# NotebookLM Skill Usage Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
Advanced patterns for using the NotebookLM skill effectively.
|
||||
|
||||
## Critical: Always Use run.py
|
||||
|
||||
**Every command must use the run.py wrapper:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# ✅ CORRECT:
|
||||
python scripts/run.py auth_manager.py status
|
||||
python scripts/run.py ask_question.py --question "..."
|
||||
|
||||
# ❌ WRONG:
|
||||
python scripts/auth_manager.py status # Will fail!
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Pattern 1: Initial Setup
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# 1. Check authentication (using run.py!)
|
||||
python scripts/run.py auth_manager.py status
|
||||
|
||||
# 2. If not authenticated, setup (Browser MUST be visible!)
|
||||
python scripts/run.py auth_manager.py setup
|
||||
# Tell user: "Please log in to Google in the browser window"
|
||||
|
||||
# 3. Add first notebook - ASK USER FOR DETAILS FIRST!
|
||||
# Ask: "What does this notebook contain?"
|
||||
# Ask: "What topics should I tag it with?"
|
||||
python scripts/run.py notebook_manager.py add \
|
||||
--url "https://notebooklm.google.com/notebook/..." \
|
||||
--name "User provided name" \
|
||||
--description "User provided description" \ # NEVER GUESS!
|
||||
--topics "user,provided,topics" # NEVER GUESS!
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Critical Notes:**
|
||||
- Virtual environment created automatically by run.py
|
||||
- Browser MUST be visible for authentication
|
||||
- ALWAYS discover content via query OR ask user for notebook metadata
|
||||
|
||||
## Pattern 2: Adding Notebooks (Smart Discovery!)
|
||||
|
||||
**When user shares a NotebookLM URL:**
|
||||
|
||||
**OPTION A: Smart Discovery (Recommended)**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# 1. Query the notebook to discover its content
|
||||
python scripts/run.py ask_question.py \
|
||||
--question "What is the content of this notebook? What topics are covered? Provide a complete overview briefly and concisely" \
|
||||
--notebook-url "[URL]"
|
||||
|
||||
# 2. Use discovered info to add it
|
||||
python scripts/run.py notebook_manager.py add \
|
||||
--url "[URL]" \
|
||||
--name "[Based on content]" \
|
||||
--description "[From discovery]" \
|
||||
--topics "[Extracted topics]"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**OPTION B: Ask User (Fallback)**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# If discovery fails, ask user:
|
||||
"What does this notebook contain?"
|
||||
"What topics does it cover?"
|
||||
|
||||
# Then add with user-provided info:
|
||||
python scripts/run.py notebook_manager.py add \
|
||||
--url "[URL]" \
|
||||
--name "[User's answer]" \
|
||||
--description "[User's description]" \
|
||||
--topics "[User's topics]"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**NEVER:**
|
||||
- Guess what's in a notebook
|
||||
- Use generic descriptions
|
||||
- Skip discovering content
|
||||
|
||||
## Pattern 3: Daily Research Workflow
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check library
|
||||
python scripts/run.py notebook_manager.py list
|
||||
|
||||
# Research with comprehensive questions
|
||||
python scripts/run.py ask_question.py \
|
||||
--question "Detailed question with all context" \
|
||||
--notebook-id notebook-id
|
||||
|
||||
# Follow-up when you see "Is that ALL you need to know?"
|
||||
python scripts/run.py ask_question.py \
|
||||
--question "Follow-up question with previous context"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Pattern 4: Follow-Up Questions (CRITICAL!)
