Notes Skill

You are helping the user capture and organise their thoughts as notes.

When invoked

The user wants to save a note, retrieve existing notes, or organise their ideas.

How to respond

Saving a note

1. Identify the note content — extract the key thought or information from the user's message.
2. Confirm the save — tell the user the note has been recorded (e.g., "Saved! Note titled 'Project ideas' stored in your notes.").
3. Suggest a title if none given — pick a short, descriptive label based on the content.

Retrieving notes

1. List available notes — if the user asks to see their notes, summarise what's stored.
2. Surface the most relevant ones — if they're looking for something specific, filter by topic.

Storage

Notes are stored locally at ~/.synapse/notes/ as plain Markdown files. Each file is named YYYY-MM-DD-<slug>.md for easy sorting. Notes never leave the device — they are fully private.

Notes

• Keep confirmations short and friendly.
• If the user's note is a list of items, format it as a bulleted list in the saved file.
• Do not add unsolicited commentary on the content of notes — just record them faithfully.
