# NotebookLM MCP + HTTP REST API

> Automate Google NotebookLM at scale. Production-grade REST API and MCP server with citation-backed Q&A, full Studio content generation (audio, video, infographic, report, presentation, data table), multi-account rotation with auto-reauth, and 33 documented HTTP endpoints. Built for researchers, automators, and AI agents.

This is the canonical entry point for LLMs (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini) discovering this project. The library exposes Google NotebookLM via two equivalent surfaces — a local HTTP REST API (port 3000 by default) for n8n / Zapier / Make / curl integrations, and an MCP server for Claude Code / Cursor / Codex agents. Both share the same browser automation backend.

The package is published to npm as `@roomi-fields/notebooklm-mcp` (current version 1.5.9). The maintained repository lives at https://github.com/roomi-fields/notebooklm-mcp.

## Quick install

```bash
git clone https://github.com/roomi-fields/notebooklm-mcp.git
cd notebooklm-mcp
npm install && npm run build
npm run setup-auth         # one-time Google login
npm run start:http         # REST API on http://localhost:3000
```

## REST API at a glance

Single-call ask example, returns answer plus structured citations:

```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/ask \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "question": "Summarize chapter 3",
    "notebook_id": "your-notebook-id",
    "source_format": "json"
  }'
```

Response shape:

```json
{
  "success": true,
  "answer": "Chapter 3 covers …",
  "citations": [
    { "id": 1, "source": "thesis-ch3.pdf", "excerpt": "..." }
  ],
  "session_id": "..."
}
```
