Platform Aware Keys

A platform-aware chord: macOS writes the modifier as ⌘, Windows and Linux write it as Ctrl, because a hint with the wrong glyph reads as a mistake.

# Install and place "kbd-005" (Platform Aware Keys) from VibeUI

## 1. Install first — do not skip, do not recreate
Run this exact command before writing any code:
npx shadcn@latest add https://vibeui.ru/r/kbd-005.json

Registry item: https://vibeui.ru/r/kbd-005.json
Installs to: components/vibeui/kbd-005.tsx (the exact path follows this project's components.json aliases).
npm dependencies: none.
Registry dependencies: none.

Install it from the registry. Do not recreate it from the description,
do not substitute a similar component from another library, and do not
rewrite it to match the project's existing style.

## 2. What it is
A platform-aware chord: macOS writes the modifier as ⌘, Windows and Linux write it as Ctrl, because a hint with the wrong glyph reads as a mistake.

A chord that adapts to the system: ⌘ on macOS, Ctrl elsewhere. Zero dependencies, one file, detection in useEffect.

## 3. How to use it
import { Kbd005 } from "@/components/vibeui/kbd-005"

Read the installed file for the full prop list.

## 4. Where to place it
This is a small inline component. Put it exactly where the user asked,
inside the existing markup. Do not create a new page, section or
wrapper for it. If a similar control already sits in that spot,
replace it instead of adding a second one.

Placement: ___
(The user fills this line in. If it is still blank, ask where to put it
instead of guessing.)

## 5. Keep exactly as installed
- the local --vibeui-kbd-005-* palette — do not swap it for your theme tokens
- detecting the system after hydration: a value guessed at render time desynchronises the markup
- Ctrl as the starting variant — it is understood on any system, unlike ⌘
- the system caption under the action: without it users cannot tell why the glyph changed
- the kbd tag for keys: a screen reader announces them as input rather than text
- the component's own light surface: keys and captions are dark and vanish on a dark background

## 6. You may change
- the detection mode through platform: auto, mac or windows
- the action name through action
- the chord letter through letter
- the key widths through the --vibeui-kbd-005-* variables

## 7. Rules
- Detection reads the userAgent: it can be spoofed and will miss on rare systems.
- Before hydration the Windows variant is shown — on macOS the glyph swaps once the script loads.
- Linux uses the same Ctrl as Windows: there is no separate branch for it.
- Do not lift the CSS variables into globals.css: the component has to stay a single file.

## 8. Verify
- it renders with no console errors;
- it looks like the preview on the VibeUI page you copied this from;
- if it does not, you changed something listed in section 5 — put it back.

For developers

npx shadcn@latest add https://vibeui.ru/r/kbd-005.json

Клиентский компонент: систему определяет useEffect после гидрации, поэтому в файле есть «use client». Сервер не знает системы клиента, и попытка угадать её при рендере даёт рассинхрон разметки — до определения показывается вариант с Ctrl, понятный на любой системе, в отличие от ⌘. Проп platform позволяет отключить автоопределение и зафиксировать вариант для документации. Ширина клавиши модификатора увеличена для ⌘ атрибутом data-system: знак шире буквы, и без правки ряд клавиш выглядит неровным. Подложка светлая: клавиши и подписи тёмные.

Component source

The same file your agent installs. Here in case you would rather copy it by hand.

// Идея компонента: одно сочетание, разное написание. На macOS модификатор
// пишется знаком ⌘, на Windows и Linux — словом Ctrl, и подсказка с чужим
// знаком читается как ошибка. Платформа определяется после гидрации, а не
// при рендере: сервер не знает системы клиента, и попытка угадать даёт
// рассинхрон разметки. До определения показывается вариант с Ctrl —
// он понятен на любой системе, в отличие от ⌘.
