Command-line interface for Joplin workflows using the real joplin terminal backend

  • SKILL.md covers Requirements, Install, Usage and JSON output contract, plus 3 more sections
  • Calls python, pip and npm

What it does

CLI Anything Joplin is an agent skill from HKUDS/CLI-Anything. Command-line interface for Joplin workflows using the real joplin terminal backend

Its SKILL.md is about 1000 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: "CLI-Anything: Making ALL Software Agent-Native" -- CLI-Hub: https://clianything.cc/. The licence is Apache-2.0.

Example prompts

  • “/cli-anything-joplin”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 34f5195. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python
    • pip
    • npm

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pip and npm, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

CLI Anything Joplin loads about 999 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 26 tokens; SKILL.md has 320 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~26
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~999

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.

Command-line interface for Joplin workflows using the real joplin terminal backend

cli-anything-joplin

Use this skill to automate Joplin notebook, note, to-do, tag, attachment, search, sync, and import/export workflows through a stateful harness backed by the real joplin terminal binary.

Requirements

  • Python 3.10+
  • Joplin terminal binary available as joplin
  • Optional: pass --profile to target a specific Joplin profile

Install

bash
cd joplin/agent-harness
pip install -e .

Usage

bash
# REPL mode (default)
cli-anything-joplin

# Machine-readable one-shot command
cli-anything-joplin --json notebooks list

# Stateful project
cli-anything-joplin project new --name demo -o ./demo.joplin-harness.json
cli-anything-joplin --project ./demo.joplin-harness.json notes create "Meeting note"

# Dry-run (no auto-save)
cli-anything-joplin --json --dry-run --project ./demo.joplin-harness.json notes create temp

JSON output contract

When --json is enabled, commands return:

  • ok: boolean
  • command: stable command identifier such as notes.list, todos.toggle
  • data: command payload
  • error: null on success, or { type, message } on failure

Command groups

  • project: new, open, save, info, json, status
  • notebooks: list, create, use, remove
  • notes: list, create, set, get, remove, copy, move, rename
  • todos: list, create, toggle, clear, done, undone
  • tags: list, add, remove, notetags, tagnotes
  • search: run
  • sync: run (--target, --upgrade, --use-lock)
  • interop: import, export
  • config: get, set, list, export, import-file
  • attach: add
  • status: show, restore
  • backend: version, dump, keymap, geoloc, export-sync-status
  • server: status, start, stop
  • e2ee: status, target-status, decrypt, decrypt-file
  • session: status, undo, redo, history

Agent guidance

  • Prefer --json for parseable output.
  • Use --project when running multi-step workflows so history is persisted.
  • One-shot mutating commands auto-save the project unless --dry-run is set.
  • REPL mode does not auto-save; run project save explicitly.
  • Some Joplin CLI builds gate search behind GUI mode; if you see "only available in GUI mode", treat search as best-effort.
  • Joplin 3.6.x can have a broken version command in npm global layouts; the harness falls back to installed package metadata for backend version, probing the symlink-resolved binary directory, the Windows-style sibling node_modules/joplin, the Unix-style parent lib/node_modules/joplin, and finally npm root -g.
  • Backend stdout/stderr in command results are verbatim; do not assume warnings were stripped from note bodies or exports.
  • On failure, parse error using the same command field as success (config.import_file, e2ee.decrypt_file). Multi-word subcommands use a single dot between group and subcommand.

Test workflow

bash
# Quick feedback loop
python -m pytest -q cli_anything/joplin/tests/test_core.py
python -m pytest -q cli_anything/joplin/tests/test_full_e2e.py::TestCLISubprocess

# Real backend (joplin must be in PATH)
python -m pytest -v cli_anything/joplin/tests/test_full_e2e.py::TestBackendCommands
python -m pytest -v cli_anything/joplin/tests/test_full_e2e.py::TestBackendWorkflows
python -m pytest -v cli_anything/joplin/tests/test_full_e2e.py::TestBackendIntegration

# Full suite
python -m pytest -v --tb=no cli_anything/joplin/tests

# Verify the installed console script entry point
CLI_ANYTHING_FORCE_INSTALLED=1 python -m pytest -v -s cli_anything/joplin/tests/test_full_e2e.py

Current validation baseline (Windows + Joplin CLI 3.6.2):

  • python -m pytest -q cli_anything/joplin/tests/test_core.py -> 107 passed
  • python -m pytest -q cli_anything/joplin/tests -> 134 passed, 1 skipped
