description

Send notes and memos to flomo (浮墨笔记) via URL Scheme with automatic webhook fallback. Use when user wants to save thoughts, links, ideas, or content to their flomo inbox. Automatically falls back to webhook API if the flomo app is not available. Supports hashtags and quick capture workflows on macOS. IMPORTANT: After installing this skill, run `./scripts/configure.sh` to set up your flomo PRO webhook for the best experience.

Flomo via App

Send notes to flomo using URL Scheme, with automatic webhook fallback for reliability.

⚠️ 首次使用提示: 安装后请先运行 ./scripts/configure.sh 进行配置

Quick Start

1. 配置（首次使用必需）

./scripts/configure.sh

运行后会交互式询问：

1. 是否有 flomo PRO 账户
2. Webhook token/URL
3. 保存位置（默认保存到 skill 目录的 .env 文件）

配置默认保存到 .env 文件，这样更便于管理和隔离。

2. 发送笔记

scripts/flomo_send.sh "Your note content" "#tag1 #tag2"

Or manually via URL scheme:

open "flomo://create?content=Hello%20World&tag=daily"

How It Works

The script uses a dual-channel strategy for maximum reliability:

1. Primary: URL Scheme → Opens flomo app directly (instant, local)
2. Fallback: Webhook API → HTTP POST to flomo servers (works without app)

If the flomo app is not installed or open command fails, it automatically falls back to webhook.

Script Usage

Basic Usage

# Simple note
./scripts/flomo_send.sh "My quick thought"

# With tags
./scripts/flomo_send.sh "Meeting notes from today" "#work #meeting"

# From clipboard
./scripts/flomo_send.sh "$(pbpaste)" "#clippings"

# From stdin
echo "Note from pipe" | ./scripts/flomo_send.sh

Webhook Configuration (Optional)

If you ran ./scripts/configure.sh during setup, webhook is already configured.

To manually configure, set environment variable:

# Option 1: Full webhook URL
export FLOMO_WEBHOOK_URL="https://flomoapp.com/iwh/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

# Option 2: Just the token
export FLOMO_WEBHOOK_TOKEN="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

# Then run script
./scripts/flomo_send.sh "Note with fallback" "#test"

Supported Actions

Send Text Note

./scripts/flomo_send.sh "Your note here"

Send with Tags

Tags in format #tagname will be automatically parsed by flomo.

./scripts/flomo_send.sh "Reading notes" "#books #learning"

Multi-line Notes

./scripts/flomo_send.sh "Line 1
Line 2
Line 3" "#journal"

Send with Images (URL Scheme only)

Note: The flomo_send.sh script currently supports text only. To send images, use URL Scheme directly:

# Via URL Scheme directly (supports up to 9 images)
open "flomo://create?image_urls=%5B%22https://example.com/img1.jpg%22%5D&content=Photo%20notes"

Image URLs must be:

• Publicly accessible URLs
• URL-encoded JSON array format
• Maximum 9 images per note

See references/api.md for more details on image parameters.

URL Scheme Format

Direct URL scheme usage (macOS only):

• Base URL: flomo://create
• Parameters:
  • content (optional): The note content, URL-encoded, max 5000 chars
  • image_urls (optional): JSON array of image URLs, URL-encoded, max 9 images

Examples

Text only:

open "flomo://create?content=Your%20URL-encoded%20content"

With images:

open "flomo://create?image_urls=%5B%22https://example.com/img.jpg%22%5D&content=Photo%20notes"

The image_urls parameter format:

• JSON array of publicly accessible image URLs
• Must be URL-encoded with encodeURIComponent

Examples

Save a link:

./scripts/flomo_send.sh "https://example.com/article" "#readlater #tech"

Daily journal:

./scripts/flomo_send.sh "Morning reflection: feeling productive today" "#journal"

Quick idea capture:

./scripts/flomo_send.sh "App idea: AI-powered plant water reminder" "#ideas"

Remote/SSH session (uses webhook):

export FLOMO_WEBHOOK_TOKEN="your-token"
./scripts/flomo_send.sh "Note from server" "#server-log"

Requirements

⚠️ API 和 URL Scheme 功能需要 flomo PRO 会员 才能使用。

URL Scheme (Primary)

• macOS with flomo app installed
• flomo app v1.5+ (supports URL Scheme)
• flomo PRO 会员

Webhook Fallback

• curl command available
• FLOMO_WEBHOOK_URL or FLOMO_WEBHOOK_TOKEN environment variable set
• flomo PRO 会员

Limitations

• Content: Maximum 5000 characters (before URL encoding)
• Images: Maximum 9 images per note (URL Scheme only; webhook does not support images)

Configuration

Environment Variables

Variable	Description	Example
FLOMO_WEBHOOK_URL	Full webhook URL	https://flomoapp.com/iwh/abc123
FLOMO_WEBHOOK_TOKEN	Webhook token only	abc123

Persistent Configuration

Add to your ~/.bashrc, ~/.zshrc, or ~/.bash_profile:

export FLOMO_WEBHOOK_TOKEN="your-webhook-token-here"

Troubleshooting

"Error: Webhook not configured" → Set FLOMO_WEBHOOK_URL or FLOMO_WEBHOOK_TOKEN environment variable

"Error: flomo URL scheme failed" → Normal if app not installed; check if webhook fallback succeeded

Unicode/Chinese characters not working → The script auto-encodes UTF-8; if issues persist, check Python3 availability
