SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Managing Apple Notes from the terminal is not natively supported, forcing users to switch to the GUI for simple note operations. This Skill lets you create, search, edit, move, and export Apple Notes directly from the command line using the memo CLI, with iCloud sync across devices. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Note Management: Create, view, search, edit, delete, and move notes between folders using memo commands. - Fuzzy Search: Find notes quickly with memo notes -s "query" across your entire Notes library. - Export: Export notes to HTML or Markdown for backup or migration. - Use Case: You capture a meeting takeaway and want it on your iPhone immediately. Run memo notes -a "Meeting Takeaways" and the note syncs to all your Apple devices via iCloud. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to create a new Apple Note titled "Shopping List" using the memo CLI.

Frequently Asked Questions about apple-notes

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create Apple Notes from the command line?▼

Use the memo CLI with `memo notes -a "Note Title"` for a quick add or `memo notes -a` to open an interactive editor. Install memo first via `brew tap antoniorodr/memo && brew install antoniorodr/memo/memo`.

How to search Apple Notes in the terminal?▼

Run `memo notes -s "query"` to perform a fuzzy search across all your Apple Notes. You can also filter by folder using `memo notes -f "Folder Name"` to narrow results.

Does memo CLI work on Linux or Windows?▼

No, memo is macOS only because it automates Apple Notes.app, which exists exclusively on macOS. Notes sync to iPhone and iPad via iCloud, but the CLI itself requires a Mac.

Why can't memo edit some of my Apple Notes?▼

memo cannot edit notes containing images or attachments due to limitations in how it interacts with Notes.app. Edit those notes directly in the Notes app instead.

When should I use Apple Notes instead of Obsidian?▼

Use Apple Notes when you want automatic cross-device sync to iPhone and iPad via iCloud with zero setup. Use the obsidian skill for Markdown-native knowledge management with local vault control.
