I've not been able to find a way to add a secure note to a keychain programmatically. SecItemClass in SecKeyChainItem.h gives no item class for secure notes, which makes me wonder if they're not actually "in" the keychain but stored somewhere on disk, encrypted with the keychain password (or something). Does anyone know? I can't find anything with a web search.


Add a Secure Note to your keychain manually. It should have a distinctive name. Then use command line:

security dump-keychain login.keychain

and look for your distinctive name.  Also see 'man security'.
