Context window isn't big enough. So I put it inside NotebookLM - it reads everything, cites every source, and Claude Code controls it from the terminal. I show the full workflow: YouTube search to sources, cited answers with passage-level deep links back to Obsidian, audio overviews you can listen to on your phone, and the full loop where notes go in and a knowledge graph comes back. ๐ŸŽ Free: Claude Code Skill for NotebookLM โ†’ The exact skill I used in this video - sources, citations, audio, import โ†’ Download link in welcome email https://artemxtech.substack.com Follow me: Substack: https://artemxtech.substack.com/ X: https://x.com/ArtemXTech GitHub: https://github.com/ArtemXTech Timestamps: 0:00 - 300 Files Don't Fit in Your Context Window 1:36 - What Is NotebookLM 2:30 - Claude Code + notebooklm-py CLI 3:07 - How It All Connects (Architecture Diagram) 3:58 - Live Demo: Researching a Topic from Terminal 5:00 - YouTube Search (20 Videos Found) 5:57 - Creating a Notebook + Adding Sources 6:32 - Sources Loading in Real Time 7:14 - Dashboard with 20 Sources in Obsidian 7:56 - Importing Sources as Vault Files 8:55 - First Q&A: Gaps and Opportunities Across 20 Videos 9:16 - Verifying Citations Against Source Videos 11:17 - Citation Accuracy Audit (60% Strong Match) 11:45 - Graph View: Connections Between Sources 12:04 - Building an Obsidian Base for NotebookLM Sources 13:06 - Topics Extracted as Wikilinks 14:12 - Obsidian x Claude Code Lab 15:31 - Obsidian CLI Workshop 16:34 - Adding More Sources (Articles, PDFs, Vault Notes) 18:23 - NotebookLM Supports Up to 300 Sources 18:50 - Custom Persona per Notebook 19:54 - Q&A with Citation Resolution in Obsidian 21:03 - Passage-Level Deep Links (Click to Exact Chunk) 21:54 - Before vs After: 20 Tab
