Removing Notebooklm

/palas-basic:removing-notebooklm — Remove NotebookLM Watermark

IMPORTANT: Before starting execution, inform the user: "ESTOY EJECUTANDO EL SKILL /palas-basic:removing-notebooklm"

Remove the NotebookLM watermark from PDFs and images automatically.

Usage

/palas:removing-notebooklm <file> [--output <path>]

Arguments:

• file (Required): Input file to process
  • PDF: Multi-page presentations (e.g., presentation.pdf)
  • PNG/JPG: Single images/infographics (e.g., infographic.png)
• --output (Optional): Custom output path (default: {name}_clean.{ext})

No argument = show this usage.

Environment Setup

This skill uses zero-footprint dependency management:

• Python scripts: Executed via uv run with PEP 723 inline metadata — no requirements.txt or .venv needed

Prerequisites (must be installed on the system):

• uv — https://docs.astral.sh/uv/

No per-project setup required. Dependencies are cached globally and resolved on first run.

Dependencies (declared inline in script)

• Pillow — Image processing
• pymupdf — PDF processing
• opencv-python — Inpainting algorithm
• numpy — Array operations

Command

Replace <plugin-path> with the actual path to this plugin's installation directory.

# Default output (adds _clean suffix)
uv run <plugin-path>/skills/removing-notebooklm/scripts/removing-notebooklm.py "<file>"

# Custom output path
uv run <plugin-path>/skills/removing-notebooklm/scripts/removing-notebooklm.py "<file>" --output "<output>"

Examples

/palas:removing-notebooklm presentation.pdf
-> Creates presentation_clean.pdf

/palas:removing-notebooklm infographic.png
-> Creates infographic_clean.png

/palas:removing-notebooklm input.pdf --output final.pdf
-> Creates final.pdf

Output Format

Processing PDF: presentation.pdf
Pages: 12
  Page 1/12

How It Works

Watermark Specifications

Inpainting Algorithm

Uses OpenCV's Telea inpainting algorithm to seamlessly reconstruct the background:

• Creates a mask over the watermark area
• Propagates surrounding pixels into the masked region
• Works with complex backgrounds (textures, patterns, gradients)

Supported Formats

Behavior

1. Check argument: If no file provided, show usage and exit
2. Validate file: Check file exists and format is supported
3. Process file: Remove watermark using appropriate method
4. Save output: {original_name}_clean.{extension}

Notes

• Output file is saved in the same directory as input
• Original file is not modified
• Requires: uv installed on system
• No .venv created—dependencies cached globally by uv
