SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Managing Apple Notes from the terminal is not natively supported, forcing users to switch between the GUI and their command-line workflow. This Skill lets you create, search, edit, move, and export Apple Notes directly via the memo CLI, with notes syncing across all Apple devices through iCloud. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Note Management: Create, view, search, edit, delete, and move notes between folders using memo commands. - Cross-Device Sync: Notes saved to Notes.app sync automatically to iPhone, iPad, and Mac via iCloud. - Export: Export notes to HTML or Markdown for use in other tools. - Use Case: A user asks the agent to save meeting takeaways to Apple Notes so they appear on their iPhone; the agent runs memo notes -a with the title and content. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to create a new Apple Note titled "Shopping List" using the memo CLI.

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

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

How do I search Apple Notes in 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 Linux or Windows?

No, memo is macOS only because it automates Apple Notes.app, which exists only on macOS. You also need to grant Automation access to Notes.app in System Settings under Privacy and Security.

Can memo edit notes that contain images or attachments?

No, memo cannot edit notes containing images or attachments. This is a known limitation, so use the Notes.app GUI for media-rich notes.

When should I use Apple Notes instead of Obsidian?

Use Apple Notes when you want automatic cross-device sync via iCloud to iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Use the obsidian skill instead for Markdown-native knowledge management and local vault workflows.
