📝 MANUAL ENTRY — Add notebook with manually specified metadata (use auto_discover_notebook instead)

When to Use

• Auto-discovery failed or unavailable

• User has specific metadata requirements

• User prefers manual control

Conversation Workflow (Mandatory)

When the user says: "I have a NotebookLM with X"

FIRST: Try auto_discover_notebook for faster setup ONLY IF user refuses auto-discovery or it fails:

1. Ask URL: "What is the NotebookLM URL?"

2. Ask content: "What knowledge is inside?" (1–2 sentences)

3. Ask topics: "Which topics does it cover?" (3–5)

4. Ask use cases: "When should we consult it?"

5. Propose metadata and confirm:

   • Name: [suggested]

   • Description: [from user]

   • Topics: [list]

   • Use cases: [list] "Add it to your library now?"

6. Only after explicit "Yes" → call this tool

Rules

• Do not add without user permission

• Prefer auto_discover_notebook when possible

• Do not guess metadata — ask concisely

• Confirm summary before calling the tool

Example

User: "I have a notebook with n8n docs" You: "Want me to auto-generate the metadata?" (offer auto_discover_notebook first) User: "No, I'll specify it myself" You: Ask URL → content → topics → use cases; propose summary User: "Yes" You: Call add_notebook
