## Description

Query Google NotebookLM notebooks for source-grounded, citation-backed answers from user-uploaded documents. Manages notebook library, handles Google authentication, and supports smart discovery. Works standalone via /blog notebooklm or internally from blog-write and blog-researcher for source-grounded research context. Falls back gracefully when not configured. Use when user says "notebooklm", "notebook", "query notebook", "ask notebook", "notebook research", "source grounded research", "document query", "notebook library".

# Blog NotebookLM: Source-Grounded Research from Your Documents

Query Google NotebookLM notebooks directly from Claude Code for citation-backed
answers from Gemini. Each question opens a headless browser session, retrieves
the answer from your uploaded documents, and closes. Responses are
source-grounded model answers, not proof of truth: uploaded documents may be
primary or secondary, and the answer can still omit context.

Answers satisfy the FLOW evidence triple only when the returned citation includes
a verifiable underlying source URL plus a publication or retrieval date. Use the
underlying source title as the inline citation. Do not cite the private NotebookLM
URL as the bibliography entry for public content.

## Quick Reference

| Command | What it does |
|---------|-------------|
| `/blog notebooklm ask <question>` | Query a notebook for source-grounded answers |
| `/blog notebooklm discover <url>` | Smart-discover notebook content before cataloging |
| `/blog notebooklm library list` | List all notebooks in library |
| `/blog notebooklm library add <url>` | Add a notebook to library |
| `/blog notebooklm library search <query>` | Search notebooks by keyword |
| `/blog notebooklm library remove <id>` | Remove a notebook from library |
| `/blog notebooklm setup` | One-time Google authentication (browser visible) |
| `/blog notebooklm status` | Check authentication status |

## Prerequisites

- Google account with NotebookLM access
- Python 3.11+ (venv managed automatically by `run.py`)
- Google Chrome (installed automatically on first run via Patchright)
- One-time authentication setup (interactive Google login in visible browser)

## Always Use run.py Wrapper

**NEVER call scripts directly. ALWAYS use `python3 scripts/run.py [script]`:**

```bash
# CORRECT:
python3 scripts/run.py auth_manager.py status
python3 scripts/run.py ask_question.py --question "..."
