Grounding

Bindings are Zellij's default preset, verified against the shipped default config and cross-checked with the docs and community cheatsheet. The skill states the modal model up front: press Ctrl-<key> to enter a mode (Pane/Tab/Resize/Move/Scroll/Session), act with single keys, then Enter/Esc to return to Normal; Alt-* bindings work directly.
