notebooklm

Browser automation skill for controlling Google's NotebookLM. Use when the user wants anything done in NotebookLM (e.g., 'open NotebookLM', 'check my [name] notebook', 'ask my notebook about X', 'add [source] to NotebookLM', 'generate a Video Overview from my notebook', 'use NotebookLM Studio'). Handles reading and querying notebooks, adding sources (URLs, text, files, YouTube links, synthesized content), generating Studio outputs (Audio/Video Overviews, Mind Maps, Reports incl. Briefing Doc/Study Guide/FAQ, Flashcards, Quiz, slide decks, infographics — discover the exact set from the live Studio panel; the UI evolves fast), and creating new notebooks. Requires browser automation environment — fails gracefully when unavailable.

Quality

Content

70%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

The body is a well-sequenced, highly actionable browser-automation workflow with strong validation checkpoints and error feedback loops. Its main weaknesses are token inefficiency from repeated Studio-inventory listings and inlined content that duplicates the (currently missing) reference files, plus dangling references to bundle files that are not present.

Suggestions

Dedupe the Studio output inventory: state the full list once (Action 3) and have Q1/Q3 reference it, rather than re-listing it in three additional places.

Move the four full custom-prompt block quotes and the async wait/notify table into their referenced files (references/studio_output_custom_prompts.md, references/async_action_discipline.md) and keep only a one-line pointer inline — and ship those files so the links resolve.

Provide the referenced scripts (action_router.py, custom_prompt_template_generator.py, async_action_classifier.py) in a scripts/ directory, or remove the executable command example and inline references if the scripts are not part of the bundle.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is mostly efficient and actionable, but repeats the Studio inventory across four places (description, Q1 option 3, Q3, Action 3) and inlines four full custom-prompt block quotes plus an async table that are duplicated in the referenced files — 'could be tightened' rather than severely padded, matching the score-3 anchor; score 2 is not warranted because there is no conceptual over-explanation (no 'what is NotebookLM' padding).

3 / 5

Actionability

Provides concrete, executable guidance: numbered per-action steps, specific UI sub-flows ("Add Source → Link → paste URL"), a runnable command ("python3 scripts/async_action_classifier.py --action \"video overview\""), and copy-paste custom prompts — score 4 rather than 5 because the referenced scripts and reference files are absent from the bundle, so the cited executable command and 'See ... for the canon' pointers cannot be fulfilled as written.

4 / 5

Workflow Clarity

Clearly sequenced (Step 0 setup → Phase 0 grill-me routing → per-action numbered workflows) with explicit validation checkpoints ("screenshot before every meaningful UI interaction", "Detect login wall", "wait for ingestion spinner, screenshot to confirm success") and feedback loops (error-handling table with 'retry once', re-ask Q1 when no action specified) — matches the score-5 anchor; the skill is not destructive/batch so no 3-cap applies.

5 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Sectioning and one-level-deep reference links are clearly signaled, but no bundle files exist (references/ and scripts/ directories are absent), so every link is dangling, and content that belongs in those files (the four custom-prompt examples, the async wait/notify table) is duplicated inline — matching the score-3 anchor 'content that should be separate is inline'; score 4's 'minor organization gaps' understates the broken references.

Description

100%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

The description is exemplary: third-person voice, an explicit 'Use when' clause with natural trigger phrases, a comprehensive concrete action list, and a distinct niche with low conflict risk. Its only weakness is verbosity — the dense single-paragraph listing of every Studio output type could be trimmed without losing trigger value.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete actions with comprehensive coverage: "reading and querying notebooks, adding sources (URLs, text, files, YouTube links, synthesized content), generating Studio outputs (Audio/Video Overviews, Mind Maps, Reports...Flashcards, Quiz, slide decks, infographics), and creating new notebooks" — matches the score-5 anchor.

5 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both: what ("Browser automation skill for controlling Google's NotebookLM... Handles reading and querying notebooks, adding sources... generating Studio outputs... creating new notebooks") and when ("Use when the user wants anything done in NotebookLM (e.g., ...)") with concrete trigger phrases — matches the score-5 anchor.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Embeds natural phrases users would actually say — "'open NotebookLM'", "'check my [name] notebook'", "'ask my notebook about X'", "'add [source] to NotebookLM'", "'generate a Video Overview from my notebook'", "'use NotebookLM Studio'" — comprehensive coverage of natural trigger variations, exceeding the score-5 example.

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Occupies a clear niche (NotebookLM browser automation) with distinct, product-specific triggers and an explicit environment requirement ("Requires browser automation environment"), giving minimal conflict risk with other skills — matches the score-5 anchor.
