/read-book — Extract structured notes from books and long PDFs
Sibling to watch-video. Same content-consumption pattern: ingest → chunk → extract → optionally capture to second-brain.
Step 1 — Parse input
Accept:
- PDF: file path (Claude reads PDFs natively in chunks via
Read pages:"X-Y") - EPUB / MOBI: file path (needs
pandocorebook-convertto extract — seereferences/sources.md) - Markdown / .txt: file path (read directly)
- Pasted text: just use what was pasted
- URL to public-domain text:
WebFetch(Project Gutenberg, archive.org, etc.)
Detect type from file extension. If ambiguous, ask.
Step 2 — Parse mode
| Invocation | Mode | What you get |
|---|---|---|
/read-book <input> | notes (default) | Chapter-by-chapter: TL;DR + key concepts + quotes + action items + frameworks |
/read-book <input> summary | summary | Whole-book TL;DR (1 paragraph) + 3–5 key takeaways + who-it's-for |
/read-book <input> quotes | quotes | Pull-quote highlights only, with chapter context and page refs |
/read-book <input> study | study | Notes mode + 10–20 spaced-repetition Q&A cards |
If the book is long (>200 pages) and mode is unspecified, default to notes but warn it'll take many tool calls.
Step 3 — Get the text + chunk
See references/sources.md for per-source ingestion. Output of this step: text content + a chunking plan.
Chunking strategy (hybrid, in priority order):
-
By chapter if a TOC exists (PDF with bookmarks, EPUB/MOBI converted via pandoc preserves chapter headers)
- Use
pdfinfo <pdf> | grep "Pages"for PDFs - Use
pdftotext -layout <pdf> | grep -i "^chapter\|^part"for chapter detection, or read TOC from page 1–5 - EPUB: after
pandoc <epub> -o tmp.md, chunks are between# Chapter Xheaders
- Use
-
By page count for PDFs without TOC: 50 pages per chunk
-
By character count for text/markdown: 30,000 chars per chunk (~7,500 words)
Save the chunking plan as ~/Documents/books/<author>-<title-slug>-<YYYY-MM-DD>/chunks.json:
{
"source": "<path>",
"title": "<book title>",
"author": "<author>",
"type": "pdf",
"total_pages": 287,
"chunking": "by-chapter",
"chunks": [
{"i": 0, "label": "Introduction", "pages": "1-12"},
{"i": 1, "label": "Chapter 1: The Problem", "pages": "13-32"},
...
]
}
Step 4 — Read each chunk
Loop:
- Read chunk N (
Readtool withpages:for PDF, full file for text/MD) - Extract per the chosen mode (see
references/output-modes.mdfor templates) - Append the chunk's notes to
~/Documents/books/<workdir>/notes-<NNN>-<label-slug>.md
For PDFs, don't read the whole book in one call — Claude's PDF tool maxes around 10 pages. Process chunks individually.
If a chunk fails to extract anything useful (e.g., it's mostly diagrams or front-matter), log the skip and continue.
Step 5 — Aggregate into final notes file
Combine all chunk notes into a single ~/Documents/books/<workdir>/notes.md matching the mode's full-book template (see references/output-modes.md).
Top of the file always has the metadata block + the second-brain-compatible frontmatter:
source: <file path or URL>
captured: YYYY-MM-DD
type: book
book_title: <title>
author: <author>
mode: notes
chunks: <count>
chunking: <strategy>
# <title> by <author>
## TL;DR
<2–3 sentences>
## Key takeaways
1. ...
## Chapter notes
...
## Cross-references (suggested for wiki)
- Could connect to [[Longevity Biomarkers]] (per Chapter 3 discussion of biomarkers)
- Could connect to [[Productivity & Systems]] (per Chapter 7 framework)
The cross-reference suggestions are advisory — they're suggestions for /sb compile to act on, not auto-applied. Keep responsibilities separated.
Step 6 — Offer to capture to second-brain
Ask:
"Want to capture this to second-brain? I'll write it to
${SECOND_BRAIN_VAULT:-$HOME/Documents/SecondBrain}/raw/highlights-<slug>.mdmatching your vault'shighlights-type prefix."
Default is ask, never auto-write. If yes:
- Copy the final
notes.md(with the second-brain-compatible frontmatter at top) to${SECOND_BRAIN_VAULT:-$HOME/Documents/SecondBrain}/raw/highlights-<slug>.md - Tell the user the path
- Suggest: "Run
/sb compilelater to merge this into wiki pages — the cross-reference suggestions in the footer are starting points."
If the user skips capture, the workdir still has everything — they can grab the file later.
Step 7 — Report
In chat:
- One-line headline:
<title> · <author> · <total_pages or word count> · <mode> · <chunks processed> - Workdir path
- The TL;DR section
- For
notes/studymodes: brief list of top 3 takeaways - For
quotesmode: top 3 quotes - If captured to second-brain: that path too
Modes (quick invocations)
| Invocation | Mode | Behavior |
|---|---|---|
/read-book <input> | notes | Full pipeline, default mode |
/read-book <input> summary | summary | Just TL;DR + key takeaways (1 read pass for short books, sampled chapters for long) |
/read-book <input> quotes | quotes | Chapter-by-chapter, but only output quotes |
/read-book <input> study | study | Notes + Q&A spaced-rep cards |
/read-book <input> --capture | (any) | Skip the ask step, auto-write to second-brain raw/ |
/read-book <input> --render pdf | (any) | Also render the final notes.md to PDF via pandoc (uses ~/.local/share/makerskills/render.css). See references/output-modes.md. |
/read-book <input> --render html | (any) | Same as above but HTML |
Composes with

