+# Spec Index — NotebookLM-Style Application Clone
+
+This folder defines the spec-driven implementation plan for a NotebookLM-style app:
+- Source ingestion: PDF, PPTX, TXT, URL
+- RAG chat with citations
+- Artifact generation: report (.md), quiz (.md w/ answer key), podcast transcript (.md)
+- Per-user isolation (HF OAuth)
+- Multiple notebooks per user (CRUD)
+
+See:
+- 01_product_requirements.md
+- 02_architecture.md
+- 03_data_model.md
+- 04_interfaces.md
+- 05_rag_and_citations.md
+- 06_artifacts.md

+- 08_ui_spec.md
+- 09_ci_cd.md
+- 10_test_plan.md
+- 11_observability.md
+- 12_open_questions.md
+
+Definition of Done:
+- Authenticated user can create/select notebooks.

+# Product Requirements
+
+## Goal
+Build a NotebookLM-style assistant where users upload sources, chat with them using RAG, and generate study artifacts.
+
+## Core Capabilities
+- Notebook CRUD per user
+- Source ingestion (.pdf, .pptx, .txt, URL http/https)
+- RAG chat with citations
+- Artifact generation (report, quiz, podcast transcript)
+- Notebook export (.zip)
+
+## Non-Functional
+- Per-user isolation
+- Graceful error handling
+- Prompt injection awareness
