Requirements – Bear app installed and running – For some operations (add-text, tags, open-note –selected), a Bear app token (stored in `~/.config/grizzly/token`) ## Getting a Bear Token For operations that require a token (add-text, tags, open-note –selected), you need an authentication token: 1. Open Bear → Help → API Token → Copy Token 2. Save it: `echo "YOUR_TOKEN" > ~/.config/grizzly/token` ## Common Commands Create a note “`bash echo "Note content here" | grizzly create –title "My Note" –tag work grizzly create –title "Quick Note" –tag inbox < /dev/null “` Open/read a note by ID “`bash grizzly open-note –id "NOTE_ID" –enable-callback –json “` Append text to a note “`bash echo "Additional content" | grizzly add-text –id "NOTE_ID" –mode append –token-file ~/.config/grizzly/token “` List all tags “`bash grizzly tags –enable-callback –json –token-file ~/.config/grizzly/token “` Search notes (via open-tag) “`bash grizzly open-tag –name "work" –enable-callback –json “` ## Options Common flags: – `–dry-run` — Preview the URL without executing – `–print-url` — Show the x-callback-url – `–enable-callback` — Wait for Bear's response (needed for reading data) – `–json` — Output as JSON (when using callbacks) – `–token-file PATH` — Path to Bear API token file ## Configuration Grizzly reads config from (in priority order): 1. CLI flags 2. Environment variables (`GRIZZLY_TOKEN_FILE`, `GRIZZLY_CALLBACK_URL`, `GRIZZLY_TIMEOUT`) 3. `.grizzly.toml` in current directory 4. `~/.config/grizzly/config.toml` Example `~/.config/grizzly/config.toml`: “`toml token_file = "~/.config/grizzly/token" callback_url = "http://127.0.0.1:42123/success" timeout = "5s" “` ## Notes – Bear must be running for commands to work – Note IDs are Bear's internal identifiers (visible in note info or via callbacks) – Use `–enable-callback` when you need to read data back from Bear – Some operations require a valid token (add-text, tags, open-note –selected)
