SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires python-docx, pyyaml, and includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill removes the time-consuming work of watching videos or reading multiple articles to produce a structured, research-ready report by automating the NotebookLM + Gemini analysis workflow from URLs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated NotebookLM research workflow: Opens NotebookLM, creates a new notebook, imports sources, and triggers report generation.
  • Multi-source ingestion: Supports individual URLs as well as YouTube playlists and channels (with automatic expansion/limiting).
  • Report export outputs: Saves a structured Markdown report and can export a Word (.docx) version when available.

Use Case Example: You need an investment-oriented summary from multiple YouTube sources; provide 4–10 video URLs (or a playlist/channel), generate a briefing report, and receive a saved folder containing the final synthesized output and NotebookLM link.

Quick Start

Ask an AI runner to execute the Knowledge Distillery workflow for a topic by running a command like: "Run the notebooklm-kd skill to research 'AI Technology Trends' using this playlist URL and output a briefing report to the default workspace folder."
