The Apple Notes CLI skill enables macOS users to manage their Apple Notes directly from the terminal using the `memo` command-line interface. It addresses the need for streamlined, keyboard-driven note management without opening the native Notes.app. By providing terminal access, users can quickly create, view, edit, delete, search, move, and export notes, making it particularly useful for developers, power users, and anyone who prefers automation and scripting over manual GUI interactions.

This skill offers a range of features for comprehensive note management. Users can list all notes or filter them by folder, perform fuzzy searches, and interactively create new notes with a title or through an editor. Existing notes can be edited, deleted, or moved between folders using interactive prompts. Additionally, notes can be exported to HTML or Markdown formats with Markdown processing handled via Mistune. While versatile, the skill has limitations: it cannot edit notes that contain images or attachments, and interactive prompts require terminal access with proper Automation permissions granted in macOS System Settings.

Ideal use cases include automating note organization, quickly searching for specific notes, or exporting content for documentation and reporting. Target users are macOS individuals who rely on Apple Notes but prefer terminal-based workflows or need integration with scripts. The skill is particularly suited for developers, technical writers, and productivity enthusiasts who value efficient, text-driven management of their note content.
