Overview

About This Skill

The Apple Notes plugin provides Claude Code agents with persistent storage and retrieval capabilities through Apple's native Notes app on macOS. It supports complete CRUD operations—create, read, list, and delete notes—all scoped to a dedicated agent-notes folder. Notes persist across sessions and automatically sync via iCloud, making it ideal for agents that need to maintain information between conversations or tasks. Developers can format notes with HTML and access full documentation for integration into their agent workflows.

How to Use

Add the marketplace with `/plugin marketplace add ALucek/apple-notes`, then install the plugin using `/plugin install apple-notes@apple-notes-marketplace`. The plugin operates on an `agent-notes` folder in Apple Notes and supports listing, creating, reading, and deleting notes with HTML formatting support.

Use Cases

Store conversation history and task outcomes across Claude Code sessions
