NotebookLM Video Workflow

Research a topic using NotebookLM and generate a video overview in Simplified Chinese.

Workflow Steps

When this skill is invoked, follow these steps in order:

Step 1: Prerequisites

First, run the notebooklm-research skill to handle installation check, login verification, and setup.

Step 2: Ask for Research Topic

Prompt the user: "What research topic would you like to explore?"

Wait for the user to provide the research title/topic.

Step 3: Create Notebook and Set Context

1. Create a new notebook with the research topic as title:

   notebooklm create "<research-title>" --json
   

   Parse the notebook ID from the JSON output.

2. Set the notebook as current context:

   notebooklm use <notebook-id>
   

Step 4: Generate Video (No Wait)

1. Ask the user to confirm whether they want to proceed with video generation.
2. If confirmed, generate a video overview in Simplified Chinese (no wait — runs in background):

   notebooklm generate video "<research-title> video overview" --language zh_Hans --format explainer --style auto --no-wait --json
   

3. Report the results to the user with the video ID.
4. Tell the user the video is being generated in the background — check back in about 5 minutes.
5. If declined, skip video generation and report notebook creation only.
