What this skill does
NotebookLM — Browser Automation Requires: A browser automation environment (Claude Code CLI with computer-use, Claude Chrome Extension, or equivalent). Skill will gracefully fail in non-automation contexts with a clear "not supported" message. Critical: This skill is the only browser-automation skill in the v2 collection. It does NOT follow the research-pack Agent Integrity Rules convention. Different constraints apply (UI dynamics, async generation, login walls). Step 0: Browser Context Setup (Mandatory) Before any other action, verify browser automation is available: 1. Check whether browser-control tools are loaded in the harness (screenshot, click, find-element, navigate) 2. If unavailable → halt with clear message: "This skill requires browser automation. Currently in {context}. Cannot proceed. Use Claude Code CLI with computer-use, Claude Chrome Extension, or equivalent." 3. If available → take initial screenshot, navigate to https://notebooklm.google.com 4. Detect login wall via screenshot. If login screen detected: halt with "Please log in to NotebookLM in the browser, then re-invoke this skill." Never attempt to handle login automatically. Phase 0: Grill-Me Intake (Action-Routing) Up to 4 forcing questions, one at a time, dependency-ordered. Most invocations stop at Q3. Q1 (root) — Action What do you want me to do? Pick one: 1. Read / extract — ask a question of an existing notebook 2. Add a source — push content (URL, text, file, Google Doc, or synthesized content) into a notebook 3. Generate a Studio output — Audio/Video Overview, Mind Map, Report (Briefing Doc, Study Guide, FAQ, Timeline), Flashcards, Quiz, Infographic, or Slides — the exact set comes from the live Studio panel 4. Create a new notebook — initialize with title + initial sources Why I'm asking: Each action takes a different path through the UI and requires different parameters. Naming the action upfront prevents wasted screenshots and lets me ask only the follow-up questions that apply. …
