# Meeting To Deal

> Turn meeting transcripts into deal updates — key points, commitments, and next steps posted to matching CRM deals automatically. Auto-creates contacts for new attendees. Use when someone says "log my meetings to deals", "update CRM from calls", "what did I commit to in meetings", "sync notetaker", "log this meeting", "I just had a call with [company]", "what did I promise in that meeting", "add notes from today's calls", or "update the deal after my call".

# Meeting to Opportunity

Flow: **Trigger → Pull meetings → Match → Synthesize → Publish (α) → Auto-contact (β, opt-in) → Proactive next-step nudges (opt-in)**.

## Input
- Optional: time window via argument (default = last 24h).
- Optional: pre-declared mode (Default / Silent / Proactive).

## Output
- **α (default):** One `Meeting recap` update per matched deal, summarizing key points + commitments + next steps. Body carries the `Generated by Claude · <ISO timestamp>` footer + `<!-- claude-skill-id: meeting-to-deal --><!-- meeting-id: <id> -->` comments. A `Meeting sync — <Mon DD>` doc lists what was matched, what wasn't, and unresolved attendees.
- **β (Auto-contact, opt-in):** New items on the Contacts board for meeting attendees not already in CRM, linked back to the matched deal. Each new contact carries `Source = Claude` on a status column.
- **Proactive extension:** `create_notification` to deal owner for commitments due this week. Stage column edits and last-touch updates are also OK in Proactive (or in Default with batched confirm) when a clear transition phrase is present in the transcript ("we agreed to move to procurement review", "they signed today"). Surfaced as a single batched plan: *"<N> stage transitions detected. Apply all / review each / skip stage edits?"*. Amount-column writes still forbidden.

## Knowledge
- Meeting → deal matching heuristic (§ Step 4).
- Update body convention (§ Step 6).
- Shared artifact conventions (§ Shared patterns).

## Tools (MCP)
- `get_user_context` — user identity + email domain for filtering meetings and extracting `internal_domain`.
- `get_notetaker_meetings` — recent meetings + transcripts.
- `search` / `list_workspaces` / `get_board_info` — locate Deals + Contacts boards.
- `get_board_items_page` — fetch active deals to match against.
- `get_column_type_info` — resolve email/company columns by type.
- `create_update` — write the recap onto the matched deal.
- `create_item` — β auto-contact on the Contacts board.
- `change_item_column_values` — populate the new contact's email + company columns, write `Source = Claude` on contacts, and apply confirmed stage / last-touch edits on matched deals. **Never** for amount columns.
- `create_notification` — proactive next-step nudges.
- `create_doc` — sync summary doc.
- `all_monday_api` — escape hatch for connect-board column writes (linking contact ↔ deal). Note: connect-board writes via `all_monday_api` may fail silently — see Error handling reference.

## Cross-skill handoffs
- **From workspace-builder / daily-briefing:** suggested as a way to keep deals fresh after a meeting-heavy day.
- **To data-cleanup:** if >30% of attendees couldn't be matched, suggest running `data-cleanup` to clean contact data.
- **To daily-briefing:** the synced updates feed tomorrow's brief.

## Step 0: Connector check + NoteTaker availability

**Goal:** Confirm the monday connector works and detect whether NoteTaker is available. Also extract `internal_domain` for use in Steps 4–5.

1. Try `mcp__monday__get_user_context`. On error → standard install prompt, stop.
2. Extract `internal_domain` from the user's email (e.g. `"kevin@monday.com"` → `"monday.com"`). Store for Steps 4–5. If email is absent from the response, `internal_domain` = `"monday.com"` (safe default).
3. Try `mcp__monday__get_notetaker_meetings({ limit: 1 })`.
4. If NoteTaker returns results → set `notetaker_available: true`. Continue to Step 1.
5. If NoteTaker returns auth error, permission error, or empty-by-permission → set `notetaker_available: false`. **Do not stop.** The skill will collect meeting content from the user directly in Step 3.

> **PAUSE**: do not write any `create_*` call before Step 6.

