Field notes
The page describes a keyboard-first capture flow that keeps the user in the app they were already using, with separate shortcuts for opening the note strip and the bowl. Its demo shows a 20-note capacity and controls for copying or dismissing notes; it also describes dragging notes into prompts, terminals, or messages. Speech input and selected-text capture through macOS Services are presented as additional ways to add a note.
