NotebookLM AI Plugin

Bring the full Google NotebookLM experience to Claude Code, OpenClaw and any other AI agents that execute shell commands. Chat with your notebook AI, generate 9 types of artifacts, manage sources (URLs, YouTube, files), run fast/deep web research, and manage notes — just ask Claude.

Use npx skills to install skills directly:

Authentication

The first time you use the skill, it opens Chrome for Google login. Cookies are cached for subsequent runs. Just tell Claude:

"Log me into NotebookLM"

Generate Your First Artifact

Once authenticated, just describe what you want:

"Add this notebook https://notebooklm.google.com/notebook/YOUR_ID and generate a study guide from it"

That's it — the skill handles everything: authentication, notebook management, artifact creation, polling, and download.
