  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • 8 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by tashfeenahmed on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Notion AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/tashfeenahmed/scallopbot/tree/main/src/skills/bundled/notion
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/tashfeenahmed/scallopbot.git /tmp/scallopbot
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/scallopbot/src/skills/bundled/notion .claude/skills/notion
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Notion in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Notion on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Notion is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Typed Notion API

Handles Notion API version 2025-09-03, resolves databases, types property values from the schema, checks HTTP status, and returns compact JSON.

Workflow for a write (one call is usually enough):

  1. create with database (a title such as "gym tracker") or a known database_id/data_source_id, and plain properties. The tool looks the database up in its memory or by search, fetches the schema, and types the values for you. The result includes resolved_from when it resolved a title.
  2. Only if the database is unknown: known (remembered databases, free) or search. Never invent an ID.
  3. schema only when a property error asks for it; errors already list the valid property names and types.
  4. Trust completion only when the tool returns success: true with a page_id.

create/update return {page_id, url, title, properties} with flat values. An Unknown database id error means the ID does not exist; it lists the databases the tool knows. It is not a permission problem unless the error says HTTP 401 or 403.

Query responses are compact and date-sorted. For repeated entities, use result.stats_by_title[].latest for the newest dated record and maxima for numeric records. Never infer a personal record, improvement, increase, or trend from an arbitrary row or from response order. Preserve user-supplied titles and labels exactly on writes; do not add modalities such as “Dumbbell” or “each arm”.

Examples:

json
{"action":"create","database":"gym tracker","properties":{"Name":"Pectoral machine","Date":"2026-08-21","Type":"Machine","Sets":3,"Reps":6,"Weight (kg)":45}}
json
{"action":"query","database":"gym tracker","filter":{"property":"Date","date":{"equals":"2026-07-13"}}}
json
{"action":"known"}

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Notion AI skill do?

Typed Notion API access. Remembers databases across turns, accepts plain values for properties (Sets:3, Date:"2026-08-21"), and returns compact verified results. Prefer this over raw curl or notion-cli.

Why use Notion on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Notion is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Notion in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/tashfeenahmed/scallopbot/tree/main/src/skills/bundled/notion. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Notion?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Notion?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Notion with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Notion AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by tashfeenahmed under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
