If an ex is claiming that I have her keys and wants to file a restraining order, what is my best course of action?

I want no further contact with that ex and I do not have the keys. I would like to avoid the RO.

Having your keys would not be the basis for having a restraining order issued against you.  You can always choose to hire an attorney to draft a letter on your behalf and oppose any restraining order.
