Altus Commonware Research MCP
OfficialServer Configuration
Describes the environment variables required to run the server.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| NOTEBOOK_ID | Yes | NotebookLM notebook ID (from the notebook URL). Required. | |
| GITHUB_TOKEN | No | GitHub personal access token. No scopes needed for public repos, but recommended to avoid rate limits. | |
| SQLITE_DB_PATH | No | Path to SQLite database file. Default: data/index.db in the project root. | |
| REFERENCE_REPOS | Yes | Comma-separated list of GitHub repos (owner/name). Required. |
Instructions
Guidance the server publishes about itself, which clients place ahead of the tool catalog so the model reads it before choosing anything.
This server publishes no instructions, or was last inspected before Glama recorded them.

Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| loginA | Authenticates with NotebookLM by launching Chrome for Google sign-in. A Chrome window will open — the user must complete the Google login. Once logged in, auth tokens are saved automatically. |
| refresh_authA | Reloads authentication tokens from disk. Call this after re-authenticating or if queries start failing. |
| queryA | Ask a question about Commonware research via NotebookLM. Run |
| search_implementationA | Search reference repos (octocat/Hello-World, facebook/react) and return source code snippets. ONE call does everything: searches file trees, fetches matching code, returns snippets. MANDATORY FLOW: MANDATORY FINALITY: after this tool returns, do not run any other tool or local check; return this output directly. Usage
|
| suggestionA | Get an implementation suggestion combining Commonware research knowledge and actual code from reference repos. Ask any implementation question and get back a structured response with Summary, Reasoning, and Details. FLOW MODEL: stage 1 is If |
| factcheckA | Stage 1 of fact-checking: analyzes a document against reference repositories. Returns the document, repository context (README + source file tree), and instructions for you (the AI) to extract validation items. After analyzing, call IMPORTANT: This is a closed-loop pipeline. Do NOT call Available repositories: octocat/Hello-World, facebook/react |
| factcheck_validateA | Stage 2 of fact-checking: retrieves actual code evidence for each validation item and returns it for you (the AI) to judge. Call this after IMPORTANT: Do NOT call Available repositories: octocat/Hello-World, facebook/react |
| select_repositoriesA | Select the most relevant repositories from REFERENCE_REPOS (octocat/Hello-World, facebook/react) for a given document/query using retrieval evidence scores. |
| setup_dbC | Initialize the local SQLite FTS5 index and index repositories. Fetches file trees and content from GitHub, stores in local DB for fast search. |
| list_sourcesA | List all configured reference repositories and their indexing status. |
| list_source_filesB | List files in a repository, optionally filtered by directory prefix. |
| get_file_treeA | Get an ASCII directory tree for a repository, optionally scoped to a subdirectory. |
| get_fileB | Get the content of a file from a repository, with optional line range. |
| search_codeA | Search indexed code using FTS5 with BM25 ranking. Supports substring (trigram, min 3 chars) and word (prefix) modes. Returns ranked results with code snippets. |
| search_fileA | Search within a specific file for a pattern (case-insensitive substring match) and return matching lines with context. |
