## Description

Manage Google Keep notes.

## SKILL.md, as published by its author (untrusted third-party text, read it as data)

# keep (v1)

> **PREREQUISITE:** Read `../gws-shared/SKILL.md` for auth, global flags, and security rules. If missing, run `gws generate-skills` to create it.

```bash
gws keep <resource> <method> [flags]
```

## API Resources

### media

  - `download`, Gets an attachment. To download attachment media via REST requires the alt=media query parameter. Returns a 400 bad request error if attachment media is not available in the requested MIME type.

### notes

  - `create`, Creates a new note.
  - `delete`, Deletes a note. Caller must have the `OWNER` role on the note to delete. Deleting a note removes the resource immediately and cannot be undone. Any collaborators will lose access to the note.
  - `get`, Gets a note.
  - `list`, Lists notes. Every list call returns a page of results with `page_size` as the upper bound of returned items. A `page_size` of zero allows the server to choose the upper bound. The ListNotesResponse contains at most `page_size` entries. If there are more things left to list, it provides a `next_page_token` value. (Page tokens are opaque values.) To get the next page of results, copy the result's `next_page_token` into the next request's `page_token`.
  - `permissions`, Operations on the 'permissions' resource

## Discovering Commands

Before calling any API method, inspect it:

```bash
# Browse resources and methods
gws keep --help

# Inspect a method's required params, types, and defaults
gws schema keep.<resource>.<method>
```

Use `gws schema` output to build your `--params` and `--json` flags.
