What is nb?
nb is a powerful command-line interface and local web tool designed for note-taking, bookmarking, and archiving. By leveraging plain text data storage and Git-backed versioning, it provides developers with a robust environment for managing information without the overhead of proprietary formats. This skill integrates seamlessly with Openclaw Skills to allow AI agents to capture, organize, and retrieve information efficiently.
At its core, the tool supports wiki-style linking, multi-notebook organization, and powerful search capabilities. Whether you are managing code snippets, research notes, or long-form documentation, it ensures your data remains portable and version-controlled. By utilizing this skill within the Openclaw Skills ecosystem, users can automate their knowledge workflows directly from their terminal or AI coding environment.
nb Use Cases
- Capture quick thoughts, code snippets, or research findings directly from the CLI.
- Manage project-specific todos and task lists with due dates and completion tracking.
- Archive web bookmarks with comments and tags for later reference.
- Maintain multiple isolated notebooks for personal, professional, and project-specific use.
- Synchronize knowledge bases across multiple machines using Git remotes.
How nb Works
- The skill interacts with the nb CLI to initialize and manage local notebooks stored as Markdown files.
- Users add notes, bookmarks, or todos using standardized command structures which are automatically indexed.
- Every change triggers a Git commit, ensuring a complete version history of all knowledge entries.
- Advanced search and filtering allow for rapid retrieval of information across one or all notebooks.
- Synchronization commands push or pull data from remote repositories to keep knowledge bases updated across environments.
nb Setup
Ensure the nb CLI is installed on your system (Darwin or Linux). Then, configure your notebooks using the following commands:
# List available notebooks
nb notebooks
# Create a new notebook to start organizing
nb notebooks add my-knowledge-base
# Set the current active notebook
nb use my-knowledge-base
nb Data Schema & Taxonomy
