What this skill does

Monologue Notes API This skill provides the information needed to call the Monologue Notes REST API directly. Use it for read-only operations on the authenticated user's notes. Use whatever HTTP client fits the task: curl, a short script, or another REST-capable tool. Do not invent client libraries unless the user asks for one. Authentication Use the environment variable MONOLOGUEAPIKEY as the bearer token. Required auth header: Authorization: Bearer $MONOLOGUEAPIKEY Required scope: notes:read Never print the token, echo it, log it, or include it in a response to the user Only pass it through the Authorization header as a shell variable expansion Check whether the token is available without displaying it: If MONOLOGUEAPIKEY is missing: Report that the environment variable is not present Ask the user whether they want to provide an API key Do not attempt authenticated API calls until a token is available Avoid commands such as these because they would expose secrets: Base URL Base URL: https://api.monologue.to API shape: read-only Notes API Data format: JSON Timestamps: ISO 8601 date-time strings Request Pattern For all requests: If structured output is useful, pipe the response to jq. Endpoints List notes GET /v1/public-api/notes Returns a page of notes for the authenticated user. …
