Install the memo CLI with brew tap antoniorodr/memo and brew install antoniorodr/memo/memo, then run memo notes -a "Note Title" to create a note. Use memo notes -a without a title for an interactive editor.

Run memo notes -s "query" to perform a fuzzy search across your notes. You can also list all notes with memo notes or filter by folder using memo notes -f "Folder Name".

No, memo is macOS only because it automates Apple Notes.app, which exists only on macOS. It also requires granting Automation access to Notes.app in System Settings under Privacy and Security.

No, memo cannot edit notes containing images or attachments. This is a documented limitation, so notes with rich media should be edited directly in the Notes.app interface.

Use Apple Notes when you want automatic cross-device sync via iCloud to iPhone, iPad, and Mac with zero setup. Use the obsidian skill instead when you need Markdown-native files and local knowledge management in a vault.
