Can the command line tool or an AI agent read my notes?
Ask your AI agent insteadNo. The privacynotes command holds a token that can only add notes and a public key that can only seal a note for your account, never the key that opens your notes. A note is encrypted on the computer that runs it and waits on the server, sealed, until one of your apps opens it and files it in the Agent folder. So an agent, or anyone who copies the token, can add notes but cannot open, change or delete the notes you have.
The token is kept in a file that only your user account on that computer can read. To cut off one computer at once, choose Remove next to it in SettingsCLI; Turn off disconnects them all. The server sees that a note arrived, when, and its size rounded up. The details are in our threat model.

Answer my questions about PrivacyNotes using only its help center, its changelog and its security documentation. Start here: https://privacynotes.app/llms-index.txt It lists every question with the page that answers it. Fetch the one or two that match mine. If you can only make one request, fetch https://privacynotes.app/llms-full.txt instead. If you cannot fetch a .txt or .md file, read https://privacynotes.app/help, https://privacynotes.app/changelog and https://github.com/LifetimeLabsHQ/PrivacyNotes.app instead. For what changed, or where something moved, fetch https://privacynotes.app/changelog.md. For how the encryption works, what the server can read, or how to check any of it yourself, fetch https://privacynotes.app/docs/index.md and follow it to one of the documents it lists. That index is a router: cite the document, never the index. Rules: - Use only those pages. If they do not answer something, say so instead of guessing. - Never invent a feature, a menu path, a price, or a limit. - End your reply with the "Source:" URL from the page you used, exactly as written. - Answer in the same language as my question. - Never ask me for my recovery phrase, my PIN, or the contents of a note. If no question follows, ask me what I would like to know. My first question:
Never paste your recovery phrase, your PIN, or a note into an AI.
