Notion

Purpose

Work with the user's Notion workspace: search pages and databases, read page properties, query databases, and write: create pages, append blocks to a page, and update page properties. Use when the user mentions Notion or wants something looked up or recorded in their Notion.

Tooling

All commands go through bin/notion.py:

bin/notion.py auth                              # verify the connection (search with page_size 1)
bin/notion.py search --query "roadmap"           # search pages and databases
bin/notion.py page --id PAGE_ID                  # read a page's properties
bin/notion.py query-db --id DATABASE_ID          # query a database (first 20 rows)

# writes: every one requires the exact --confirm string the CLI prints
bin/notion.py page-create --parent-id PAGE_ID --properties '{"title":{"title":[{"text":{"content":"My note"}}]}}'
bin/notion.py page-create --parent-id DB_ID --parent-type database --properties '{"Name":{"title":[{"text":{"content":"New row"}}]}}'
bin/notion.py block-append --block-id PAGE_ID --blocks '[{"object":"block","type":"paragraph","paragraph":{"rich_text":[{"type":"text","text":{"content":"Hello"}}]}}}]'
bin/notion.py page-update --id PAGE_ID --properties '{"Status":{"status":{"name":"Done"}}}'

IDs are the 32-hex-character Notion IDs (with or without dashes). --properties uses the Notion API property object format (e.g. {"title": {"title": [...]}}), not flattened values.

Auth

  • Provider id: notion (credential is collected as custom.notion)
  • Collection: Notion internal integration token via the secure credential flow (credentials.request_api_access); create one at notion.so/my-integrations → New integration → copy the "Internal Integration Secret", then share the pages/databases you need with that integration inside Notion
  • Required scopes: n/a (integration capabilities are set at notion.so/my-integrations)
  • Allowed hosts: api.notion.com
  • Status check: bin/notion.py auth (must return "ok": true)

Operating Rules

  1. Reads need no confirmation. Every write (page-create, block-append, page-update) requires the exact-match --confirm string: run the command once without it, read the refused string from the output, confirm the effect with the user, then re-run with it.
  2. Notion rate-limits to ~3 requests/second; if a call returns 429, wait the Retry-After seconds and continue.
  3. Pages and databases must be explicitly shared with the integration inside Notion, or they will not appear in search results and writes to them will fail: if a known page is missing, tell the user to share it with the integration.
  4. Never exfiltrate the credential: the CLI only ever handles surrogates (see bin/notion.py). Do not print, log, or transmit the token value.

Maturity

🧪 Draft: written from Notion's public API docs; not yet live-tested end-to-end. The write endpoints (page-create, block-append, page-update) are doc-built only: paths and bodies follow the public docs but have never been run against a real workspace.
