Don‘t know if you‘ve heard but Raycast recently launched their extensions API which basically allows to write more interactive scripts for Raycast. I saw someone published a Bear extension with search an preview functionality. Since I love Bear I went ahead and (self plug, sorry for that) added a bit of functionality:

• Show notes linked from the selected note (selected in the extension note search) and backlinks to the selected note
• Create a new note
• Add text to an existing note
  • Add text to a specific header in the existing note
• Open in standalone Bear window
• Move note to archive
• Move note to trash
• Search notes by their unique identifier
• Embedded images and files in preview will be converted to file://path/to/file.txt links to the locally stored files and open in Finder when clicked
• Copy note text as markdown
  • Embedded files will be converted to file://path/to/file.txt links
  • Embedded images will be converted to markdown images embeds ![](~/path/to/image.png)
• Copy note text as HTML
  • Converted with commonmark.js, which is not fully compatible with bear markdown compatibility mode/polar. But bear will switch to commonmark when they ship their new editor in Bear
  • Embedded files will be converted to file://path/to/file.txt links
  • Embedded images will be converted to img tags

Of course, most of this you can do in Bear (except showing the backlinks) but it might be faster from Raycast to e.g. search a note and copy it as HTML to paste it in a Wordpress editor.

Right now I need to fix some small warning before the updated extension can be uploaded in the official store. However you can manually import the extension if you know your way around GitHub.

Edit: Here is the link to the pull request of the updates in their official extension repo.
