What issue are you seeing?
App didn't ALLOW me to apply SHIFT-ENTER to submit.
App didn't PREVENT me from applying same keystroke to two different actions. Now ENTER does newline AND submit.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
SHIFT-ENTER Issue:
/keymap- Choose
composer submit - Choose
Replace binding - Type
SHIFT-ENTER - Choose
Back to shortcuts composer submitis still ENTER, not SHIFT-ENTER
CONFLICTING KEYMAP issue:
- Choose
Editor Insert Newline - Choose
Replace one binding - Choose
CTRL-j - Press
ENTER - Now two different actions are bound to
ENTER
What is the expected behavior?
Accept SHIFT-ENTER for Submit.
Disallow conflicting keymaps.

- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
No source file or test is named. Reproduce the keymap configuration in Codex CLI 0.149.1 on Linux under WSL2 with Windows Terminal, then trace how Submit and SHIFT-ENTER conflicts are detected. Done means SHIFT-ENTER can be assigned to Submit without the conflicting-keymap behavior and the behavior is covered by an appropriate test.