Notes feed back into the research brief.business-brainstorm— when scoring an idea (e.g., business books on similar models), read-book provides the structured evidence.decide— when a decision hinges on what an authority has written (e.g., "should I take VC money?" → read Naval / Jason Cohen),read-bookextracts the relevant chapter.slide-deck— book takeaways → talk material (book talk pattern).watch-video— sibling skill, same content-consumption pattern.

Error handling
| Failure | Response |
|---|---|
| EPUB/MOBI without pandoc / ebook-convert | Tell the user: brew install pandoc or brew install calibre (calibre includes ebook-convert) |
| PDF is scanned (no text layer) | Suggest OCR first: brew install ocrmypdf && ocrmypdf <pdf> <pdf-ocr.pdf> |
| PDF has no detectable TOC | Fall back to 50-page chunks. Note in the metadata. |
| Book is unusually long (>500 pages) | Warn cost / time, ask if the user wants summary mode instead of full notes |
| Chunk extraction empty | Skip the chunk, log, continue. Don't fail the whole run. |
Notes on quality
- Don't summarize beyond recognition. A 30-page chapter should produce 8–15 lines of notes, not 3. Compression is good; flattening is bad.
- Preserve specifics. Names, numbers, dates, quotes — keep them. The whole point is later-the user can grep "what did Andy Wilkinson say about X" and find it.
- Quotes are sacred. When you flag a quote, copy it verbatim. Note the page if possible.
- Action items are explicit. If the book makes you think "I should do X," flag it explicitly. These are the highest-leverage outputs.
- Frameworks deserve their own bullets. When the author names a framework (e.g., "the 9-dimension filter," "Save the Cat beats"), call it out by name in the notes.

