Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| researchA | Research a question against exactly one NotebookLM notebook. Returns a compact source-locked evidence capsule with claims, citations, conflicts, gaps and quality status. Use this for substantive notebook questions. |
| list_notebooksA | List the authenticated account’s live NotebookLM notebooks. Use this when the user asks what expert notebooks are available; the result includes an explicit count and cached results are marked catalog_stale when live discovery is unavailable. |
| list_sourcesA | List authoritative remote source IDs and titles for one NotebookLM notebook using the RPC-only metadata path. Use before discussing corpus scope or freshness. |
| healthA | Check Frontier, persistent NotebookLM authentication, and upstream transport readiness without exposing credentials. |
| notebook_resolveA | Resolve a notebook by title, alias, ID or URL. Cache misses trigger a live refresh; cache is never authoritative. |
| notebook_refreshB | Force refresh of live notebooks and sources, detecting created, renamed, deleted and newly added items. |
| get_evidenceA | Retrieve one evidence item by evidence ID from a previous research session. |
| compare_notebooksC | Explicitly compare two notebooks while preserving provenance by notebook. Never invoked implicitly. |
| setup_authA | Open a visible Chrome window for secure Google login. Set force=true when cookies look valid locally but Google redirects to sign-in. |
| doctorB | Run local diagnostics for runtime, adapter, registry and stdio-safe MCP operation. |
