Source Rescue

Auto-detect and batch-fix failed NotebookLM source imports

Feature

Sometimes NotebookLM imports fail (timeout, incomplete page load) or appear to succeed but have no actual content (“fake success”). NoteFlow’s rescue feature detects these cases automatically.

When you’re on a NotebookLM notebook page, NoteFlow scans all sources, detects failures and fake successes, and shows a banner at the top of the side panel.

1. Open a NotebookLM notebook

   Open any NotebookLM notebook page.

2. Auto-scan

   NoteFlow automatically scans all sources in the notebook and detects anomalies.

3. Click Rescue

   If failed sources are found, a banner appears at the top of the side panel. Click the “Rescue” button to batch-fix all failed sources.

4. View results

   After rescue completes, each source’s repair result (success/failure) is displayed.

Detection Scope

Type	Description
Import failure	Sources that failed due to timeout, server error, etc.
Fake success	Sources that show “success” status but have empty or invalid content

Notes

• Auto-scan only triggers on NotebookLM notebook pages
• Scanning is silent and does not interfere with your workflow
• Rescue retries each failed source one by one
