## Actions and modes
`config.core` exposes the built-in actions below as immutable `Action` values; `config.modes` exposes immutable `Mode` values. Misspelled methods fail during configuration evaluation, and `bind` rejects the wrong value type. Built-in action strings, built-in Ex aliases (such as `"q"` or `"w"`), and mode strings are not accepted. Only plugin-owned commands use exact string names (`"greet"`, without `:` or arguments) and can only be bound in Normal mode. Interactive Ex commands such as `:q` and `:w path` remain textual. Ruby provides runtime checks, not compile-time checking; the editor still validates action/mode compatibility.

Registered command names may contain dot-separated segments, each starting with an ASCII letter followed by ASCII letters/digits/underscores/hyphens, plus one optional trailing `!`. Names cannot contain whitespace, empty segments, or leading/trailing dots. This grammar applies to core and plugin commands alike.
For command-capable actions, canonical Ex names derive automatically from the action name without `core.`: `config.core.quit` corresponds to `:quit`, while `config.core.diff.close` corresponds to `:diff.close`. The single Rust alias table targets typed actions, so shorthand names such as `:q` follow the canonical name without repeating its spelling. Both canonical names and aliases are reserved against plugin registration; the Ruby ownership map comes from the same catalog and alias table. Native-only action eligibility is unchanged.
## Key notation
Key notation follows [Herdr's readable style](https://herdr.dev/docs/configuration/#keybindings). Literal non-control Unicode characters are case-sensitive (`n`, `J`, `+`); named keys and modifiers are case-insensitive:
