Implementation Reference

• src/index.ts:161-194 (handler)

  Core implementation of the move_to_notes tool: retrieves the reminder, creates a markdown note in Obsidian vault, updates status to 'moved', and returns success message with filename.

    moveToNotes(id: string, additionalNote?: string): { success: boolean; message: string } {
      const reminder = this.reminders.get(id);
      if (!reminder || reminder.status !== 'active') {
        return { success: false, message: 'Reminder not found or already processed' };
      }
      
      // Create note content
      const noteContent = `# Reminder: ${reminder.content}
  
  Created: ${reminder.created}
  Priority: ${reminder.priority}
  ${additionalNote ? `\nNote: ${additionalNote}` : ''}
  
  Moved to notes on: ${new Date().toISOString()}
  `;
      
      // Save to Obsidian vault (or wherever permanent notes go)
      try {
        const obsidianPath = path.join(homedir(), 'Documents/Obsidian/Brain/Reminders');
        if (!fs.existsSync(obsidianPath)) {
          fs.mkdirSync(obsidianPath, { recursive: true });
        }
        
        const filename = `reminder_${new Date().toISOString().split('T')[0]}_${id}.md`;
        fs.writeFileSync(path.join(obsidianPath, filename), noteContent);
        
        reminder.status = 'moved';
        this.saveReminders();
        
        return { success: true, message: `Moved to notes: ${filename}` };
      } catch (e) {
        return { success: false, message: `Error moving to notes: ${e}` };
      }
    }

• src/index.ts:292-309 (schema)

  MCP tool schema definition including name, description, and input schema for move_to_notes.

  {
    name: 'move_to_notes',
    description: 'Move reminder to permanent notes',
    inputSchema: {
      type: 'object',
      properties: {
        id: {
          type: 'string',
          description: 'Reminder ID'
        },
        note: {
          type: 'string',
          description: 'Additional note (optional)'
        }
      },
      required: ['id'],
    },
  },

• src/index.ts:389-395 (registration)

  Registration of the tool handler in the CallToolRequestSchema switch statement, dispatching to the moveToNotes method.

  case 'move_to_notes': {
    const { id, note } = args as { id: string; note?: string };
    const result = reminders.moveToNotes(id, note);
    return {
      content: [{ type: 'text', text: result.message }],
    };
  }
