously using wildcard syntax

Team Collaboration:

• plan_mode_required: Forces teammates to approve implementation plans before executing changes

Performance Monitoring:

• current_usage field: Displays accurate context window percentages in the status line

These shortcuts eliminate repetitive typing and permission configuration. The Enter key acceptance alone saves seconds per suggestion, while wildcard permissions prevent individual tool authorization. Teams gain implementation oversight through plan approval requirements, and memory improvements support 3x larger conversation histories without performance degradation.
