What it does

Notcrawl is an agent skill from steipete/agent-scripts. Notion archive: desktop/API sync, Markdown export, page search, read-only SQL.

Its SKILL.md is about 270 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Databases, covering SQL. It works with SQL and Notion. The repository describes itself as: Scripts for agents, shared between my repositories. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve SQL

Example prompts

  • “/notcrawl”

Requirements

  • A credential in NOTION_TOKEN

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Check freshness for recent/current Notion questions.
  2. Search pages first; use read-only SQL for exact counts or schema-level analysis.
  3. Use export-md when the user needs Markdown files refreshed.
  4. Report date spans, page/database IDs, counts, and source limits.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 79150cf. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • NOTION_TOKEN

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Notcrawl loads about 272 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 22 tokens; SKILL.md has 96 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~22
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~272

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

notcrawl

Use this for local Notion archive questions. Desktop reads local cache; API sync needs NOTION_TOKEN and page access.

Sources

  • DB: ~/.notcrawl/notcrawl.db
  • Pages: ~/.notcrawl/pages
  • CLI: notcrawl

Refresh

bash
notcrawl doctor
notcrawl status
notcrawl sync --source desktop

Use API only when needed and credentials/page access are available:

bash
notcrawl sync --source api

Query Workflow

  1. Check freshness for recent/current Notion questions.
  2. Search pages first; use read-only SQL for exact counts or schema-level analysis.
  3. Use export-md when the user needs Markdown files refreshed.
  4. Report date spans, page/database IDs, counts, and source limits.

Use root or subcommand help for syntax: notcrawl --help, notcrawl search --help, notcrawl sql --help.

Common commands:

bash
notcrawl search --limit 20 "query"
notcrawl databases
notcrawl sql "select count(*) from pages;"
notcrawl export-md
