NotebookLM Research

Research workflows for NotebookLM: web research, Drive search, auto-import, and source content extraction.

Prerequisites

pip install notebooklm-py
playwright install chromium
notebooklm login

When This Skill Activates

• "Research [topic] in NotebookLM"
• "Find sources about X"
• "Do web research on Y"
• "Search my Drive for documents"
• Korean: "리서치 해줘", "자료 찾아줘", "웹 검색"

Research Modes

Mode	Sources Found	Time	Use Case
fast	5-10	seconds	Quick overview
deep	20+	2-5 min	Comprehensive research

Quick Reference

Web Research

# Fast research (default)
notebooklm source add-research "artificial intelligence trends"

# Deep research with auto-import
notebooklm source add-research "climate change policy" --mode deep --import-all

# Deep research (non-blocking, wait separately)
notebooklm source add-research "topic" --mode deep --no-wait
notebooklm research wait --import-all

Drive Research

# Search Google Drive
notebooklm source add-research "quarterly report" --from drive

# Deep Drive search
notebooklm source add-research "project docs" --from drive --mode deep

Research Status

# Check ongoing research
notebooklm research status

# Wait for completion
notebooklm research wait
notebooklm research wait --import-all  # Auto-import found sources

Source Content Extraction

# Get indexed fulltext
notebooklm source fulltext <source_id>
notebooklm source fulltext <source_id> --json

# Get AI-generated guide
notebooklm source guide <source_id>

Workflow: Research to Analysis

# 1. Create notebook
notebooklm create "AI Research Project"

# 2. Run deep research
notebooklm source add-research "large language models 2024" --mode deep --no-wait

# 3. Wait and import (can spawn subagent for this)
notebooklm research wait --import-all

# 4. Verify sources
notebooklm source list

# 5. Start analysis
notebooklm ask "What are the key trends?"

Subagent Pattern for Deep Research

For non-blocking deep research:

# Main conversation
notebooklm source add-research "topic" --mode deep --no-wait

# Spawn subagent to wait
Task(
  prompt="Wait for research in notebook {id} and import sources.
          Use: notebooklm research wait -n {id} --import-all --timeout 300
          Report how many sources were imported.",
  subagent_type="general-purpose"
)

Autonomy Rules

Auto-run:

• notebooklm research status
• notebooklm source list
• notebooklm source fulltext
• notebooklm source guide

Ask first:

• notebooklm source add-research (modifies notebook)
• notebooklm research wait --import-all (long-running)

Tips

1. Use deep mode for comprehensive research
2. Use --no-wait for non-blocking operations
3. Spawn subagent for long waits
4. Check research status before importing

Error Handling

Error	Solution
No results	Try different keywords
Timeout	Extend timeout or check status
Rate limit	Wait and retry
