Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
Bi-directional sync between markdown files and Notion pages, plus database management utilities for research tracking and project management.
From v2.0: Replace --token "ntn_..." with --token-file, --token-stdin, or NOTION_API_KEY env var. Bare --token is no longer accepted (credentials should never appear in process listings). From v1.x: See v2.0 changelog for migration details.
Node.js v18 or later A Notion integration token (starts with ntn_ or secret_)
Go to https://www.notion.so/my-integrations Create a new integration (or use an existing one) Copy the "Internal Integration Token" Pass the token using one of these methods (priority order used by scripts): Option A โ Token file (recommended): echo "ntn_your_token" > ~/.notion-token && chmod 600 ~/.notion-token node scripts/search-notion.js "query" --token-file ~/.notion-token Option B โ Stdin pipe: echo "$NOTION_API_KEY" | node scripts/search-notion.js "query" --token-stdin Option C โ Environment variable: export NOTION_API_KEY="ntn_your_token" node scripts/search-notion.js "query" Auto default: If ~/.notion-token exists, scripts use it automatically even without --token-file. Share your Notion pages/databases with the integration: Open the page/database in Notion Click "Share" โ "Invite" Select your integration
All scripts support a global --json flag. Suppresses progress logs written to stderr Keeps stdout machine-readable for automation Errors are emitted as JSON: { "error": "..." } Example: node scripts/query-database.js <db-id> --limit 5 --json
Scripts that read/write local files are restricted to the current working directory by default. Prevents accidental reads/writes outside the intended workspace Applies to: md-to-notion.js, add-to-database.js, notion-to-md.js, watch-notion.js Override intentionally with --allow-unsafe-paths Examples: # Default (safe): path must be inside current workspace node scripts/md-to-notion.js docs/draft.md <parent-id> "Draft" # Intentional override (outside workspace) node scripts/notion-to-md.js <page-id> ~/Downloads/export.md --allow-unsafe-paths
Search across your Notion workspace by title or content. node scripts/search-notion.js "<query>" [--filter page|database] [--limit 10] [--json] Examples: # Search for newsletter-related pages node scripts/search-notion.js "newsletter" # Find only databases node scripts/search-notion.js "research" --filter database # Limit results node scripts/search-notion.js "AI" --limit 5 Output: [ { "id": "page-id-here", "object": "page", "title": "Newsletter Draft", "url": "https://notion.so/...", "lastEdited": "2026-02-01T09:00:00.000Z" } ]
Query database contents with advanced filters and sorting. node scripts/query-database.js <database-id> [--filter <json>] [--sort <json>] [--limit 10] [--json] Examples: # Get all items node scripts/query-database.js xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx # Filter by Status = "Complete" node scripts/query-database.js <db-id> \ --filter '{"property": "Status", "select": {"equals": "Complete"}}' # Filter by Tags containing "AI" node scripts/query-database.js <db-id> \ --filter '{"property": "Tags", "multi_select": {"contains": "AI"}}' # Sort by Date descending node scripts/query-database.js <db-id> \ --sort '[{"property": "Date", "direction": "descending"}]' # Combine filter + sort node scripts/query-database.js <db-id> \ --filter '{"property": "Status", "select": {"equals": "Complete"}}' \ --sort '[{"property": "Date", "direction": "descending"}]' Common filter patterns: Select equals: {"property": "Status", "select": {"equals": "Done"}} Multi-select contains: {"property": "Tags", "multi_select": {"contains": "AI"}} Date after: {"property": "Date", "date": {"after": "2024-01-01"}} Checkbox is true: {"property": "Published", "checkbox": {"equals": true}} Number greater than: {"property": "Count", "number": {"greater_than": 100}}
Update properties for database pages (status, tags, dates, etc.). node scripts/update-page-properties.js <page-id> <property-name> <value> [--type <type>] [--json] Supported types: select, multi_select, checkbox, number, url, email, date, rich_text Examples: # Set status node scripts/update-page-properties.js <page-id> Status "Complete" --type select # Add multiple tags node scripts/update-page-properties.js <page-id> Tags "AI,Leadership,Research" --type multi_select # Set checkbox node scripts/update-page-properties.js <page-id> Published true --type checkbox # Set date node scripts/update-page-properties.js <page-id> "Publish Date" "2024-02-01" --type date # Set URL node scripts/update-page-properties.js <page-id> "Source URL" "https://example.com" --type url # Set number node scripts/update-page-properties.js <page-id> "Word Count" 1200 --type number
Batch update a single property across multiple pages in one command. Mode 1 โ Query + Update: node scripts/batch-update.js <database-id> <property-name> <value> --filter '<json>' [--type select] [--dry-run] [--limit 100] Example: node scripts/batch-update.js <db-id> Status Review \ --filter '{"property":"Status","select":{"equals":"Draft"}}' \ --type select Mode 2 โ Page IDs from stdin: echo "page-id-1\npage-id-2\npage-id-3" | \ node scripts/batch-update.js --stdin <property-name> <value> [--type select] [--dry-run] Features: --dry-run: prints pages that would be updated (with current property value) without writing --limit <n>: max pages to process (default 100) Pagination in query mode (has_more/next_cursor) up to limit Rate-limit friendly updates (300ms between page updates) Progress and summary on stderr, JSON result array on stdout
Push markdown content to Notion with full formatting support. node scripts/md-to-notion.js \ "<markdown-file-path>" \ "<notion-parent-page-id>" \ "<page-title>" [--json] [--allow-unsafe-paths] Example: node scripts/md-to-notion.js \ "projects/newsletter-draft.md" \ "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx" \ "Newsletter Draft - Feb 2026" Supported formatting: Headings (H1-H3) Bold/italic text Links Bullet lists Code blocks with syntax highlighting Horizontal dividers Paragraphs Features: Batched uploads (100 blocks per request) Automatic rate limiting (350ms between batches) Rich text is automatically chunked to Notion's 2000-character limit (including bold/italic/link spans) Returns Notion page URL and ID Output: Parsed 294 blocks from markdown โ Created page: https://www.notion.so/[title-and-id] โ Appended 100 blocks (100-200) โ Appended 94 blocks (200-294) โ Successfully created Notion page!
