   This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:

   • Cannot navigate to child sessions #2555: Cannot navigate to child sessions - Reports that ctrl+left and ctrl+right don't work in iTerm/Terminal on Mac, same navigation issue
   • Standard keyboard cursor navigation (Home/End key, ctrl+left/right key) #2649: Standard keyboard cursor navigation (Home/End key, ctrl+left/right key) - Also mentions issues with ctrl+left/right navigation behavior
   • Add support for cmd+ keybinds on macOS #653: Add support for cmd+ keybinds on macOS - Requests proper Command key support on macOS instead of ctrl+ to avoid OS conflicts

   The root cause appears to be that macOS users need cmd+ keybinds instead of ctrl+ to avoid conflicts with system shortcuts like space/desktop switching.

   Feel free to ignore if none of these address your specific case.
