πŸ“– About This Skill

version: "2.0.0" name: notelane description: "Organize notes as a personal knowledge base with tagging and full-text search. Use when capturing notes, searching entries, building a knowledge base."

Notelane

Notelane v2.0.0 β€” a productivity toolkit for adding, planning, tracking, reviewing, and organizing notes from the command line. Features streaks, reminders, prioritization, tagging, timelines, weekly reviews, and full data export.

Features

  • 18+ subcommands covering the full note-taking and productivity lifecycle
  • Productivity-focused β€” streaks, reminders, prioritization, weekly reviews built in
  • Local-first storage β€” all data in ~/.local/share/notelane/ as plain-text logs
  • Timestamped entries β€” every record includes YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM timestamps
  • Unified history log β€” history.log tracks every action for auditability
  • Multi-format export β€” JSON, CSV, and plain-text export built in
  • Full-text search β€” grep-based search across all log files
  • Zero external dependencies β€” pure Bash, runs anywhere
  • Automatic data directory creation β€” no setup required

    • Data Storage

    All data is stored in ~/.local/share/notelane/:

  • add.log, plan.log, track.log, review.log, streak.log, remind.log, prioritize.log, archive.log, tag.log, timeline.log, report.log, weekly-review.log β€” per-command entry logs
  • history.log β€” unified audit trail of all operations
  • export.json, export.csv, export.txt β€” generated export files

    • Each entry is stored as YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM| (pipe-delimited).

    Requirements

  • Bash 4.0+ (uses set -euo pipefail)
  • Standard Unix utilities: date, wc, du, tail, grep, sed, cat, basename
  • No root privileges required
  • No internet connection required

    • When to Use

    1. Quick note capture β€” run notelane add "Meeting notes: decided to migrate to Postgres by Q3" to instantly record a thought or decision 2. Planning and goal tracking β€” use notelane plan "Sprint 12: finish API refactor, deploy staging" and notelane track "API refactor 80% complete" to manage projects 3. Building daily streaks β€” log daily habits with notelane streak "Day 15: morning workout done" to maintain consistency tracking 4. Weekly retrospectives β€” use notelane weekly-review "Shipped 3 features, 1 bug regression, need more testing" to document weekly learnings 5. Organizing with tags and timelines β€” tag entries with notelane tag "project:atlas priority:high" and build event timelines with notelane timeline "2024-03-15: v2.0 launched"

    How It Works

    Notelane stores all data locally in ~/.local/share/notelane/. Each command logs activity with timestamps for full traceability. When called without arguments, data commands display their most recent 20 entries. When called with arguments, they append a new timestamped entry and update the unified history log.
