I have a workflow that uses a file action, that passes the file to a "Run Script" action. The run script generates XML output for feedback to show in Alfred:
 
<?xml version="1.0"?><items><item uid="metadata-completename" arg="/Users/jack/Downloaded Media/shiveringhope07.jpeg" type="file" valid="yes"><title>Complete name</title><subtitle>/Users/jack/Downloaded Media/shiveringhope07.jpeg</subtitle></item><item uid="metadata-format" arg="JPEG" type="file" valid="yes"><title>Format</title><subtitle>JPEG</subtitle></item><item uid="metadata-filesize" arg="33.1 KiB" type="file" valid="yes"><title>File size</title><subtitle>33.1 KiB</subtitle></item><item uid="metadata-width" arg="650 pixels" type="file" valid="yes"><title>Width</title><subtitle>650 pixels</subtitle></item><item uid="metadata-height" arg="300 pixels" type="file" valid="yes"><title>Height</title><subtitle>300 pixels</subtitle></item></items> However, this feedback never shows.

Colors v2.0.0
 
Get it from Packal (Recommended)
 
Quick Summary:
This workflow can process and convert all CSS color formats and several Objective-C formats, namely NSColor (calibrated and device) and UIColor. It also provides an interface to the OS X color panel for easier color manipulations.
 
It's written in native code (i.e. it's really fast).

This creates a new reminder in Reminders.app
Download the latest version, for Alfred v3+ and macOS 10.12+
For older versions, go here.
Usage
To use, just type r <some text> into Alfred.
For example, r check out some of Alfred's other workflows will create a new reminder called "check out some of Alfred's other workflows".
You can also include times and dates in the text and have Alfred set a reminder for that particular time.
r this will capture the current application and turn it into a reminder.
r help will show some built-in examples.

Dates
To be reminded at a specific date/time, simply type a date into the command, for example:
r today release the hamsters into the wild r tomorrow bring about financial ruin upon my enemies r in 5 minutes drop everything r in 2 hours laugh out loud r on 24/12/13 forget everything I know about things in movies r on 12 June 15 come up with some interesting ideas r on 31-12-99 23:22 panic about the millennium bug r at 2pm wait for nothing in particular r next thursday at 15.30 ask some difficult questions
Priority
To set the priority of the reminder, either use exclamation marks right at the start or end of the command (! for low priority, !! for medium priority, !!! for high priority), or type the priority right at the end of the command (these can also be abbreviated, for example mp or p lo). For example:
r !!! in 2 weeks an important meeting r thursday have a banana medium priority r decide what to have for lunch !lo r make a turkey sandwich p3 Lists
To choose a list to use on a per-reminder basis, type in <list name> list right at the end of the command, for example r Get Santa outfit !2 in Christmas list. If a matching list can't be found, you won't be able to action the command.
In all other cases, the default Reminders list will be used (typically the first one). If you prefer, you can edit the defaultList variable within the workflow's Arg and Vars node (note that you'll have to edit this each time you upgrade the workflow however).
Apps
Get reminded about the app you're using, for example the selected file in Finder, or the current tab in Chrome or Safari.
To create a reminder about the active app, simply type r this. Or keep typing to set a date, priority or a custom title, for example r this drop some sick beats on Friday !!!.
The following apps are currently supported:
Adobe Acrobat (Pro/DX) Chromium Contacts Finder FoldingText Google Chrome Google Chrome Canary Mail Mailplane 3 Microsoft PowerPoint Microsoft Word Safari TextEdit TextMate Vienna WebKit Apps can be added on request. Just raise an issue with the app you use. As long as it's freely available and has AppleScript support, it can be added.
Getting help
r help will display the above examples
All sorts of combinations are possible!
Configuration
If you want to change the default reminder list, edit the variables component at the top of the workflow, otherwise it will just use the first one (unless you use "in Y list" at the end).
External Trigger
To call the workflow as an external trigger, use applescript such as
tell application "Alfred 3" to run trigger "remind" in workflow "com.surrealroad.alfred-reminder" with argument "something tomorrow at 5pm"

Feedback
By far the best way to give me feedback is to submit an issue on GitHub. Alternatively, just reply to this post.

Quick & dirty:
 
on alfred_script(q)     tell application "Notes"         tell first account             make new note at folder "Notes" with properties {name:q, body:q}         end tell     end tell end alfred_script    
created a workflow: http://www.alfredforum.com/topic/1009-add-new-note/

This just creates a new note in notes.app. To keep it simple, it just uses the first folder in the first account it finds. You can change this behaviour by editing providing the respective names in the "properties" in the applescript.
 
Usage
 
To search existing notes, type "n search_term" into Alfred. E.g. "n something I wrote yesterday" (not working in macOS High Sierra)
To create a new note, just type "n note_text" into Alfred. E.g. "n something very important I will probably forget"
To create a note from the clipboard, type "nclip optional_note_name"
Hold option to open the note in a new window after creating it.
 

 
iCloud Notes on OS 10.11+
 
As of Mac OS El Capitan, you are given the option to upgrade iCloud notes accounts. Once you do this, with the normal Notes workflow you'll start seeing duplicate lines in notes. The reason for this is that prior to the upgrade the "Title" of the note and the "Body" of the note were displayed separately. After the upgrade, Notes assumes the title is *not* also included in the body, which is different behaviour, and led to the apparent duplication.
 
Sadly there's no reliable way for the workflow to detect whether your Notes account has been upgraded or not, so fixing it would entail breaking it on installs that have not undergone this upgrade. Therefore I have opted to make a separate Workflow which is to be used by anyone who has upgraded to the new iCloud version of Notes. You will find that download link below.
 
Changelog:
Tuesday, 5th July 2016 - Fixed a regression where "nclip" would not work if a custom title was provided
Thursday, 30 June 2016 – Compatibility for users who did not previously have Alfred v2 installed
Wednesday, 27 January 2016 – Fixed an issue with notes from clipboard not working; existing iCloud notes are now searched too (thanks, Vero!)
Friday, 16 October 2015 – Added a new Workflow for iCloud upgraded notes in OS 10.11+ (Thanks Nikita!)
Monday, 27 October 2014 – workaround for apple bug #18734006 on OS 10.10
Monday, 13 October 2014 – Hold option to open note window after creation
Tuesday, 17 September 2013 – Updated q_workflow module to latest version
Thursday, 18 April 2013 – Only first line is used as a title when using "nclip" with no arguments
Sunday, 7 April 2013 – Properly escape illegal characters in query
Friday, 5 April 2013 – Fixed an issue where a temporary file was getting written to the wrong place, sorry about that! Thursday, 4 April 2013 – Combined into single workflow; renamed to "Notes"; fixed an issue with clip keyword; nclip now pastes HTML if possible; workflow will notify if updates are available Saturday, 16 March 2013 – First version

Alfred v2
It's not currently known whether the latest release will be backward-compatible with Alfred v2.
If you are using Mac OS 10.11+ and have "upgraded" your iCloud notes, you should use this workflow:
Notes for Alfred v2 (iCloud)
 
In all other cases, this is the one to use:

Works like a charm! Thanks, "Surreal." This is perfect for creating a quick note, like when you're on the phone and someone wants to quickly give you a phone number or snippet of information that you'll want on all your iDevices. Thanks so much!

Please make it easier to share workflows.
There are too many barriers. Look what I have to do:
Export the workflow Generate a screenshot Register on the forums Host the screenshot somewhere Host the file somewhere Write a post It seems absurd to have to do steps 4 & 5 in particular.
