Quick Notes

Quick notes for the Omarchy bar. A sticky-note icon lives in your bar; click it to open a popup where you can create, edit, and delete short notes.

Install

omarchy plugin add https://github.com/TibeDev/omarchy-quick-notes.git --enable

Usage

• Click the icon in the bar to open the notes panel.
• Click + to create a new note.
• Click a note in the list to open it for editing. Title and body save automatically as you type (or press Ctrl+S for an explicit save).
• Click the trash icon (on a row, or Delete in the editor) to delete a note, then confirm.

Keyboard

The whole panel is navigable with arrows - no mouse required:

• Arrow keys / hjkl move the keyboard cursor around: through the note list and the + button in the list view, and through Back / Title / Body / Delete in the editor.
• Enter / Space activates whatever the cursor is on - opens a note, creates one, enters a text field to type, or triggers Delete/Back.
• In the list: n creates a new note, x deletes the selected one.
• Escape: while typing in a field, the first press leaves typing mode and returns to browsing the editor's controls; press it again to go back to the list; once more to close the panel.
• Ctrl+N starts a new note from anywhere in the panel. While a note is open for editing, Ctrl+S saves immediately and Ctrl+Backspace deletes the note - both work no matter where the focus is.

Storage

Notes are stored as plain JSON at ~/.local/state/omarchy/plugins/quick-notes/notes.json. Storage is bounded to keep the shell process healthy even if that file is hand-edited or replaced: up to 500 notes, 200 characters per title, 20,000 characters per body, and a 12 MiB total file size. The file's size is checked on disk (via stat, without reading its content) before it is ever loaded; an oversized file is rejected rather than read into memory.
