Top chrome & ⌘K
The Studio runs on a single top bar — the top chrome — instead of a left sidebar. Everything reachable from the old nav now lives either on the stage rail, inside the channel pill dropdown, or behind the avatar menu.
What's where
Row 1 — identity & search
craft.logo (top-left) — click to clear the channel and return to the landing page.- Channel pill — shows the current channel. Click to open the dropdown: switch channels, open channel settings, jump to Proposals or Jobs (if you're premium), or add a new channel.
- Peer avatars — the next few channels' initials, one click to switch.
- ⌘K search slot — opens the command palette. Click or press
⌘K(Ctrl+Kon Linux/Windows). - Avatar (top-right) — opens a menu with API keys, change password, color scheme & light/dark, documentation, and sign out.
Row 2 — the stage rail
The five primary workflow stages are Discover → Ideas → Scripts → Audio → Episodes. The current stage is underlined in accent. On the right side of the rail: Resources, Settings (when a channel is selected), Marketplace, and Feedback.
Command palette (⌘K)
The command palette is the fastest way to navigate. Open it anywhere with ⌘K or by clicking the search slot.
- Arrow keys — move through results
- Enter — run the highlighted action
- Esc — dismiss
It fuzzy-matches across:
- Actions — "Go to Ideas", "Go to Scripts", "Go to Discover", "Go to Audio", "Go to Episodes", "Go to Resources", "Go to Marketplace", "Channel settings".
- Channel switchers — "Switch to {channel name}" for every channel you own.
The footer shows your current channel and reminds you of the key bindings.
Avatar menu
Behind the avatar you'll find:
- API keys — paste Claude OAuth tokens, Gemini / OpenAI / ElevenLabs keys, YouTube Data API, GitHub PAT for feedback → issues, etc. All encrypted server-side.
- Change password — inline form, takes effect immediately.
- Theme & colors — the seven color schemes (Classic / Purple / Blue / Amber / Rose / Liquid gold / Otter) plus light/dark mode toggle.
- Documentation — links to this guide.
- Sign out — ends your session and returns to the login screen.
TIP
Any channel-scoped nav (Proposals, Jobs, channel Settings) is only ever one click deep — open the channel pill and everything for the current channel is listed inline. No more hunt-and-click through nested nav.
