+
+# Bear Notes
+
+Use `grizzly` to create, read, and manage notes in Bear on macOS.
+
+Requirements
+- Bear app installed and running
+- For write operations, a Bear app token (stored in `~/.config/grizzly/token`)
+
+## Getting a Bear Token
+
+For operations that modify notes (add-text, etc.), you need an authentication token:
+1. Open Bear → Help → API Token → Copy Token
+2. Save it: `echo "YOUR_TOKEN" > ~/.config/grizzly/token`
+
+## Common Commands
+
+Create a note
+```bash
+echo "Note content here" | grizzly create --title "My Note" --tag work
+grizzly create --title "Quick Note" --tag inbox < /dev/null
+```
+
+Open/read a note by ID
+```bash
+grizzly open-note --id "NOTE_ID" --enable-callback --json
+```
+
+Append text to a note
+```bash
+echo "Additional content" | grizzly add-text --id "NOTE_ID" --mode append --token-file ~/.config/grizzly/token
+```
+
+List all tags
+```bash
+grizzly tags --enable-callback --json
+```
+
+Search notes (via open-tag)
+```bash
+grizzly open-tag --name "work" --enable-callback --json
+```
+
+## Options
+
+Common flags:
+- `--dry-run` — Preview the URL without executing
+- `--print-url` — Show the x-callback-url
+- `--enable-callback` — Wait for Bear's response (needed for reading data)
+- `--json` — Output as JSON (when using callbacks)
+- `--token-file PATH` — Path to Bear API token file
+
+## Configuration
+
+Grizzly reads config from (in priority order):
+1. CLI flags
+2. Environment variables (`GRIZZLY_TOKEN_FILE`, `GRIZZLY_CALLBACK_URL`, `GRIZZLY_TIMEOUT`)
+3. `.grizzly.toml` in current directory
+4. `~/.config/grizzly/config.toml`
+
+Example `~/.config/grizzly/config.toml`:
+```toml
+token_file = "~/.config/grizzly/token"
+enable_callback = true
+```
+
+## Notes
+
+- Bear must be running for commands to work
+- Note IDs are Bear's internal identifiers (visible in note info or via callbacks)
+- Use `--enable-callback` when you need to read data back from Bear
+- Write operations require a valid token
