macOS 27 Beta 5 adds a new feature that lets keyboard focus move from the active app's menus to controls on the right side of the Menu Bar using the Left/Right arrow or Tab keys. It's currently disabled by default.



To enable:

Bash: 
defaults write -g NSMenuEnableMenuBarAgent -bool true
defaults write -g NSMenuBarUseAgentNavigation -bool true

and restart the apps you'd like to test this in. It's best to just reboot your Mac for simplicity.

To disable:

Bash: 
defaults delete -g NSMenuEnableMenuBarAgent
defaults delete -g NSMenuBarUseAgentNavigation
