+A conversion of an amount between fiat currencies or cryptocurrencies using daily rates, not a live market quote.

+**Daily rate snapshot**:
+A provider's dated collection of exchange rates. Its snapshot date identifies the rates, not when Conjure retrieved them.

 The Applications shortcut always targets the application launcher, not the last-used tool. Command shortcuts open their selected tool directly. Pressing a shortcut while its destination is already frontmost dismisses Conjure; switching destinations opens a fresh view. Active confirmations and uninstall operations are not interrupted. All global shortcuts pause while recording and resume afterward. Conjure rejects shortcuts already assigned to another destination or used by its own menus and navigation.
 
+Cancelling recording, changing destination, or leaving the recorder restores saved shortcuts. If a replacement cannot be registered, the previous saved binding is retained; any failure to restore a shortcut is reported in Settings.
+
 For Command-Space, select **Applications** and choose **Use ⌘Space**. If it conflicts with Spotlight, Input Sources, or another app, change that binding in System Settings first. Conjure never changes macOS shortcuts for you. Shortcuts work while Conjure is running; they do not start a quit app or require Accessibility permission.
 
-On macOS 27, [Siri AI uses Command-Shift-Space to select a window for screen capture](https://support.apple.com/en-is/guide/mac-help/iphmk4p88mkuky/mac). That system reservation can conflict even though it is not listed under Spotlight or Input Sources. Use another binding unless you have freed the Siri shortcut.
+Conjure lets macOS decide whether a global shortcut can be registered, rather than rejecting it solely because it appears in the system shortcut table. A registered shortcut can still compete with system behavior; if it does, change the conflicting system shortcut or choose another binding.
 
 Install Conjure in `/Applications`, then enable **Launch at login** in Settings to start it in the background. If macOS requires approval, use **Open Login Items Settings…** to grant it.

 Currency and crypto conversions require internet access and use [currency-api](https://github.com/fawazahmed0/exchange-api). These are **daily rates, not live market prices**; the snapshot date is shown with the answer. Treat them as estimates, not trading or payment quotes. Fetch failures show an error rather than silently using old rates; change the query to retry.
 
+Rates are shared across queries and refreshed on the next currency query after the local day changes. While refreshing, a cached answer remains copyable and is labeled stale. Leaving the query or dismissing the launcher does not cancel that shared refresh.
+
+`ConjureKit.CurrencyCalculation` owns this lifetime policy; the launcher renders its result. Its checks use an injected clock and scripted rate fetches.

 ## Emoji picker
 
 Search for **Conjure Emoji**, identified by its centered 🤔 icon, and open it. Browse the grid or search by name, keyword, `:shortcode:`, or emoji. Use the category menu to filter results or show **Recently Used**. Your last 30 selections are saved locally. Favorites appear first, followed by recent selections when browsing All Emoji.
 
-Use the arrow keys or Control-H/J/K/L to navigate left/down/up/right. Return or clicking an emoji copies it and dismisses Conjure, restoring focus to the previous app. Paste with Command-V; no Accessibility permission is needed. Escape or the Back chevron returns to the launcher and restores your search.
+Use the arrow keys or Control-H/J/K/L to navigate left/down/up/right. Return, clicking an emoji, or **Copy and Paste** copies it, dismisses Conjure, and tries to paste into the app that was focused when the launcher opened. Automatic pasting requires **System Settings → Privacy & Security → Accessibility → Conjure**; macOS prompts if permission is missing. After granting it, select an emoji again. If permission is denied, the previous app is unavailable, or focus cannot be restored promptly, the emoji stays copied for manual Command-V. Escape or the Back chevron returns to the launcher and restores your search.
 
-Open **Actions** with Command-K and choose **Favorite** or **Remove Favorite**. Favorites are saved locally and grouped ahead of other emoji, with a small extra spacing break when browsing without a search. There are no star badges.
+Open **Actions** with Command-K for **Copy and Paste** (default), **Copy Emoji** (copy only, no Accessibility permission needed), **Favorite**, or **Remove Favorite**. Favorites are saved locally and grouped ahead of other emoji, with a small extra spacing break when browsing without a search. There are no star badges.
+
+With Actions open, Escape or the Back chevron closes Actions first; another Back returns to Applications and restores your search. Command-W dismisses the entire launcher, including the current Command and its Actions. Switching destinations also removes the previous Command's Actions completely. Copy and Copy and Paste dismiss the launcher without an intermediate Back step.

-- [x] add an emoji picker inspired raycast's emoji picker
+- [x] tighten Command presentation lifetime contracts: guarantee complete Command-owned Actions teardown and distinguish one-level Back from full dismissal or destination replacement. Fixed in the existing controllers without extracting another presentation module. Covered nested Escape, query restoration, replacement with Actions open, and copy/paste dismissal.
-- [x] make the star/favorite symbol a bit smaller when prefixed launcher list entries (e.g. "<star> Application", or "<star> Command")
-- [x] currently the top fade (from the top section/overlay, typically some search input) overshadows the top of main content of the window.
-    - spacing should be added such that the fade doesn't overlay the content.
-    - of course, if the user scrolls some scrollable content, the content would (and should) naturally be overshadowed.
 - [ ] add a notes app inspired by raycast notes
 - [ ] improve on the conjure translation command
