💖 NAME 💖

hypothesis-client annotations create — bestie, this is the glow-up moment where you create a new annotation (also, real talk, there's a TODO: add Target somehow chillin' in here, so like… noted 📝)

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

hypothesis-client annotations create [OPTIONS] [URI]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Create a new annotation (and yes, the official word is TODO: add Target somehow — it's giving unfinished business, we love an honest manpage 💅)

🎀 Arguments:

  • [URI] — the URI that this annotation is attached to.

It can be a URL (aka a web page address, you know the vibe 🌐) or a URN representing another kind of resource — like a DOI (Digital Object Identifier) or a PDF fingerprint. So many options, so little time 💖

[default: ]

👑 OPTIONS 👑

  • --text <TEXT> — the annotation text / comment given by user. That's the actual words, okay?

⚠️ This is NOT the selected text on the web-page. Like, do not confuse them, they are two completely different girls. [default: ]

  • --tags <TAGS> — tags attached to the annotation. Label it, categorize it, slay it 🏷️
  • --group <GROUP> — the unique identifier for the annotation's group.

Important lore: if an annotation is a reply to another annotation (see references), this field will be ignored ??? replies belong to the same group as their parent annotations. Like the group is inherited, no takebacks 🫶

[default: ]

  • --references <REFERENCES> — annotation IDs for any annotations this annotation references (e.g. is a reply to). It's the "hey I'm responding to this one" field 🔥
  • -o, --file <FILE> — write created annotation to this file in JSON format. Saving your work? Main character energy, periodt 💾
  • -h, --help — print help (see a summary with '-h'). i.e. -h is the quick lil recap, and this one is the full dissertation. Choose your fighter 🧚
Reminder bestie: the [default: ] fields are literally empty by default, no cap. Empty defaults in the group chat, iconic 🎀

Okay that's the whole page! This came from hypothesis-client annotations ... and it's dated August 2025 🌸 Stay hydrated, read your manpages, and go create some annotations 💜
