Short answer

How can I get my Bear notes into my AI chat?

Your AI uses Bear tools to locate specific notes and read their contents. You can then ask your agent to use those snippets to write new code or debug existing files. This setup turns your Bear notes into an instant knowledge base for your AI.

Where your snippets land.

The payoff of your snippets.

The AI moves data from your Bear notes to wherever you are working.

CODE

Direct injection

The AI finds a snippet and places it into your active editor or chat. You get the code without manual copying.

CONTEXT

Technical reference

Your agent reads a note to understand a specific logic pattern. It uses that context to answer your technical questions.

DRAFT

New implementations

The AI pulls an old function from Bear to help draft a new feature. It uses the existing logic as a template.

HUMAN

Manual review

The AI identifies a note that needs updating. You decide if the snippet is still relevant before using it.

The workflow

What your AI does when you ask for a snippet.

The AI handles the searching and reading so you don't have to switch apps.

  2. Read the content

    Once the right note is found, the AI pulls the full text and code blocks into its context.

    open_note

  3. Apply the logic

    The AI uses the retrieved code to answer your prompt or suggest a fix in your workspace.
