[Idea] Official Raycast Extension (usememos/raycast-extension)

[youssef-hsn]

📌 Summary

I would like to propose creating an official usememos/raycast-extension repository under the usememos organization. I am volunteering to develop and maintain a feature-rich, official Raycast extension so users can seamlessly search, create, and manage Memos directly from macOS.

❓ Problem & Context

While community-built extensions exist in the Raycast Store, they currently have several limitations

💡 Proposed Solution

By hosting an official repository (usememos/raycast-extension), the project can offer a canonical, maintainer-backed integration. Once ready, we can publish it to the official Raycast Store under the usememos publisher handle.

🚀 Feature Roadmap (MVP & Beyond)

• Quick Capture: Floating window command to quickly save memos with markdown support, tags, and visibility settings.
• Search & Browse Memos: Instant inline search with tag filtering, pinning, and quick copy/open options.
• Resource & Attachment Previews: Basic rendering of attached files or media.
• Self-Hosted Configuration: Flexible host URL and Personal Access Token (PAT) setup.

🙋‍♂️ Contribution Commitment

I am ready to take full ownership of this initiative:

1. Build the initial TypeScript/React MVP.
2. Submit and maintain the PRs in the official repo (and coordinate publishing to the raycast/extensions Store repository).
3. Handle community feature requests and bug reports for the extension.

Next Steps:
Would maintainers be open to creating a usememos/raycast-extension repository (or giving greenlight for this RFC)? I am happy to share a working local prototype/demo video first if you would like to review the UX!
