# Notes and checklists you talk to

> Free-form notes and markdown checklists that you create and edit by saying so. Notes link to tasks, files and each other.

A note is where anything that is not an action goes: a thought, a recipe, the wifi password at the cabin, a running list. You say it, it is saved; you ask for it later, it comes back.

## Checklists

“Add milk to the grocery list” finds the right note and appends a line. “Tick off bread” flips its checkbox. The whole list is one markdown document you can also edit by hand.

## Linked, not filed

Notes carry tags and wiki links to tasks, files, automations and other notes. A meeting note links to the tasks that came out of it; a project note embeds the automation that reports on it. Search covers titles, bodies and tags, and links show up as backlinks on the target.

## In the app

The Notes tab lists cards with title, snippet and tags. Opening a note gives you the editor, the rendered preview, backlinks, and embedded automations showing their last run.