Pull Notion page content and convert to markdown. node scripts/notion-to-md.js <page-id> [output-file] [--json] [--allow-unsafe-paths] Example: node scripts/notion-to-md.js \ "abc123-example-page-id-456def" \ "newsletter-updated.md" Features: Converts Notion blocks to markdown Preserves formatting (headings, lists, code, quotes) Optional file output (writes to file or stdout)
Monitor Notion pages for edits and compare with local markdown files. node scripts/watch-notion.js "<page-id>" "<local-markdown-path>" [--state-file <path>] [--json] [--allow-unsafe-paths] Example: node scripts/watch-notion.js \ "abc123-example-page-id-456def" \ "projects/newsletter-draft.md" State tracking: By default maintains state in memory/notion-watch-state.json (relative to current working directory). You can override with --state-file <path> (supports ~ expansion): node scripts/watch-notion.js "<page-id>" "<local-path>" --state-file ~/.cache/notion-watch-state.json Default state schema: { "pages": { "<page-id>": { "lastEditedTime": "2026-01-30T08:57:00.000Z", "lastChecked": "2026-01-31T19:41:54.000Z", "title": "Your Page Title" } } } Output: { "pageId": "<page-id>", "title": "Your Page Title", "lastEditedTime": "2026-01-30T08:57:00.000Z", "hasChanges": false, "localPath": "/path/to/your-draft.md", "actions": ["โ No changes since last check"] } Automated monitoring: Schedule periodic checks using cron, CI pipelines, or any task scheduler: # Example: cron job every 2 hours during work hours 0 9-21/2 * * * cd /path/to/workspace && node scripts/watch-notion.js "<page-id>" "<local-path>" The script outputs JSON โ pipe it to any notification system when hasChanges is true.
Add Markdown Content to Database Add a markdown file as a new page in any Notion database. node scripts/add-to-database.js <database-id> "<page-title>" <markdown-file-path> [--json] [--allow-unsafe-paths] Examples: # Add research output node scripts/add-to-database.js \ xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx \ "Research Report - Feb 2026" \ projects/research-insights.md # Add project notes node scripts/add-to-database.js \ <project-db-id> \ "Sprint Retrospective" \ docs/retro-2026-02.md # Add meeting notes node scripts/add-to-database.js \ <notes-db-id> \ "Weekly Team Sync" \ notes/sync-2026-02-06.md Features: Creates database page with title property Converts markdown to Notion blocks (headings, paragraphs, dividers) Handles large files with batched uploads Returns page URL for immediate access Note: Additional properties (Type, Tags, Status, etc.) must be set manually in Notion UI after creation. Inspect Database Schema node scripts/get-database-schema.js <database-id> [--json] Example output: { "object": "database", "id": "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx", "title": [{"plain_text": "Ax Resources"}], "properties": { "Name": {"type": "title"}, "Type": {"type": "select"}, "Tags": {"type": "multi_select"} } } Use when: Setting up new database integrations Debugging property names/types Understanding database structure Archive Pages node scripts/delete-notion-page.js <page-id> [--json] Note: This archives the page (sets archived: true), not permanent deletion.
Push local draft to Notion: node scripts/md-to-notion.js draft.md <parent-id> "Draft Title" User edits in Notion (anywhere, any device) Monitor for changes: node scripts/watch-notion.js <page-id> <local-path> # Returns hasChanges: true when edited Pull updates back: node scripts/notion-to-md.js <page-id> draft-updated.md Repeat as needed (update same page, don't create v2/v3/etc.)
Generate research locally (e.g., via sub-agent) Sync to Notion database: node scripts/add-research-to-db.js User adds metadata in Notion UI (Type, Tags, Status properties) Access from anywhere via Notion web/mobile
From Notion URL: https://notion.so/Page-Title-abc123-example-page-id-456def Extract: abc123-example-page-id-456def (last part after title) Or use the 32-char format: abc123examplepageid456def (hyphens optional)
Property updates: Database properties (Type, Tags, Status) must be added manually in Notion UI after page creation. API property updates can be temperamental with inline databases. Block limits: Very large markdown files (>1000 blocks) may take several minutes to sync due to rate limiting. Formatting: Some complex markdown (tables, nested lists >3 levels) may not convert perfectly.
"Could not find page" error: Ensure page/database is shared with your integration Check page ID format (32 chars, alphanumeric + hyphens) "Module not found" error: Scripts use built-in Node.js https module (no npm install needed) Ensure running from the skill's directory (where scripts/ lives) Rate limiting: Notion API has rate limits (~3 requests/second) Scripts handle this automatically with 350ms delays between batches
Core Sync: md-to-notion.js - Markdown โ Notion sync with full formatting notion-to-md.js - Notion โ Markdown conversion watch-notion.js - Change detection and monitoring Search & Query: search-notion.js - Search pages and databases by query query-database.js - Query databases with filters and sorting update-page-properties.js - Update database page properties batch-update.js - Batch update one property across many pages (query or stdin IDs) Database Management: add-to-database.js - Add markdown files as database pages get-database-schema.js - Inspect database structure delete-notion-page.js - Archive pages Utilities: notion-utils.js - Shared utilities (error handling, property formatting, API requests) All scripts use only built-in Node.js modules (https, fs) - no external dependencies required.
