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 MONOLOGUE_API_KEY as the bearer token.

• Required auth header: Authorization: Bearer $MONOLOGUE_API_KEY
• 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 [ -z "${MONOLOGUE_API_KEY:-}" ]; then
  echo "MONOLOGUE_API_KEY is not set"
fi

If MONOLOGUE_API_KEY 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:

echo "$MONOLOGUE_API_KEY"
env | grep MONOLOGUE_API_KEY
set | grep MONOLOGUE_API_KEY

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:

curl -sS \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $MONOLOGUE_API_KEY" \
  "https://api.monologue.to/..."

If structured output is useful, pipe the response to jq.
