Description
Extension
https://www.raycast.com/ike-gg/clean-keyboard
Raycast Version
1.103.10
macOS Version
26.1
Description
When using the extension, the fn-layer actions continue to work (this was also the case on previous macOS versions). But if the keys are switched from fn to standard F1–F12, they get blocked. As a possible solution, it could be helpful to add an option in the app to temporarily switch the behavior of the function keys while the keyboard lock is active.
Steps To Reproduce
- fn button turn on
- start extension
- fn buttons work (volume, brightest)

Research direction
Start with the Clean Keyboard extension linked in the issue and reproduce the behavior on macOS 26.1 using Raycast 1.103.10, comparing the fn-layer actions with standard F1–F12 keys. Trace how keyboard locking handles both key modes, then confirm the intended behavior and verify that the agreed handling works while the lock is active.
