Apple Notes Creation & Editing

Overview

Tools to interact with Apple Notes. Notes are scoped to an automatically created agent-notes folder. Notes are formatted using HTML—supported elements are listed below.

When to Use

Storing information that should persist across sessions
Saving notes, ideas, or data the User wants to keep
Creating task lists, reminders, or reference material
When the User explicitly asks to save/remember something in notes

How to Use

List existing notes to see what's available
Read a note to get its HTML content
Create new notes with HTML-formatted body
Delete notes by title (to edit: read → delete → create)

Usage

# List notes
python scripts/list-notes.py

# Create note (heredoc for reliable input)
cat << 'EOF' | python scripts/create-note.py --title "My Note"
<div>Content here</div>
EOF

# Read note
python scripts/read-note.py --title "My Note"

# Delete note
python scripts/delete-note.py --title "My Note"

Note: The --title is automatically formatted as an <h1> header. Body content is piped via stdin using heredoc (<< 'EOF') to avoid shell escaping issues.
