Description

I have been using the Mac app for some time and I noticed that there are no shortcuts for emojis. E.g. :) to "🙂", :tada: to "🎉" etc.

I'd love that feature. Keep up the good work! 🙌🏻

Research direction

The issue names only the Mac app and gives examples such as :) and :tada:; no source file, test, or entry point is identified. Start by locating the Mac app's chat input and determining where emoji or shortcut handling belongs. Done would require an agreed shortcut syntax and verified conversion behavior for the requested examples.
