## Instructions

1. Analyze the conversation to extract:
   - A concise, descriptive title
   - Relevant topic tags (always include `llm_convo`, then add 1-3 topic tags)
   - A 2-3 sentence summary
   - Key points and arguments as a bullet list
   - Optional 2-3 sentence conclusion

2. For timestamps:
   - Notes: use org-style `[YYYY-MM-DD Day]` (e.g., `[2026-01-10 Sat]`)
   - Blog: use date only `YYYY-MM-DD` (e.g., `2026-01-10`)

3. Chat URL: use placeholder `https://claude.ai/chat/CHAT_ID_HERE` — user will replace manually.

4. For blog posts:
   - Set `math = true` only if the conversation involves mathematical notation
   - Infer `subtitle` as a one-line expansion of the title
   - Infer `description` as a 1-2 sentence SEO-friendly summary
   - Infer `tags` consistent with the org-mode tags used in headlines

5. Output the org snippet in a code block so user can copy-paste easily.
