Item Notes lets you attach private, persistent notes to RuneScape items and maintain a lightweight local loan ledger. Notes follow the canonical item across inventory, bank, equipment, Grand Exchange, and other item interfaces.
- Add or edit a note by holding Shift and right-clicking an item.
- See saved notes in item hover tooltips and after examining the item.
- Customize the
Note:label and note text with independent color pickers or hex codes. - Add
@usernameto a note to create an active entry in the Item Loan Ledger. - Record the local date and time when a borrower is tagged.
- Mark loans as returned while preserving the remaining note text.
- Share notes between noted/unnoted and dose/charge variants through canonical item IDs.
- Store all data privately in the local RuneLite configuration profile.
- Hold Shift and right-click an item.
- Choose Add Note or Edit Note.
- Enter up to 256 characters and press Enter.
- To track a loan, include a tag such as
@Quickstart has a shrimp. - For RuneScape names containing spaces, use underscores:
@Clan_Mateis displayed as@Clan Matein the ledger. - Open the Item Notes sidebar to review active loans or mark one returned.
Leaving the editor blank removes the note. Removing the @username tag removes the active loan record.

Item Notes is intentionally local-only. It performs no network requests, does not inspect or publish clan rosters, does not verify tagged usernames, and does not send or modify game chat. A username in a note is private text entered by the user, not crowdsourced player data.
The loan ledger is a personal recordkeeping aid. Quantities, due dates, and loan terms are free-form note text, and the plugin does not verify ownership or enforce agreements.
