- Operate Google NotebookLM MCP authentication lifecycle on Linux host. Use for NotebookLM MCP (
notebooklm-mcpviamcporter) when cookies expire frequently and auth must be refreshed often. Handles on/off, auth refresh, status, and smoke test. Triggers: "Включи NotebookLM", "Выключи NotebookLM", "обнови авторизацию NotebookLM", "проверь NotebookLM".
NotebookLM Ops
Automate operations for NotebookLM MCP in environments where Google session cookies become invalid quickly.
This skill solves repeated manual auth refresh by automating:
- GUI stack startup,
- navigation to NotebookLM,
- auth refresh via CDP,
- MCP sanity checks,
- full cleanup on shutdown.
Run commands from /home/moltuser/clawd.
Requirements / dependencies
- Linux host with Chromium and CDP (
--remote-debugging-port=9222). - Virtual display stack: Xvfb + openbox + x11vnc.
- Working scripts used by this skill:
- /home/moltuser/clawd/scripts/notebooklm-remote-gui.sh - /home/moltuser/clawd/scripts/refresh-google-mcp-cookies.sh - /home/moltuser/clawd/scripts/notebooklm-on.sh - /home/moltuser/clawd/scripts/notebooklm-off.sh
- NotebookLM MCP configured in
mcporter(notebooklm-mcp).
One-time login
A one-time manual login in Chromium to Google/NotebookLM is required. After that, this skill keeps refresh automated by reusing the same browser profile/session.
Turn NotebookLM ON
Execute:
/home/moltuser/clawd/skills/notebooklm-ops/scripts/notebooklm-on.shRequired sequence:
- Start GUI/CDP stack (Xvfb + openbox + x11vnc + Chromium).
- Navigate the current tab to
https://notebooklm.google.com/. - Wait for load.
- Refresh NotebookLM auth via CDP.
- Reload NotebookLM MCP auth and run sanity check (
notebooklm-list).
Turn NotebookLM OFF
Execute:
/home/moltuser/clawd/skills/notebooklm-ops/scripts/notebooklm-off.shStop Chromium and related GUI processes (x11vnc/Xvfb/openbox), then clean leftovers.
Check status
Execute:
/home/moltuser/clawd/skills/notebooklm-ops/scripts/notebooklm-status.shSmoke test
Execute:
/home/moltuser/clawd/skills/notebooklm-ops/scripts/notebooklm-smoke.shExpected result: notebook list returns "status": "success".
Failure handling
If auth refresh fails:
- Re-run NotebookLM ON once.
- If still failing, ask user to log in at
https://notebooklm.google.com/in the same Chromium profile via VNC. - Re-run NotebookLM ON and smoke test.
