Usage Guidance
This skill automates your browser to act in your NotebookLM account. Before installing: (1) Only enable the Control Chrome connector for accounts you trust — automation will act using your logged-in browser session and can interact with pages & data you have open. (2) Avoid running this on a browser profile that contains sensitive accounts (banking, email, work systems). (3) Review the SKILL.md and README; confirm no external network endpoints are being used beyond web_search and opening NotebookLM/YouTube. (4) When running for the first time, watch the automation so you can stop it if it navigates or enters unexpected data. (5) If unsure, test with a throwaway Google account and a non-sensitive video first.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: notebooklm-youtube-skill
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle provides a legitimate automation workflow for creating NotebookLM notebooks from YouTube videos. It uses standard browser automation techniques, such as JavaScript event dispatching to interact with Angular-based UI elements, and emphasizes robust verification through screenshots. The instructions in SKILL.md and README.md are transparent, well-documented, and strictly focused on the stated functionality without any indicators of data exfiltration, malicious execution, or prompt injection.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (NotebookLM + YouTube automation) match the instructions: the SKILL.md focuses on controlling Chrome, extracting video info, web-searching people, creating a research document, and automating NotebookLM UI interactions. All required capabilities (browser control, being signed into NotebookLM) are in-line with the stated purpose; there are no unrelated binaries, config paths, or environment variables requested.
Instruction Scope
Instructions explicitly tell the agent to open YouTube and NotebookLM in Chrome, perform web searches, assemble research text, and inject that content into NotebookLM via DOM manipulation (setting textarea values, dispatching input/change events, clicking buttons). This is within scope for a browser-automation skill, but it necessarily uses whatever browser session is active: any sites you're logged into (cookies, sessions) are accessible to the automation. The skill does not instruct reading local files or exporting data to third-party endpoints, but it will paste/submit content into your NotebookLM account and perform clicks on your behalf — consider that sensitive account data and any pages open in the same browser may be reachable by the automation connector.
Install Mechanism
Instruction-only skill with no install spec and no code files to download or execute. The README asks the user to enable an existing 'Control Chrome' connector in the host app and adjust a macOS developer setting; there are no external downloads, third-party packages, or extraction steps in the skill bundle itself.
Credentials
The skill declares and requires no environment variables, credentials, or configuration paths. The README and SKILL.md require the user to be logged into NotebookLM in Chrome and to enable the 'Control Chrome' connector — these are proportionate to the stated automation task and are not covertly asking for unrelated secrets.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not marked always:true and does not request permanent presence or modify other skills/configs. It relies on the host's browser-control connector at runtime and does not persist files or install background services in the provided bundle.
How to Use
