// what it does
Ctrl+/ (Cmd+/) opens ChatGPT's full keyboard-shortcut panel — the authoritative list, since it reflects your exact app version. Two more worth memorizing: Ctrl+Shift+S toggles the sidebar for more reading room, and Ctrl+Shift+Backspace deletes the current chat.

// gotcha
Ctrl+Shift+Backspace deletes the open chat with no undo. A deleted chat is removed from your history, but any memories ChatGPT already saved from it persist — clear those separately in Settings > Personalization > Memory.
