NotebookLM Skill

Query NotebookLM notebooks and manage notebooks/sources via Playwright browser automation.

All commands run from the skill directory. All scripts output JSON to stdout and exit 1 on error. Use --help on any script for full flag reference.

Workflow

1. Authenticate: python scripts/auth_manager.py setup --profile <name>
2. Register notebook: python scripts/notebook_manager.py add --url <url> --name <name> --description <desc> --topics <topics>
3. Ask questions: python scripts/ask_question.py --question "..." --notebook-id <id>
4. Manage sources: python scripts/remote_manager.py add-source|sync-sources ...

Key Behaviors

• Runs headless by default; use --show-browser for debugging only.
• Persistent Chrome profiles stored at ~/.config/claude/notebooklm-skill/ (override with NOTEBOOKLM_DATA_DIR).
• Hash-based dedupe: file uploads skip unchanged sources automatically.
• --dry-run available on all destructive/bulk operations (create, add-source, delete-source, sync-sources).
