apple_cloud_notes_parser VS macnotesapp

Here's a Python script that takes the JSON output from https://github.com/threeplanetssoftware/apple_cloud_notes_pa... (needs master), and rebuilds Notes in Markdown format, with links, attachments, lists, etc.:

And simpler, standalone JXA script, that outputs HTML, but loses some data, such as links:

I use this https://github.com/threeplanetssoftware/apple_cloud_notes_pa... and it works extremely well.

A brief googling showed that the encryption is on point, but there are password brute-forcing tools out there, such as this: 1, 2. If you have at least a vague idea of what your password was supposed to be, you can use it to build a password dictionary (again, there should be tools to produce passwords based on an initial wordlist and various permutations, like character substitutions), feed it to a tool like the one above, and wait (maybe a year or two, heh).

Very nice reverse engineering work! I wrote a python library and CLI that does something similar but interacts with Notes via Scripting Bridge: https://github.com/RhetTbull/macnotesapp