|
||||
|
||||
When NotebookLM responds with "EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: Is that ALL you need to know?":
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# 1. STOP - Don't respond to user yet
|
||||
# 2. ANALYZE - Is answer complete?
|
||||
# 3. If gaps exist, ask follow-up:
|
||||
python scripts/run.py ask_question.py \
|
||||
--question "Specific follow-up with context from previous answer"
|
||||
|
||||
# 4. Repeat until complete
|
||||
# 5. Only then synthesize and respond to user
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Pattern 5: Multi-Notebook Research
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# Query different notebooks for comparison
|
||||
python scripts/run.py notebook_manager.py activate --id notebook-1
|
||||
python scripts/run.py ask_question.py --question "Question"
|
||||
|
||||
python scripts/run.py notebook_manager.py activate --id notebook-2
|
||||
python scripts/run.py ask_question.py --question "Same question"
|
||||
|
||||
# Compare and synthesize answers
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Pattern 6: Error Recovery
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# If authentication fails
|
||||
python scripts/run.py auth_manager.py status
|
||||
python scripts/run.py auth_manager.py reauth # Browser visible!
|
||||
|
||||
# If browser crashes
|
||||
python scripts/run.py cleanup_manager.py --preserve-library
|
||||
python scripts/run.py auth_manager.py setup # Browser visible!
|
||||
|
||||
# If rate limited
|
||||
# Wait or switch accounts
|
||||
python scripts/run.py auth_manager.py reauth # Login with different account
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Pattern 7: Batch Processing
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
#!/bin/bash
|
||||
NOTEBOOK_ID="notebook-id"
|
||||
QUESTIONS=(
|
||||
"First comprehensive question"
|
||||
"Second comprehensive question"
|
||||
"Third comprehensive question"
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
for question in "${QUESTIONS[@]}"; do
|
||||
echo "Asking: $question"
|
||||
python scripts/run.py ask_question.py \
|
||||
--question "$question" \
|
||||
--notebook-id "$NOTEBOOK_ID"
|
||||
sleep 2 # Avoid rate limits
|
||||
done
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Pattern 8: Automated Research Script
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
#!/usr/bin/env python
|
||||
import subprocess
|
||||
|
||||
def research_topic(topic, notebook_id):
|
||||
# Comprehensive question
|
||||
question = f"""
|
||||
Explain {topic} in detail:
|
||||
1. Core concepts
|
||||
2. Implementation details
|
||||
3. Best practices
|
||||
4. Common pitfalls
|
||||
5. Examples
|
||||
"""
|
||||
|
||||
result = subprocess.run([
|
||||
"python", "scripts/run.py", "ask_question.py",
|
||||
"--question", question,
|
||||
"--notebook-id", notebook_id
|
||||
], capture_output=True, text=True)
|
||||
|
||||
return result.stdout
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Pattern 9: Notebook Organization
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# Organize by domain - with proper metadata
|
||||
# ALWAYS ask user for descriptions!
|
||||
|
||||
# Backend notebooks
|
||||
add_notebook("Backend API", "Complete API documentation", "api,rest,backend")
|
||||
add_notebook("Database", "Schema and queries", "database,sql,backend")
|
||||
|
||||
# Frontend notebooks
|
||||
add_notebook("React Docs", "React framework documentation", "react,frontend")
|
||||
add_notebook("CSS Framework", "Styling documentation", "css,styling,frontend")
|
||||
|
||||
# Search by domain
|
||||
python scripts/run.py notebook_manager.py search --query "backend"
|
||||
python scripts/run.py notebook_manager.py search --query "frontend"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Pattern 10: Integration with Development
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# Query documentation during development
|
||||
def check_api_usage(api_endpoint):
|
||||
result = subprocess.run([
|
||||
"python", "scripts/run.py", "ask_question.py",
|
||||
"--question", f"Parameters and response format for {api_endpoint}",
|
||||
"--notebook-id", "api-docs"
|
||||
], capture_output=True, text=True)
|
||||
|
||||
# If follow-up needed
|
||||
if "Is that ALL you need" in result.stdout:
|
||||
# Ask for examples
|
||||
follow_up = subprocess.run([
|
||||
"python", "scripts/run.py", "ask_question.py",
