SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Managing Apple Notes from the terminal or an AI agent normally requires manual GUI interaction, making automation and quick capture impossible. This Skill lets you create, search, edit, move, and export notes programmatically while keeping everything synced across Apple devices via iCloud. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Note Management: List, search (fuzzy), create, edit, delete, and move notes between folders using the memo CLI. - Cross-Device Sync: Notes saved through Apple Notes.app sync automatically to iPhone, iPad, and Mac via iCloud. - Export: Export notes to HTML or Markdown for backup or publishing. - Use Case: A user asks the agent to save meeting takeaways to a "Work" folder in Apple Notes so they appear on their iPhone; the agent runs memo commands to create and file the note. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to create a new Apple Note titled "Shopping List" using the memo CLI.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create an Apple Note from the command line?

Use the memo CLI with "memo notes -a" for an interactive editor or "memo notes -a \"Title\"" for a quick add with a title. The note is saved to Apple Notes.app and syncs via iCloud.

How do I search Apple Notes from the terminal?

Run "memo notes -s \"query\"" to perform a fuzzy search across your notes. You can also list all notes with "memo notes" or filter by folder using "memo notes -f \"Folder Name\"".

Does the memo CLI work on Windows or Linux?

No, memo only works on macOS because it requires Apple Notes.app. Install it via Homebrew with "brew tap antoniorodr/memo && brew install antoniorodr/memo/memo".

When should I use Apple Notes instead of Obsidian?

Use Apple Notes when you want cross-device sync to iPhone and iPad via iCloud. Use the obsidian skill for Markdown-native knowledge management, and the memory tool for agent-internal notes that do not need syncing.

What are the limitations of editing Apple Notes via memo?

memo cannot edit notes containing images or attachments. Interactive prompts also require terminal access, so use pty=true when running through an agent shell.
