OpenCode has a list of keybinds that you can customize through the OpenCode config.

```json title="opencode.json"
{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",

## Leader key

OpenCode uses a `leader` key for most keybinds. This avoids conflicts in your terminal.

By default, `ctrl+x` is the leader key and most actions require you to first press the leader key and then the shortcut. For example, to start a new session you first press `ctrl+x` and then press `n`.

You don't need to use a leader key for your keybinds but we recommend doing so.

## Disable keybind

You can disable a keybind by adding the key to your config with a value of "none".

```json title="opencode.json"
{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
  "keybinds": {
    "session_compact": "none"
  }
}
```