# /read-book — Extract structured notes from books and long PDFs
Sibling to `watch-video`. Same content-consumption pattern: ingest → chunk → extract → optionally capture to second-brain.
## Step 1 — Parse input
Accept:
- **PDF**: file path (Claude reads PDFs natively in chunks via `Read pages:"X-Y"`)
- **EPUB / MOBI**: file path (needs `pandoc` or `ebook-convert` to extract — see `references/sources.md`)
- **Markdown / .txt**: file path (read directly)
- **Pasted text**: just use what was pasted
- **URL** to public-domain text: `WebFetch` (Project Gutenberg, archive.org, etc.)
Detect type from file extension. If ambiguous, ask.
## Step 2 — Parse mode
| Invocation | Mode | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| `/read-book <input>` | **notes** (default) | Chapter-by-chapter: TL;DR + key concepts + quotes + action items + frameworks |
| `/read-book <input> summary` | summary | Whole-book TL;DR (1 paragraph) + 3–5 key takeaways + who-it's-for |
| `/read-book <input> quotes` | quotes | Pull-quote highlights only, with chapter context and page refs |
| `/read-book <input> study` | study | Notes mode + 10–20 spaced-repetition Q&A cards |
If the book is long (>200 pages) and mode is unspecified, default to `notes` but warn it'll take many tool calls.
## Step 3 — Get the text + chunk
See `references/sources.md` for per-source ingestion. Output of this step: text content + a chunking plan.
**Chunking strategy** (hybrid, in priority order):
1. **By chapter** if a TOC exists (PDF with bookmarks, EPUB/MOBI converted via pandoc preserves chapter headers)
- Use `pdfinfo <pdf> | grep "Pages"` for PDFs
- Use `pdftotext -layout <pdf> | grep -i "^chapter\|^part"` for chapter detection, or read TOC from page 1–5
- EPUB: after `pandoc <epub> -o tmp.md`, chunks are between `# Chapter X` headers
2. **By page count** for PDFs without TOC: 50 pages per chunk
3. **By character count** for text/markdown: 30,000 chars per chunk (~7,500 words)
Save the chunking plan as `~/Documents/books/<author>-<title-slug>-<YYYY-MM-DD>/chunks.json`:
```json
{

{"i": 1, "label": "Chapter 1: The Problem", "pages": "13-32"},
...
]
}
```
## Step 4 — Read each chunk
Loop:
1. Read chunk N (`Read` tool with `pages:` for PDF, full file for text/MD)
2. Extract per the chosen mode (see `references/output-modes.md` for templates)
3. Append the chunk's notes to `~/Documents/books/<workdir>/notes-<NNN>-<label-slug>.md`
For PDFs, **don't read the whole book in one call** — Claude's PDF tool maxes around 10 pages. Process chunks individually.

## Chapter notes
...
## Cross-references (suggested for wiki)

- Could connect to [[Productivity & Systems]] (per Chapter 7 framework)
```
The cross-reference suggestions are advisory — they're suggestions for `/sb compile` to act on, not auto-applied. Keep responsibilities separated.
## Step 6 — Offer to capture to second-brain
Ask:
> *"Want to capture this to second-brain? I'll write it to `${SECOND_BRAIN_VAULT:-$HOME/Documents/SecondBrain}/raw/highlights-<slug>.md` matching your vault's `highlights-` type prefix."*
Default is **ask**, never auto-write. If yes:
1. Copy the final `notes.md` (with the second-brain-compatible frontmatter at top) to `${SECOND_BRAIN_VAULT:-$HOME/Documents/SecondBrain}/raw/highlights-<slug>.md`
2. Tell the user the path
3. Suggest: *"Run `/sb compile` later to merge this into wiki pages — the cross-reference suggestions in the footer are starting points."*
If the user skips capture, the workdir still has everything — they can grab the file later.
## Step 7 — Report
In chat:
- One-line headline: `<title> · <author> · <total_pages or word count> · <mode> · <chunks processed>`
- Workdir path
- The TL;DR section
- For `notes` / `study` modes: brief list of top 3 takeaways

Four modes — notes (default, chapter-by-chapter), summary (whole-book TL;DR + 3–5 takeaways), quotes (pull-quote highlights only), study (notes + Q&A spaced-rep prep).
