Bluesky: quick search with "/" key

Pressing "/" or Ctrl/Cmd + K instantly focuses the Bluesky search box without any clicking.

Code to copy

// Focus the search box with "/" (or Ctrl/Cmd + K)
(function () {
  function focusSearch() {
    var input = document.querySelector(
      '[data-testid="searchTextInput"], input[aria-label="Search"], input[placeholder*="Search" i]'
    );
    if (input) {
      input.focus();
      try { input.select(); } catch (e) {}
      return true;
    }
    var link = document.querySelector('a[href="/search"], a[aria-label="Search"]');
    if (link) { link.click(); return true; }
    return false;
  }
  document.addEventListener('keydown', function (e) {
    var t = e.target;
    var typing = t && (t.isContentEditable || /^(INPUT|TEXTAREA)$/.test(t.tagName));
    if (e.key === '/' && !typing) {
      if (focusSearch()) { e.preventDefault(); }
    } else if ((e.ctrlKey || e.metaKey) && (e.key === 'k' || e.key === 'K')) {
      if (focusSearch()) { e.preventDefault(); }
    }
  });
})();
