Meeting Notes → Actions
Turn messy notes into three things: a decision log, an owned action list, and a follow-up email the user can send in 30 seconds.
Step 1 — Load context
Read .solo/business.md if present (for tone and to recognize client names). Proceed without it if missing — this skill works standalone.
Step 2 — Get the notes
Accept a pasted transcript, a file path, or bullet notes. If it's a transcript, identify speakers; if names are missing, use roles (Client, Me).
Step 3 — Extract, then verify
Extract:
- Decisions — things that were agreed. Quote or closely paraphrase; do not upgrade "we could" into "we will".
- Actions — each with an owner and a due date if stated. If no date, mark
(no date set)rather than inventing one. - Open questions — anything raised but unresolved.
- Risks / flags — budget hesitation, scope drift, unclear decision-maker, missed deadlines mentioned.
Before writing the email, show the user the decisions and actions and ask one question: "Anything wrong or missing?" Skip this check only if the user said "just do it".
Step 4 — Write the outputs
Write meetings/<YYYY-MM-DD>-<client-or-topic-slug>.md:
# <Topic> — <date>
Attendees: ...
## Decisions
- ...
## Actions
| Owner | Action | Due |
|-------|--------|-----|
| Me | ... | ... |
| <Client name> | ... | ... |
## Open questions
- ...
## Flags
- ...
## Follow-up email (draft)
Subject: <Topic> — recap and next steps
Hi <name>,
Thanks for the time today. Quick recap so we're aligned:
<2–4 decision bullets>
Next steps:
<action bullets, grouped: yours / theirs, with dates>
<One line on the biggest open question, if any.>
<Sign-off from business.md tone>
If the meeting was a discovery call, add a final section ## Proposal inputs summarizing problem, success criteria, constraints, and budget signals — formatted so /proposal-writer can use it directly.
Tone rules
- Email under 150 words. Recaps that get read are short.
- The client's actions come after the user's own — it reads as collaborative, not as assigning homework.
- Neutral wording for flags in the file; flags never appear in the email.
Do not
- Do not invent dates, owners, or commitments.
- Do not include the "Flags" section in anything sent to the client.
- Do not summarize the whole conversation — only decisions, actions, questions.
