Notes
Rich-text documents with version history, embedded charts, full-text search, and iCloud sync — accessible to both you and your AI agents.
Notes are rich-text documents powered by a Lexical editor. Use them for project documentation, meeting notes, research findings, or any structured content that your AI agents can also read and write.
Creating a note
Open the Creation Picker (Cmd+N) and select Note, or use the create_note MCP tool from an agent session.
Notes open in Scape's editor pane with full rich-text editing — headings, lists, tables, code blocks, and inline formatting.
Key features
Sections
Notes are organized into sections — block-level units (headings, paragraphs, lists, tables, code blocks, charts). Agents can target individual sections for surgical updates without rewriting the entire note.
Version history
Every edit creates a snapshot in the version history. You can browse previous versions and restore any earlier state. Versions are stored locally in the note_versions table.
Full-text search
All notes are indexed for full-text search. Use the search_notes MCP tool or the in-app search to find content across all notes.
Embedded charts
Data query and chart nodes can be embedded inline in notes. These render live charts (bar, line, area, pie) sourced from your tables — the note auto-refreshes when the underlying data changes.
Attachments
Paste or drop images directly into notes. Attachments are content-addressed and stored locally.
PDF export
Export any note — including embedded charts — to a paginated PDF via export_note_to_pdf.
iCloud sync
Notes sync across your devices via iCloud using CKSyncEngine with Yjs CRDT for conflict-free collaborative merge.
