What it does

Anywrite is an agent skill from sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills. Compiled CLI covering all 52 endpoints of the Anytype local API — objects, properties, tags, search, chat, files — one binary, no MCP server needed.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Agent Workflows. It works with Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: AAS Core is the local, agent-first control plane for complete catalog discovery, agent-owned selection, stack validation, and planning, backed by 2,400+ agentic skills. Includes… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Agent Workflows work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/anywrite”

Requirements

  • A credential in ANYTYPE_API_KEY

Workflow steps

2 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Ensure Anytype desktop is running and authenticated
  2. Invoke a resource + action

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1e53ce2. 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

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • anytype.io

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

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • ANYTYPE_API_KEY

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

Context cost

Anywrite loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 39 tokens; SKILL.md has 597 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~39
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.4k

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.

anywrite

Overview

anywrite is a single compiled Bun/TypeScript CLI for the Anytype desktop app's local HTTP API — all 52 endpoints across spaces, objects, properties, tags, types, templates, lists, chat, files, members, search, and auth — as one binary with zero runtime dependencies. It exists as a low-context alternative to Anytype's official MCP server: rather than exposing 52 always-loaded tools to every agent session, anywrite is a normal CLI wired as a skill that costs zero context until it's actually invoked, and is equally usable from a terminal or any script.

When to Use This Skill

  • Use when the user mentions Anytype or asks to create, update, search, or organize notes, tasks, or PKM objects.
  • Use when working with Anytype spaces, properties, tags, types, templates, or lists (sets and collections).
  • Use when the user asks to upload files to a space, chat inside a space, or read/write structured objects programmatically.

How It Works

Step 1: Ensure Anytype desktop is running and authenticated

This repository does not ship the anywrite executable. The user must install or build a reviewed upstream release outside the current workspace and provide its explicit absolute path. Before use, verify that path is an executable regular file, is not a symlink, and is not a workspace-relative dist/ artifact. Never auto-discover or execute ./dist/anywrite from the repository being worked on.

The Anytype desktop app must be running locally (default http://localhost:31009). Authenticate once:

bash
"/absolute/path/to/anywrite" auth --status        # shows configured yes/no and where the key came from
"/absolute/path/to/anywrite" auth                 # challenge flow — a 4-digit code appears in the app
"/absolute/path/to/anywrite" auth --code 1234     # non-interactive form of the same exchange

The key is written to ~/.anywrite/config.json and is never printed by any command.

Step 2: Invoke a resource + action
anywrite <resource> <action> [positionals] [--flag value]

Resources: spaces, objects, properties, tags, types, templates, lists, files, members, search, chat, auth. Output is JSON by default; add --pretty for a human view, --json as an escape hatch for anything the typed flags don't model yet. space/type/property positionals accept a name or an id — names are resolved to ids automatically.

Examples

Example 1: Create and update an object
bash
"/absolute/path/to/anywrite" objects create <space> --type task --name "Buy milk"
"/absolute/path/to/anywrite" objects update <space> <object_id> --status "Done"
Example 2: Search and upload a file
bash
"/absolute/path/to/anywrite" search global --query "task" --types task
"/absolute/path/to/anywrite" files upload <space> --file ./image.png
Example 3: Read chat messages
bash
"/absolute/path/to/anywrite" chat messages <space> <chat_id> --all

Best Practices

  • ✅ Pass names for space/type/property and let the CLI resolve them to ids.
  • ✅ Use default JSON output for scripting and --pretty for human review.
  • ✅ Reach for --json when a brand-new API field isn't yet covered by a typed flag.
  • ❌ Don't set an empty-string emoji --icon; omit the flag entirely instead.
  • ❌ Don't expect lists add/remove to work on sets — they only apply to collections.

Limitations

  • This skill does not replace environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
  • Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, or safety boundaries are missing.
  • Bounded by the Anytype local API itself: no block-level editing (body is whole-markdown replace only), no member invite/role management, no template create/update/delete, no space deletion.
  • The object body field is named --body on create but --markdown on update.

Security & Safety Notes

  • The API key is stored locally in ~/.anywrite/config.json and is never printed by any command, including auth --status.
  • Config precedence at runtime: ANYTYPE_API_KEY env var, then ~/.anywrite/config.json, then a read-only fallback to an existing ~/.anytype-cli/config.yaml.
  • All operations target a locally-running Anytype desktop instance; no data is sent to third-party servers.
  • Delete is a soft archive everywhere and is idempotent — a repeated delete stays 200, never 410.

Common Pitfalls

  • Problem: lists add/remove silently does nothing on a set. Solution: These only work on collections, not sets.
  • Problem: Re-uploading an identical file returns an existing object id instead of a new one. Solution: This is intentional — file upload dedupes by content hash.
  • Problem: Chat messages don't paginate like everything else. Solution: Chat paginates by cursor; every other resource paginates by offset.
  • @docx - When the deliverable is a Word document rather than an Anytype object.
