The Almanacker

NotebookLM studio

almanack the-almanacker Fire-and-forget

Audio Overviews, Reports, Infographics, and notebook-scoped chat have no public API. They live inside a multi-layered Google GUI. Almanacker collapses a click-path into one command, authenticated by the live Google OAuth session.

Creates notebooks, batch-adds sources (files or URLs), fires chat, and kicks Studio generators. Studio work is async — the CLI confirms kickoff, you consume the artifact in NotebookLM.

Studio labels are locale-bound. en-US and pt-BR ship built-in; other languages use ~/.config/almanack/locale.conf. File uploads hook HTMLInputElement.click so the native OS picker never opens.

Limits

No response retrieval — chat replies and studio artifacts stay in the web UI.
Exactly one notebook tab must be open — zero or multiple matches fail explicitly. The driver-reported active field never breaks ties.
Uploads bypass the native picker via a click hook; a File System Access API change would break that path.
Studio matching is locale-bound.
