notebooklm-claude-workflows: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

notebooklm-claude-workflows CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from CreatmanCEO/notebooklm-claude-workflows. It costs 1,388 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A collection of Claude Code commands and scripts for automating workflows in Google NotebookLM, a tool for asking questions about supplied sources and generating related outputs. It relies on the separate notebooklm-mcp-cli server.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps create notebooks, add sources, ask questions, start research, import results, create studio outputs, split Telegram exports into Markdown chunks, and check authentication.
Why use it?
It turns repeated NotebookLM tasks into defined sequences of actions and handles Telegram forum exports that are too large to add directly.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions Claude Code.

This is CreatmanCEO/notebooklm-claude-workflows's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on notebooklm-claude-workflows itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

notebooklm-claude-workflows CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 67 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

notebooklm-claude-workflows — CLAUDE.md (Level 1)

Level 1 file for this repository. (config/CLAUDE.md is a snippet shipped to downstream users — different file, different audience.)

Status: ACTIVE

Public Claude Code slash-command pack + automation for Google NotebookLM. MIT-licensed. Built on top of notebooklm-mcp-cli — no functionality without it.

Architecture

The whole project is a workflow layer over a third-party MCP server. There is no runtime of our own:

  • commands/*.md — Claude Code slash-command recipes. Each is a deterministic 2–3-phase pipeline of MCP tool calls (notebook_create, source_add, notebook_query, studio_create, research_start, research_status, research_import).
  • scripts/telegram-chunker.py — Python utility for one specific pain point: turning Telegram forum-supergroup exports into NotebookLM-sized markdown chunks. Detects topics via topic_message_id + forum_topic_created. Output is plain markdown ready for source_add.
  • scripts/nlm-auth-check.sh — Bash daily auth probe. Calls nlm notebook list, parses for "id" keys, logs to ~/Documents/scripts/nlm-auth.log. On Windows, fires a BurntToast notification (with MessageBox fallback) when auth has expired.
  • scripts/setup-nlm-scheduler.ps1 — PowerShell installer that registers the auth probe as a Windows Task Scheduler job.
  • config/CLAUDE.md — content fragment to be appended to a downstream user's ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md. Teaches Claude to proactively use NotebookLM for unfamiliar libraries.

Key files (when touching)

  • commands/research.md — three-phase pipeline. The order matters: Phase 1 sources, Phase 2 queries, Phase 3 artifacts. Do not collapse phases.
  • commands/deep-research.md — five-question-per-topic deep dive. Builds a topic tree first, then iterates. Distinct from research.md; both should remain.
  • commands/telegram-to-notebook.md — references scripts/telegram-chunker.py. Keep paths consistent if you move the script.
  • scripts/telegram-chunker.py — 13 KB, pure stdlib. No third-party deps by design (so it runs anywhere Python 3.10+ is available).
  • scripts/nlm-auth-check.shbash-portable, no set -euo pipefail because the failure path is the whole point. If you add set -e, the toast-notification logic stops working when nlm notebook list fails.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
