Use grizzly to create a Bear note titled "Meeting Notes" with the tag "work" and the content "We discussed next week's release plan and ownership assignments."
A runnable command that creates a new Bear note with the given title, tag, and content.
Use grizzly to query the Bear tag named "work" and return the result in JSON format.
A command with callback and JSON flags to read note information under that tag.
Use grizzly to append "Update: please confirm the assets before Friday." to the end of the Bear note with ID "NOTE_ID", using a token file.
A command using add-text, append mode, and a token file to update the specified note.
Office workers or writers can quickly create Bear notes with titles and tags from the command line, reducing manual organization. It is useful for saving meeting notes, ideas, or todos directly into Bear.
During research or writing, users can query notes by tag and read results with callbacks and JSON when needed. This makes it easier to review notes under a specific topic.
When an existing Bear note needs more information, users can append new text to a specific note. This is useful for maintaining project logs or incrementally updating documents.
The README explains how to use the grizzly CLI on macOS to work with Bear notes, including creating notes, opening a note by ID, appending text, listing tags, and searching by tag. It also covers requirements such as keeping Bear running, when a Bear API token is needed, and how to configure token files, callback URLs, and timeouts, with example commands and common flags.
Use grizzly to create, read, and manage notes in Bear on macOS.
Requirements
~/.config/grizzly/token)For operations that require a token (add-text, tags, open-note --selected), you need an authentication token:
echo "YOUR_TOKEN" > ~/.config/grizzly/tokenCreate a note
echo "Note content here" | grizzly create --title "My Note" --tag work
grizzly create --title "Quick Note" --tag inbox < /dev/null
Open/read a note by ID
grizzly open-note --id "NOTE_ID" --enable-callback --json
Append text to a note
echo "Additional content" | grizzly add-text --id "NOTE_ID" --mode append --token-file ~/.config/grizzly/token
List all tags
grizzly tags --enable-callback --json --token-file ~/.config/grizzly/token
Search notes (via open-tag)
grizzly open-tag --name "work" --enable-callback --json
Common flags:
--dry-run - Preview the URL without executing--print-url - Show the x-callback-url--enable-callback - Wait for Bear's response (needed for reading data)--json - Output as JSON (when using callbacks)--token-file PATH - Path to Bear API token fileGrizzly reads config from (in priority order):
GRIZZLY_TOKEN_FILE, GRIZZLY_CALLBACK_URL, GRIZZLY_TIMEOUT).grizzly.toml in current directory~/.config/grizzly/config.tomlExample ~/.config/grizzly/config.toml:
token_file = "~/.config/grizzly/token"
callback_url = "http://127.0.0.1:42123/success"
timeout = "5s"
--enable-callback when you need to read data back from BearIt lets you create, open, search, and manage Bear notes on macOS through the grizzly CLI. The docs also show appending text, listing tags, and searching by tag.
You need the Bear app installed and running. Some operations also require a Bear API token, such as add-text, tags, and open-note --selected, and the token can be stored in ~/.config/grizzly/token.
Use --enable-callback; add --json as well if you want structured output. The docs state that callbacks are needed when reading data back from Bear.
