Research direction

Look for existing keyboard shortcut registration in the codebase, likely in a file like 'keybindings.js' or 'menu.js'. Determine the mechanism used to bind shortcuts and add a new binding for switching tabs. The specific functionality may depend on the tab component, so review the tab management code to understand how to programmatically switch tabs.
