note_history

The history of a note

Reads only

Description

What the model reads, word for word:

Shows a note’s history: its past versions and what changed between them.

Parameters

Name Type Required Description
path string yes The note, relative to the vault root, for example “projects/apollo/plan.md”. A note that was moved or deleted still has its history under the path it had last.
since string Only commits from this day on, as YYYY-MM-DD. With diff, the change since the start of this day. Matches ^\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2}$.
diff boolean Also give what changed in the note since the start of the day in since, as a unified diff, uncommitted changes included. Needs since. Default false.
at string Give the note as it was right after this commit, instead of the list: to see or recover an earlier version. The commit must be one that changed the note; ask without at to list them. Not together with since or diff. Matches ^[0-9a-f]{7,40}$.
blame boolean Instead of the list: who last changed each line of the note as it is now, in which commit and when. Narrow it with from_line and to_line. Not together with since, diff or at. Default false.
from_line integer With diff, at or blame: the first line of the text to give, counting from 1. At least 1.
to_line integer With diff, at or blame: the last line to give. At least 1.
limit integer How many commits to list on this page. At least 1. At most 100. Default 20.
offset integer How many commits to skip, newest first. An answer with more after it names the next offset. Default 0.
repo "handbook" | "projects" yes The repository this call works in. One of the repositories the person can read; the values above are Acme’s.

Result

As structuredContent and, the same, as a text block.
