Command Center
The Command Center is the keyboard-first launcher for the editor. It opens as a floating panel and is the fastest way to move between templates, search, imports, assets, layout, page management, layer management, and Studio-adjacent actions.
[!NOTE] Open it with
Cmd + Kon macOS orCtrl + Kon Windows/Linux.
Root commands
Section titled “Root commands”The top-level command list includes actions such as:
- Open Flowpilot
- Import from data
- Start from Template
- Edit Flow DSL
- Edit Mermaid Code
- Assets
- Search Nodes
- Auto Layout
- Design Systems
Playback-related entries may also appear when the relevant playback surface is active in the current product path.
Views inside the Command Center
Section titled “Views inside the Command Center”Assets
Section titled “Assets”Use Assets when you want reusable visual libraries, not generic editor actions. The current asset libraries are centered on:
- developer logos
- AWS service shapes
- Azure diagrams
- GCP diagrams
- CNCF shapes
- general-purpose icon sets
General insert actions are better handled from the toolbar add menu.
Templates
Section titled “Templates”Use templates when you want a proven starting structure instead of a blank canvas.
Search
Section titled “Search”Use search to jump to named nodes in larger diagrams.
Import
Section titled “Import”Use Import when you already have source material such as SQL, OpenAPI, Terraform, Mermaid, or code-oriented structure that should become an editable first draft.
Layers
Section titled “Layers”Use Layers when the diagram needs visibility, lock, ordering, or section-level organization without flattening everything into one canvas plane.
Use Pages when one flow should contain multiple related canvases instead of separate documents.
Design Systems
Section titled “Design Systems”Use Design Systems to switch themes, duplicate them, edit them, or import/export theme JSON.
How it fits with the rest of the editor
Section titled “How it fits with the rest of the editor”The Command Center is the fastest bridge between the canvas and Studio:
- use the canvas for direct manipulation
- use the inspector for exact edits
- use the Command Center for navigation, search, import, templates, assets, layers, pages, layout, and workflow switching
