Shift can be added. The shortcut is saved locally and restored when Conjure starts. No shortcut is claimed until you choose one; **Clear** disables it.
 
 For Command-Space, click **Use ⌘Space**. If it conflicts, open **System Settings → Keyboard → Keyboard Shortcuts** and disable or change the conflicting Spotlight or Input Sources binding, or another app's shortcut, then try again. The Settings window includes an **Open Keyboard Settings…** button. Conjure reports conflicts rather than modifying macOS preferences, and a failed change preserves your working shortcut.
