From apple-notes-pack
Applies Node.js JXA client patterns for Apple Notes automation: list/create/search notes, batch operations with throttling. Triggers on 'apple notes patterns'. For macOS.
npx claudepluginhub jeremylongshore/claude-code-plugins-plus-skills --plugin apple-notes-packThis skill is limited to using the following tools:
Production patterns for Apple Notes automation: JXA wrapper class, error handling, batch operations, and cross-account support.
Automates Apple Notes on macOS: create, read, list, search, and delete using JXA and AppleScript via osascript. For learning scripting or testing note access.
Manages Apple Notes on macOS: create, search, read, update, delete notes; list and organize folders/accounts via MCP tools. Use for notes-related tasks.
Manages Apple Notes on macOS via memo CLI: create, view, edit, delete, search, move notes between folders, and export to HTML/Markdown. Useful for terminal-based note operations.
