# notesctl (Apple Notes, low-token)
## Goal
Minimize token usage and avoid fragile quoting by routing Apple Notes operations through bundled scripts.
## Quick start
### Create a new note (deterministic title/body)
- JSON stdin (recommended):
```bash
echo '{"title":"Title","body":"Line 1\nLine 2","folder":"Notes"}' | {baseDir}/scripts/notes_post.sh
```
- Direct args:
```bash
{baseDir}/scripts/notes_new.sh "Title" $'Body line 1\nBody line 2' "Notes"
```
### List/search/export
```bash
{baseDir}/scripts/notes_list.sh "Notes"
{baseDir}/scripts/notes_search.sh "query" "Notes"
{baseDir}/scripts/notes_export.sh "query" "Notes" "/tmp" # interactive select then export
```
## Output conventions
- Keep receipts short: `Wrote to Notes: <title>`.
## Notes on editing
Editing existing notes is inherently more fragile:
- Prefer append workflows or create a new note with a reference.
- If the user explicitly wants interactive editing, use `memo notes -e` (manual selection + editor).