|
||||
"--question", f"Show code examples for {api_endpoint}",
|
||||
"--notebook-id", "api-docs"
|
||||
], capture_output=True, text=True)
|
||||
|
||||
return combine_answers(result.stdout, follow_up.stdout)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Best Practices
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Question Formulation
|
||||
- Be specific and comprehensive
|
||||
- Include all context in each question
|
||||
- Request structured responses
|
||||
- Ask for examples when needed
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Notebook Management
|
||||
- **ALWAYS ask user for metadata**
|
||||
- Use descriptive names
|
||||
- Add comprehensive topics
|
||||
- Keep URLs current
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Performance
|
||||
- Batch related questions
|
||||
- Use parallel processing for different notebooks
|
||||
- Monitor rate limits (50/day)
|
||||
- Switch accounts if needed
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Error Handling
|
||||
- Always use run.py to prevent venv issues
|
||||
- Check auth before operations
|
||||
- Implement retry logic
|
||||
- Have fallback notebooks ready
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Security
|
||||
- Use dedicated Google account
|
||||
- Never commit data/ directory
|
||||
- Regularly refresh auth
|
||||
- Track all access
|
||||
|
||||
## Common Workflows for Claude
|
||||
|
||||
### Workflow 1: User Sends NotebookLM URL
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# 1. Detect URL in message
|
||||
if "notebooklm.google.com" in user_message:
|
||||
url = extract_url(user_message)
|
||||
|
||||
# 2. Check if in library
|
||||
notebooks = run("notebook_manager.py list")
|
||||
|
||||
if url not in notebooks:
|
||||
# 3. ASK USER FOR METADATA (CRITICAL!)
|
||||
name = ask_user("What should I call this notebook?")
|
||||
description = ask_user("What does this notebook contain?")
|
||||
topics = ask_user("What topics does it cover?")
|
||||
|
||||
# 4. Add with user-provided info
|
||||
run(f"notebook_manager.py add --url {url} --name '{name}' --description '{description}' --topics '{topics}'")
|
||||
|
||||
# 5. Use the notebook
|
||||
answer = run(f"ask_question.py --question '{user_question}'")
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Workflow 2: Research Task
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# 1. Understand task
|
||||
task = "Implement feature X"
|
||||
|
||||
# 2. Formulate comprehensive questions
|
||||
questions = [
|
||||
"Complete implementation guide for X",
|
||||
"Error handling for X",
|
||||
"Performance considerations for X"
|
||||
]
|
||||
|
||||
# 3. Query with follow-ups
|
||||
for q in questions:
|
||||
answer = run(f"ask_question.py --question '{q}'")
|
||||
|
||||
# Check if follow-up needed
|
||||
if "Is that ALL you need" in answer:
|
||||
# Ask more specific question
|
||||
follow_up = run(f"ask_question.py --question 'Specific detail about {q}'")
|
||||
|
||||
# 4. Synthesize and implement
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Tips and Tricks
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Always use run.py** - Prevents all venv issues
|
||||
2. **Ask for metadata** - Never guess notebook contents
|
||||
3. **Use verbose questions** - Include all context
|
||||
4. **Follow up automatically** - When you see the prompt
|
||||
5. **Monitor rate limits** - 50 queries per day
|
||||
6. **Batch operations** - Group related queries
|
||||
7. **Export important answers** - Save locally
|
||||
8. **Version control notebooks** - Track changes
|
||||
9. **Test auth regularly** - Before important tasks
|
||||
10. **Document everything** - Keep notes on notebooks
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Reference
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Always use run.py!
|
||||
python scripts/run.py [script].py [args]
|
||||
|
||||
# Common operations
|
||||
run.py auth_manager.py status # Check auth
|
||||
run.py auth_manager.py setup # Login (browser visible!)
|
||||
run.py notebook_manager.py list # List notebooks
|
||||
run.py notebook_manager.py add ... # Add (ask user for metadata!)
|
||||
run.py ask_question.py --question ... # Query
|
||||
run.py cleanup_manager.py ... # Clean up
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Remember:** When in doubt, use run.py and ask the user for notebook details!
