Siri, Shortcuts & App Intents

Automate your notes and research with four built-in App Intents.

Automate notes, journaling, and research pipelines with four native App Intents built directly into Verso.

The Four App Intents

Verso registers four App Intents with macOS and iOS:

1. Summarize Active Document: Returns an on-device executive summary of the open tab.

2. Append to Note: Appends text or captured URLs to a designated Markdown file in your workspace.

3. Search Workspace: Returns Markdown files matching a keyword or topic query.

4. Extract Open Tasks: Scans Markdown files for unchecked task boxes (- [ ]) and returns them as structured items.

Registered Siri Voice Phrases

Invoke voice commands naturally using Apple Siri:

- 'Hey Siri, summarize my open document in Verso.'

- 'Hey Siri, append thoughts to Daily Notes in Verso.'

- 'Hey Siri, find open tasks in Verso.'

Building macOS Workflows

Because App Intents execute in Verso's sandboxed process, they possess authorized access to your security-scoped folders. You can chain Verso actions inside the macOS Shortcuts app to build automated publishing, daily journaling, and research workflows.
