### Describe your issue

After installation everything was fine. I was able to set the key bindings in Xcode and use them as you would expect.
I had set " Shift + Option + ] " or " Shift + } " initially to accept, as recommended and it worked well.
Then for some reason, it just stopped working.
When it hit " Shift + Option + ] " now it produces a ’ instead of accepting. Right now Xcode seems to be the only app that returns alt codes when i use this button combination. Some setting in Xcode seems to have changed.
Let me know if anyone else has experienced this or if you have any ideas. Thanks.

Update: I have tried to replace the keyboard layout as instructed below and it does not produce special characters anymore. However no binding I make in Xcode works for me anymore with Codeium.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Shift + Option + ] binding in Xcode with Codeium, checking both the special-character behavior and the updated keyboard-layout result. Compare whether any Xcode binding reaches Codeium at all, and use the linked Stack Overflow discussion as background. Done means the binding works again in Xcode or the incompatibility is clearly documented.