---

## Step 1: Detect mode

- **Default** — bundle all writes (recaps + stage edits + last-touch updates + auto-contacts) into a single batched confirm before executing.
- **Silent** — skip the batched confirm; β auto-contact still requires explicit opt-in.
- **Proactive** — ask once: *"Proactive mode will: (a) write recaps to matched deals, (b) auto-create missing contacts, (c) apply stage/last-touch edits when transcripts are unambiguous, (d) notify deal owners on commitments due this week. Amount columns stay untouched. Approve all / review each batch / deny stage edits only?"*. Cache the choice.

If undeclared, **Default**.

Hard safety rail regardless of mode: **no deletes, no amount-column writes, no cross-workspace moves**. Stage transitions are bundled into a batched plan — never written one-off, never silently.

---

## Step 2: Resolve time window

1. If argument carries a phrase, parse: "today" / "yesterday" / "last N days" / "since YYYY-MM-DD".
2. Default = last 24h.
3. If no argument was provided AND 0 meetings are found (or on the very first run with no prior session context), print: *"Using last 24h (no window specified). Add 'yesterday', 'last 7 days', or 'since YYYY-MM-DD' to change the range."*
4. If parsed window > 14 days: confirm via `AskUserQuestion` (large windows produce noisy recaps).

---

## Step 3: Pull meetings

### 3a — NoteTaker path (`notetaker_available: true`)

`mcp__monday__get_notetaker_meetings({ since: <ISO>, until: <ISO>, limit: 50 })`. Cache transcripts + attendees + meeting metadata.

Edge cases:
- **0 meetings in window:** don't stop — fall through to Step 3b to let the user provide meeting content manually. Print: *"No NoteTaker meetings found in `<window>`. You can paste meeting notes or describe what happened instead."*
- **>50 meetings:** paginate up to 200, then cap and surface sampling note.
- **Tool 429:** backoff 3x; on third failure fall through to Step 3b.

### 3b — Manual input path (`notetaker_available: false`, OR NoteTaker returned 0 meetings)

Ask the user once via `AskUserQuestion`:

> *"No NoteTaker recordings available. How would you like to provide meeting notes?"*
> - **(a) Paste the transcript or notes here** — I'll read them from your next message
> - **(b) Point me to a file** — provide the path and I'll read it
> - **(c) Describe what happened** — tell me in free text (attendees, key points, commitments, next steps)
> - **(d) Skip — nothing to log right now**

If **(d)** → stop with: *"No meetings logged. Run this skill again when you have notes to add."*

For **(a)** / **(b)** / **(c)**: treat the user-provided content as a single meeting entry. Structure it as:
- `title`: first line of the notes, or ask if blank
- `date`: today (or extract from notes if mentioned)
- `attendees`: extract from notes, or ask once
- `transcript_text`: the full provided content

Cache as one entry in `meetings[]` with `source: "manual"` and continue to Step 4. The matching and recap flow works identically — the transcript is just from the user's input instead of NoteTaker.

---

## Step 4: Resolve Deals + Contacts boards (Gather)

Resolve the boards directly — this skill is self-contained:

1. **Deals board:** `get_user_context` → scan `favorites` + `relevantBoards` for names matching `deals|opportunities|pipeline|sales`. One candidate → use it; multiple → `AskUserQuestion`; zero → `list_workspaces` → `search("deal", BOARD)`. Still zero → degrade per step 4 below.
2. **Contacts board:** same pass for `contacts|people|leads` (only if β auto-contact may run). If Contacts board is missing and mode = Proactive and β was approved, surface a chat-level message **before** writing the sync doc: *"Auto-contact was approved but I couldn't find a Contacts board. Contacts not created. Run `/monday-crm:workspace-builder` to set one up."* Then continue with α recap only.
3. `get_board_info` on each. Resolve columns by type:
   - On Deals: `email` (if present), `text` company-name, `people` owner, `status` stage, `numbers` value, `date` last-touch.
   - On Contacts: `email`, `text` (or company-link `board_relation`), `phone`, `people` owner.
4. If Deals board missing entirely: degrade — skip α, write only the sync summary doc with "no Deals board found" header. Suggest `/monday-crm:workspace-builder`.

---

## Step 5: Match meetings → deals (Synthesize)

**Goal:** For each meeting, find the single best matching deal — or flag it as unmatched.

`internal_domain` was extracted in Step 0. Use it throughout this step in place of hard-coded `@monday.com` checks.

