Safe Keys for Extensions

These `ctrl+letter` combos are **free** and work in all terminals:

Key	Notes
`ctrl+x`	Safe
`ctrl+q`	May be intercepted by terminal (XON/XOFF flow control)
`ctrl+h`	Alias for backspace in some terminals — use with caution

macOS Notes

alt+letter combos type special characters in most macOS terminals — they don't send alt sequences
ctrl+shift+letter requires Kitty keyboard protocol (Kitty, Ghostty, WezTerm)
ctrl+alt+letter works in legacy terminals but may conflict with macOS system shortcuts
Safest bet on macOS: stick to ctrl+letter combos from the free list above, or use f1–f12
