Apple Notes

Use

memo

to manage Apple Notes directly from the terminal. Notes sync across all Apple devices via iCloud.

Prerequisites

macOS with Notes.app

Grant Automation access to Notes.app when prompted (System Settings → Privacy → Automation)

When to Use

User asks to create, view, or search Apple Notes
Saving information to Notes.app for cross-device access
Organizing notes into folders
Exporting notes to Markdown/HTML

When NOT to Use

Obsidian vault management → use the
```
obsidian
```
skill
Bear Notes → separate app (not supported here)
Quick agent-only notes → use the
```

```
tool instead

```
tool for agent-internal notes that don't need to sync
Use the
```
obsidian
```
skill for Markdown-native knowledge management
