Agent Workflow

1. Check auth with cli-anything-notebooklm auth status
2. Discover notebook IDs with cli-anything-notebooklm --json notebook list
3. Use explicit --notebook for follow-up commands
4. Prefer --json only where the upstream notebooklm command supports it

Agent Guidance

• Prefer explicit notebook IDs with --notebook.
• Use --json for machine-readable output only on commands that support it upstream.
• Treat this harness as experimental and unofficial.
• Do not expose auth files or cookies in logs.
• NotebookLM is a Google product; this harness is unofficial and not affiliated with Google.
