Anytype Skill

Overview

Claude can manage your Anytype space to create objects, define types, and build a private knowledge base. A local-first, open-source tool for managing all types of information.

Quick Install

curl -sSL https://canifi.com/skills/anytype/install.sh | bash

Or manually:

cp -r skills/anytype ~/.canifi/skills/

Setup

Configure via canifi-env:

# First, ensure canifi-env is installed:
# curl -sSL https://canifi.com/install.sh | bash

canifi-env set ANYTYPE_EMAIL " [email protected] "

Privacy & Authentication

Your credentials, your choice. Canifi LifeOS respects your privacy.

Option 1: Manual Browser Login (Recommended)

If you prefer not to share credentials with Claude Code:

1. Complete the Browser Automation Setup using CDP mode
2. Login to the service manually in the Playwright-controlled Chrome window
3. Claude will use your authenticated session without ever seeing your password

Option 2: Environment Variables

If you're comfortable sharing credentials, you can store them locally:

canifi-env set SERVICE_EMAIL "your-email"
canifi-env set SERVICE_PASSWORD "your-password"

Note: Credentials stored in canifi-env are only accessible locally on your machine and are never transmitted.

• Build sets and collections
• Create templates
• Link objects together
• Use graph view
• Search across content

• Sync across devices

Usage Examples

Example 1: Create Object

User: "Create a Note object about the meeting"
Claude: Creates Note object with meeting content.
        Confirms: "Note created: Meeting Notes"

Example 2: Build Set

User: "Create a set of all my Task objects"
Claude: Creates Set with Task type filter.
        Returns: "Task set created with 15 objects"

Example 3: Define Type

User: "Create a 'Recipe' type with ingredients and instructions relations"
Claude: Creates custom type with relations.
        Confirms: "Recipe type created with 2 relations"

Example 4: Link Objects

User: "Link this project to the client object"
Claude: Creates relation between objects.
        Confirms: "Project linked to Client"

Authentication Flow

1. Claude navigates to Anytype web/app via Playwright MCP
2. Enters ANYTYPE_EMAIL for authentication
3. Handles encryption key if required
4. Maintains session for operations

Object      // Any piece of content
Type        // Template for objects
Relation    // Property/field on objects
Set         // Filtered collection of objects
Collection  // Manual grouping of objects
Template    // Reusable object structure
Graph       // Visual object connections

Error Handling

• Session Expired: Re-authenticate automatically
• Object Not Found: Search with variations, ask user
• Type Error: Check type definition, suggest fix
• Sync Failed: Wait and retry
• Encryption Error: Verify key

Self-Improvement Instructions

2. Suggest updating this skill file with the new approach
3. Include specific type configurations
4. Note useful relation patterns

Notes

• Local-first with E2E encryption
• Open-source and self-hostable
• Object-based data model
• Flexible type system
• Relations for connections
• Graph for visualization
• Sets for filtered views
• Cross-platform apps
