Part of the Notebooklm MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents may call sync_library to permanently remove or destroy resources in Notebooklm. Without a policy, an autonomous agent could delete critical data in a loop with no way to undo the damage. Intercept blocks destructive tools by default and requires explicit human approval before enabling them.
Without a policy, an AI agent could call sync_library in a loop, permanently destroying resources in Notebooklm. There is no undo for destructive operations. Intercept blocks this tool by default and only allows it when a human explicitly approves the action.
Destructive tools permanently remove data. Block by default. Only enable with explicit approval workflows.

sync_library is one of the critical-risk operations in Notebooklm. For the full severity-focused view — only the critical-risk tools with their recommended policies — see the breakdown for this server, or browse all critical-risk tools across every MCP server.
Sync your local library with actual NotebookLM notebooks. ## What This Tool Does - Navigates to NotebookLM and extracts all your notebooks - Compares with local library entries - Detects stale entries (notebooks deleted or URLs changed) - Identifies notebooks not in your library - Optionally auto-removes stale entries ## When To Use - Library seems out of sync with NotebookLM - After deleting notebooks in NotebookLM - To discover new notebooks to add - Before setting up automation workflows ## Output Returns a sync report with: - **matched**: Library entries that match actual notebooks - **staleEntries**: Library entries with no matching notebook (candidates for removal) - **missingNotebooks**: NotebookLM notebooks not in library (candidates for adding) - **suggestions**: Recommended actions ## Example Usage ```json { "auto_fix": false } ``` With auto-fix to remove stale entries: ```json { "auto_fix": true } ```. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Notebooklm MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for sync_library. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Notebooklm MCP server.
sync_library is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the sync_library rule in your Intercept policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for sync_library. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
sync_library is provided by the Notebooklm MCP server (@pan-sec/notebooklm-mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Open source. One binary. Zero dependencies.