For each meeting:

1. **Extract signals:** attendee emails (excluding `@<internal_domain>` addresses), company names from email domains, meeting title keywords.
2. **Pull active deals** (Pass A from daily-briefing — non-Won/Lost), `limit: 500`.
3. **Score candidates:**
   - +5 per attendee email matching a deal's email column.
   - +3 per attendee email *domain* matching a deal's company-name column (case-insensitive substring).
   - +2 if meeting title contains a deal name (≥3 contiguous chars match).
   - **+1 if deal owner is a meeting attendee — only when ALL non-internal attendees are from `@<internal_domain>` (i.e. purely internal meeting).** This signal is intentionally narrow: a deal owner being on an external sales call is expected and not a reliable match signal; it only carries weight for internal deal-review meetings where ownership is the strongest available signal.
4. **Pick the top score** if it's ≥5 AND beats the second-best by ≥3. Otherwise flag as **ambiguous** (multiple candidates) or **unmatched** (no candidate ≥5).
5. **Multi-deal meetings:** if top two candidates are within 2 points and both ≥5, flag as multi-match — write the recap to *both* deals with a header line "*Meeting also discussed: <other deal>*".

Edge cases:
- Internal-only meetings (all attendees `@<internal_domain>`) and no deal-name title match: skip (likely standup), log to summary doc as "skipped: internal-only".
- Personal-meetings filter: skip meetings tagged 1:1 (no transcript content of CRM relevance).

---

## Step 6: Synthesize the recap (Synthesize)

For each matched meeting, compose a structured recap from the transcript:

- **Key points** (3–5 bullets, factual — what was discussed).
- **Commitments made** (who → what → by when, parsed from "I'll send you...", "we'll follow up by...", "next week we...").
- **Open questions** (statements ending with `?` or signaled by "we need to figure out", "TBD").
- **Stage transition signal:** if transcript contains procurement / legal / contract / close phrases, propose a stage change. Mark each as `confidence: high|low` based on (a) explicit phrase ("we agreed to <stage>", "signed today") = high, (b) inferred ("seems like they're ready for legal review") = low. Only `high` transitions enter the batched plan; `low` ones surface as text recommendations.

Deal-side metadata lookup: pull current stage + value + close date for context (single `get_board_items_page` filtered to the matched item ID).

---

## Step 7: Publish α — per-deal recap (Publish)

For each matched meeting + deal pair:

1. **Idempotency check:** Use `all_monday_api` with the following query pattern to scan existing updates on the deal item:
   ```graphql
   { items_by_id(ids: [<dealId>]) { updates(limit: 50) { body } } }
   ```
   Walk the `body` of each returned update and check for both `<!-- claude-skill-id: meeting-to-deal -->` and `<!-- meeting-id: <id> -->`. If a match is found → use `all_monday_api` to update that existing update's body; do not post a duplicate.
   
   > **Note:** `mcp__monday__search` cannot search update bodies — always use `all_monday_api` items_by_id for this check.

2. `create_update({ itemId: <dealId>, body: <recap markdown> })`.
3. Update body shape:

```markdown
# Meeting recap — <meeting title>
*<meeting date> · <duration>m · <attendee count> attendees*

## Key points
- ...

## Commitments
- <person> → <commitment> (due <date or "open">)

## Open questions
- ...

## Stage signal
<"applied: <old> → <new>" if the batched plan included it> OR <text recommendation if low-confidence> OR "no stage change">

---
<!-- claude-skill-id: meeting-to-deal -->
<!-- meeting-id: <noteTakerMeetingId> -->
Generated by Claude · <ISO timestamp> · run `/monday-crm:meeting-to-deal` to refresh.
```

### Batched confirm (Default mode)

Before any write, print a single plan:
*"I'll write: <N> recaps · <S> stage edits (high-confidence only) · <L> last-touch updates · <C> new contacts. <U> meetings unmatched (will list separately). <K> low-confidence stage signals will surface as text only. Proceed? (yes / show plan in detail / no)."*

If user picks "show plan in detail":
1. List **all** stage transitions by name: `<deal name> · <old stage> → <new stage>` for every planned stage edit.
2. Show one example recap (the first deal).
3. Then confirm: *"Apply all? (yes / skip stage edits / no)"*.

Never per-deal confirms beyond that.

