tools-only Meeting Intelligence Reference
Process meetings from Granola to extract structured insights, action items, and update person pages.
How It Works
Meetings sync automatically in the background every 30 minutes. No terminal commands shown during /process-meetings.
Granola App → Background Sync (every 30 min) → Synced Files → /process-meetings → Person Pages, Tasks
Setup (One-Time, 30 Seconds)
cd .scripts/meeting-intel && ./install-automation.sh
Requirements:
- Granola app installed (granola.ai)
- An LLM API key in
.env(GEMINI_API_KEY, ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, or OPENAI_API_KEY)
Check status:
.scripts/meeting-intel/install-automation.sh --status
Using /process-meetings
After setup, /process-meetings reads synced files and updates your vault:
/process-meetings # Process all synced meetings (last 7 days)
/process-meetings today # Just today's meetings
/process-meetings "Acme" # Find meetings by title/attendee
/process-meetings --setup # Install/check background automation
Flags:
--people-only— Only update person/company pages (skip tasks)--no-todos— Create notes but don't extract tasks--days-back=N— Override default 7-day lookback
What gets updated:
- Person pages (05-Areas/People/) — meeting references, last interaction dates
- Company pages (05-Areas/Companies/) — key contacts, meeting history
- Tasks (03-Tasks/Tasks.md) — action items extracted from meetings
What Gets Extracted
The background sync uses your LLM API to extract:
- Summary (2-3 sentences)
- Key discussion points with context
- Decisions made
- Action items (for you and others, with task IDs for sync)
- Customer intelligence (pain points, feature requests, competitive mentions)
- Pillar classification based on your
System/pillars.yaml
Output location: 00-Inbox/Meetings/YYYY-MM-DD/meeting-slug.md
Configuration
Meeting intelligence is configured in System/user-profile.yaml:
meeting_intelligence:
extract_customer_intel: true # Pain points, requests
extract_competitive_intel: true # Competitor mentions
extract_action_items: true # Always recommended
extract_decisions: true # Always recommended
Internal vs external classification uses your email_domain setting.
Manual Sync (Optional)
To force a sync outside the 30-min schedule:
node .scripts/meeting-intel/sync-from-granola.cjs # Process now
node .scripts/meeting-intel/sync-from-granola.cjs --dry-run # Preview
node .scripts/meeting-intel/sync-from-granola.cjs --force # Reprocess today
Stopping Background Sync
.scripts/meeting-intel/install-automation.sh --stop

Troubleshooting
No meetings showing up?
- Make sure Granola is running during meetings
- Check if background sync is set up:
./install-automation.sh --status - Check logs for errors:
tail -50 .scripts/logs/meeting-intel.stderr.log
Background sync not running?
cd .scripts/meeting-intel && ./install-automation.sh
