/note-snippet

Two Modes

Mode 1: File Reference

Point to a file with optional line range:

/note-snippet src/auth.swift:10-25

This reads the file, extracts lines 10-25, detects the language from the file extension, and adds a source citation to the note.

Mode 2: Inline Code

Paste code directly:

/note-snippet const token = jwt.sign(payload, secret, { expiresIn: '1h' })

Language is detected from syntax patterns — imports, brackets, keywords, operators.

Annotations

Add context after the -- separator:

/note-snippet src/auth.ts:5-20 -- JWT validation logic for the middleware refactor

The annotation appears below the code block in the note, providing context for why you saved this snippet.

Language Detection

Source	Detection Method
File reference	File extension (.ts, .py, .swift, etc.)
Inline code	Syntax analysis (imports, keywords, operators)

Smart Titles

AI generates a descriptive title (max 6 words) by analyzing the code:

• JWT Token Validation for auth code
• React Auth Hook for a custom hook
• Docker Compose Config for infrastructure

Limits

• Maximum ~50 lines per snippet
• Longer snippets are truncated with a note indicating the full length
• For larger code sections, consider saving to a file instead
