Manage Apple Notes and Apple Reminders from the CLI. An agent skill from daxaur/openpaw.

  • SKILL.md covers Apple Notes — memo, Apple Reminders — remindctl, Usage Guidelines and Notes
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

C Notes is an agent skill from daxaur/openpaw. Manage Apple Notes and Apple Reminders from the CLI. Uses memo for Notes and remindctl for Reminders. Supports listing, searching, reading, creating notes, and adding/completing reminders.

Its SKILL.md is about 450 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Personal Assistant Wizard for Claude Code — npx pawmode. The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

  • “/c-notes”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a2562d1. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

C Notes loads about 450 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 49 tokens; SKILL.md has 93 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~49
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~450

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

This skill manages Apple Notes via memo and Apple Reminders via remindctl.

Apple Notes — memo

bash
memo list                          # List all notes
memo list --folder "Work"          # List notes in a folder
memo search "query"                # Search notes by content or title
memo read "Note Title"             # Read a specific note
memo create "Title" "Body text"    # Create a new note
memo create --folder "Work" "Title" "Body"
memo delete "Note Title"           # Delete a note
memo folders                       # List all folders

Apple Reminders — remindctl

bash
remindctl list                     # List all reminders
remindctl list "List Name"         # List reminders in a specific list
remindctl add "Task" --due "tomorrow 9am"
remindctl add "Task" --list "Work" --due "2026-03-01"
remindctl complete "Task name"     # Mark reminder as complete
remindctl delete "Task name"       # Delete a reminder
remindctl lists                    # Show all reminder lists

Usage Guidelines

  • Use memo search before creating to avoid duplicates.
  • Dates for remindctl --due accept natural language ("tomorrow", "next Monday") and ISO format.
  • If memo or remindctl is not found, inform the user and suggest installing the OpenPaw c-notes skill.
  • Notes are stored locally in Apple Notes app — no external API needed.

Notes

  • memo requires macOS and Apple Notes app.
  • remindctl requires macOS and Apple Reminders app.
  • Both tools operate on the local user account.