**Auto-contact cap warning:** If unmatched-attendee count > 25, add to the confirm message: *"<N> new contacts detected (> 25 cap). I'll create 25 and add the rest to a review-list doc. Proceed?"* (e.g. "31 new contacts detected (> 25 cap). I'll create 25 and add the rest to a review-list doc. Proceed?")

---

## Step 8: β — auto-create missing contacts (opt-in)

**Goal:** Don't make the user manually add every meeting attendee to Contacts.

Only runs if mode = Proactive (option a) OR Default-mode user opts in at Step 7 confirm (added prompt: "+ create N missing contacts on Contacts board?").

For each unique attendee email not found on the Contacts board:
1. `create_item({ boardId: <contactsBoard>, itemName: "<First Last>", groupId: "new" })`.
2. `change_item_column_values` to populate email, company (from email domain), and `Source = Claude` on the board's source/status column. If no source/status column exists, prompt the user once: *"Add a `Source` status column on Contacts so we can flag plugin-created records? (yes / skip)"*. If skipped, contacts are still created but source isn't tracked.
3. Link the new contact to the matched deal via the `board_relation` column using `all_monday_api`. If this call fails (connect-board writes can fail silently), log the contact as "contact created, deal link pending — set manually" in the sync doc rather than stopping. Do not retry silently.

Cap at 25 contacts per run. Above that, batch into a review-list doc rather than creating silently. (Flag this at Step 7 confirm time — see auto-contact cap warning above.)

---

## Step 9: Proactive next-step nudges (opt-in)

Only runs if mode = Proactive AND session-level approval was given.

For commitments parsed in Step 6 with a parseable due-date within next 7 days:
- `create_notification({ userId: <deal owner>, text: "Commitment due <date> on <deal>: <commitment>" })`.
- If `create_notification` requires an `itemId`: use the **sync doc's item ID** (from Step 10's `create_doc` return value). Do **not** pin the notification to an arbitrary deal item when the doc covers cross-deal commitments.

Hard rail: never write commitments to amount columns. Notifications only for proactive nudges (stage edits already handled in Step 7's batched plan, not here).

If >20 nudges queued, batch into one `This week's commitments` doc (with `<!-- claude-skill-id: meeting-to-deal -->` in body) and notify once with a link to the doc.

---

## Step 10: Sync summary doc + close the loop

`create_doc` (idempotent — same-day update-in-place):

```markdown
# Meeting sync — <Mon DD>

## Matched (<N>)
- <meeting title> → <deal name> (<deal url>)

## Multi-match (<N>)
- <meeting title> → <deal A> + <deal B>

## Ambiguous (<N>)
- <meeting title> — candidates: <deal A>, <deal B> — review and re-run with explicit deal ID

## Unmatched (<N>)
- <meeting title> — attendees: <emails> — no matching deal. Suggest creating one.

## Skipped (<N>)
- <meeting title> — internal-only, no CRM relevance

## Contacts created (<N>)
- <name> (<email>) → linked to <deal>

## Contacts pending manual link (<N>)
- <name> (<email>) — contact created, deal link pending — set manually

---
Generated by Claude · <ISO timestamp>
```

One-line chat summary: `Synced <N> meetings to <M> deals. <K> unmatched, <L> contacts created. Doc: <url>.`

---

## Shared patterns

- **No prefix on titles.** Findability via `Generated by Claude` footer + `<!-- claude-skill-id: meeting-to-deal -->` comment in update/doc bodies; `Source = Claude` on contact items.
- **Embedded meeting-id comment** + skill-id comment for idempotency — search-and-update, never duplicate.
- **Safety rail.** No deletes, no amount-column writes, no cross-workspace moves. Stage edits go through the batched plan; low-confidence transitions stay as text recommendations only.
- **Type-based column resolution** for non-English boards.
- **Batched confirms** (Step 7) — never per-meeting prompts.
- **Internal-only meeting filter** — skips standups, 1:1s, retro meetings.
- **`internal_domain` from Step 0** used throughout for internal/external attendee classification — not hard-coded to `@monday.com`.
- **Skill-id comment uses legacy name `meeting-to-opportunity`** — kept for backward compatibility with existing updates/docs carrying `<!-- claude-skill-id: meeting-to-opportunity -->`. The skill's invocation name is `/monday-crm:meeting-to-deal`.
