Is there a way to navigate a palette with the keyboard i.e. up/down arrows to scroll up/down the list of macros and enter to trigger a macro listed in the palette?

In a Conflict Palette?
You can use numbers as well (press 1 for the first option, 2 for the second one, and so on)

The answer is no, you can’t, in a conflict palette. See here:
Is there a hidden setting by chance that allows you to navigate conflict palette choices uses arrow keys?

Hey Ross,
As @tiffle says...
Have you thought about a Prompt With List action?
A couple of keystrokes, Return and you're done.

This native KM action will allow you to search for macros and navigate with the arrow keys through the list:
There is a macro made by @DanThomas that allows us to do more.
MACRO: Execute Macro by Name (Spotlight)
NOTE: Do not double-click the package file "Spotlight Search Prompt Resources.pkg"
It won't hurt anything, but you'll get a very misleading error message. The error message will tell you that the file is corrupted. It's not corrupted. I shouldn't have used a package file to store resources. It doesn't hurt, but it's obviously confusing.
Please just move the package file somewhere, usually in your Documents folder or a subfolder. Then leave it as is. DO…
