Goose makes IntelliJ's "find all" command unusable for Dvorak keyboards

[SalvatoreT]

Describe the bug

Unfortunately globalShortcuts don't work for alternative keyboards (https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/19747).

Goose uses a globalShortcuts for ⌘ ⇧ Y for installing an MCP extension.

https://github.com/block/goose/blob/cfd3ee8fd9c56011dc2689f009f75a1dc86d11fa/ui/desktop/src/main.ts#L551-L554

To type the letter "F" using a Dvorak keyboard layout, you actually press the "Y" key.

Therefore if Goose is open and you try to use a "Find All" command (in an IntelliJ IDE or anywhere else that uses ⌘ ⇧ F), Goose will intercept the command and show you a pop-up.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. On macOS, set your keyboard layout to Dvorak
2. Open Goose
3. Open IntelliJ and try to use the find all command (⌘ ⇧ F, but you'll be pressing the physical "Y" key to get the "F")

Expected behavior The "Find All" window should pop-up.

Screenshots

Please provide following information:

• OS & Arch: macOS 15.3.1, ARM
• Interface: UI

Additional context This is a known issue with Electron.

Got it! Sorry for the pain here @SalvatoreT

Thoughts on a resolution? This is a debugging only workflow so I could just remove it, but could be good to move it to something else that doesn't interfere. Trying to think of a way to do so where I know I won't be interfering with a key combo in another app.

[SalvatoreT]

Removing it would work.

If there was a way to selectively deactivate shortcuts, that'd leave the functionality for most folks without changing too much.

@SalvatoreT Should be fixed by removing the associated code. It was a debugging workflow we didn't really need anymore.

Thank you!
