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-skill AGENTS.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.

notebooklm-skill

NotebookLM research automation — CLI, MCP server, and Claude Code Skill.

Overview

This project bridges Google NotebookLM's research capabilities with AI content generation. Feed it URLs, PDFs, or trending topics — it creates NotebookLM notebooks, runs deep research, and produces structured output: articles, social posts, podcasts, videos, slides, and more.

Built on notebooklm-py v0.3.4 — pure async Python.

Authentication

NotebookLM uses browser-based Google login (no API keys needed):

python3 -m notebooklm login          # One-time browser auth
python scripts/auth_helper.py verify  # Verify session

Session stored at ~/.notebooklm/storage_state.json. Lasts weeks.

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.
