Thanks for writing in. In order for the 1Password desktop app to keep running in the background even when the main window is closed, and continue to make keyboard shortcuts available for use, you need to keep 1Password in the menu bar. Since 1Password is critical security software that stores your most important information, it will only run in the background if the menu bar icon is turned on so that users are always aware when 1Password is open and potentially unlocked on their Mac.
That being said, I've passed your request along to our product team. Thank you for the feedback. 🙂
