What problem does it solve?

macOS users often need a quick, scriptable way to read from and create in Apple Notes without opening Notes.app. nanotes exposes a lightweight CLI to interact with Notes data directly from the terminal, delivering human-readable output by default and JSON for automation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Read folders, list notes, show details, search, attach, and dump notes from Apple Notes via the terminal.
  • Create new notes in a selected folder with a simple command, enabling lightweight automation and integration with other tools.
  • Use cases include scripting note migrations, generating quick inventories of notes, or exporting data for backups.

Quick Start

Run nanotes folders --json to list folders and nanotes list --folder "Notes" --json to retrieve notes.
