Or with the ClawHub CLI, for registry-managed skill folders outside a full OpenClaw workspace:
What This Skill Does
Interacts with Bear notes on macOS through the grizzly CLI. Supports creating, reading, searching, and appending to notes using Bear's x-callback-url system. Bear must be running for any command to work.
Enables scripting and automation of Bear note management without touching the GUI, which is otherwise impossible with Bear alone.
When to use it
- Create a tagged note from piped command output
- Append meeting summaries to an existing Bear note
- List all tags to audit note organization
- Search notes by tag and return structured JSON
- Read a specific note's content by its ID
Example Workflow
Here's how your AI assistant might use this skill in practice.

- 1Pipe the note content to grizzly create
- 2Pass --title 'Sprint Retrospective' and --tag work flags
- 3Bear opens and saves the note
- 4Capture the new note ID via callback response
A new note titled 'Sprint Retrospective' appears in Bear under the 'work' tag
