Your notes now live in Git with full history. ## Why apple-notes-sync? -Apple Notes is great on your Mac and iPhone, but terrible for backups, version history, or migrating to Obsidian/Logseq. +Apple Notes is great for writing, but getting your notes *out* is painful. There's no export-all, no API, and no version history. If you work with AI agents or just want peace of mind, that's a problem. -Other exporters are one-shot scripts. This tool gives you **continuous sync**: +I built this because I needed to feed my Apple Notes to LLMs while working on another project. Manually exporting each note was a non-starter. Now my notes live in a Git repo, and any agent — Claude Code, OpenClaw, Hermes, or whatever comes next — can access them instantly. -- **Automatic Git commits + push** — full version history of every edit -- **Orphan cleanup** — deleted notes disappear from the repo automatically -- **Hourly launchd scheduling** — set it and forget it -- **rclone integration** — Google Drive as a bonus backup layer +**What you get:** + +- **Feed notes to AI agents** — point any tool at your GitHub repo and it has all your notes as context +- **Version history** — every edit is a Git commit; accidentally delete a note and it's one `git` command away, no digging through Apple backups required +- **Continuous sync, not a one-shot export** — schedule with launchd and forget about it +- **Orphan cleanup** — deleted notes disappear from the repo automatically, but tracked via git history - **Folder mirroring** — your Notes folder structure is preserved exactly +- **rclone integration** — Google Drive as a bonus backup layer, and also useful for working with NotebookLM > **Note**: This is a one-way export.
