AI agents can now read the files you attach to notes, if you allow it.

New

  • Note attachments through MCP. A new get_note_attachment tool returns attached images as images, and the text of text, code, CSV, JSON and PDF files. Other file types, such as archives and Office documents, are listed but not shared.
  • Attachment ids. get_note and list_notes show an id for each attachment (for example A12) so agents can fetch it.

Good to know

  • Off by default. Turn on Allow agents to read note attachments in Settings → Privacy → AI agent access (MCP). It's separate from the screenshot toggle.
  • Redaction rules don't apply to attachments; they're shared exactly as you attached them. Whatever an agent reads goes to its AI model, so it leaves your Mac if the agent uses a cloud model.
  • Restart your agent after updating so it sees the new tool.
