macOS & Windows

Learn your hotkeys

This is the most important thing to memorize. SneakAI is invisible — it has no icon in the taskbar, Dock, or app switcher. Global hotkeys are the only way to show it, hide it, and use it. If you ever “lose” the app, just press the show/hide hotkey to bring it right back. Commit these to memory.

macOS

  • Show / hide SneakAImost important⌘⇧H
  • Toggle Sneak Mode (invisible to screen-share)⌘⇧S
  • Capture screen & answer⌘⇧Return

Windows

  • Show / hide SneakAImost importantCtrlShiftH
  • Toggle Sneak Mode (invisible to screen-share)CtrlShiftS
  • Capture screen & answerCtrlShiftEnter

Tip: the hotkeys work globally — even while another app is focused — and the keystrokes never reach the app you're in. If a hotkey doesn't respond, make sure SneakAI is running and (on macOS) that you granted Accessibility permission.
