re_auth
Switch Google accounts or reset authentication when encountering rate limits, account switching needs, or broken authentication in NotebookLM.
Instructions
Switch to a different Google account or re-authenticate. Use this when:
NotebookLM rate limit is reached (50 queries/day for free accounts)
You want to switch to a different Google account
Authentication is broken and needs a fresh start
This will:
Close all active browser sessions
Delete all saved authentication data (cookies, Chrome profile)
Open browser for fresh Google login
After completion, use 'get_health' to verify authentication.
TROUBLESHOOTING for persistent auth issues: If re_auth fails repeatedly:
Ask user to close ALL Chrome/Chromium instances
Run cleanup_data(confirm=false, preserve_library=true) to preview old files
Run cleanup_data(confirm=true, preserve_library=true) to clean everything except library
Run re_auth again for completely fresh start This removes old installation data and browser sessions that can cause conflicts.
