foundation-meeting-recap

Original：🇺🇸 English

Translated

Produces a topic-segmented post-meeting summary for attendees with decisions highlighted and actions captured inline per topic (plus a consolidated action view at the end). Auto-populates topic skeleton from a sibling meeting-agenda when available and reconciles planned vs. actual topics. Accepts transcripts from Zoom, Meet, Otter, Fireflies, Krisp MCP, or manual notes; runs on variable-quality input without blocking.

Meeting Recap

A meeting recap is a post-meeting topic-segmented summary produced for attendees and light distribution. It organizes content by topic rather than chronology, highlights decisions visually, and captures actions inline (with owner, due date, dependencies) per topic segment, plus a consolidated actions view at the end for scannability.

This skill absorbs what would otherwise be a separate "meeting-actions" skill. Actions in this family live alongside the context that makes them meaningful, not in a sibling artifact.

This skill belongs to the Meeting Skills Family. It conforms to the Meeting Skills Family Contract.

When to Use

After any internal meeting that produces decisions or actions affecting attendees
When a sibling
```
/meeting-agenda
```
exists and needs reconciliation (planned vs. actual topics)
When the team needs a topic-organized reference rather than a chronological transcript dump
When inputs include a transcript (Zoom, Meet, Otter, Fireflies, Krisp MCP) or mixed notes and transcript

When NOT to Use

Communicating outcomes to non-attendees. Use
```
/stakeholder-update
```
. recap assumes reader context; stakeholder-update translates to readers without it.
Cross-meeting synthesis (patterns across multiple meetings). Use
```
/meeting-synthesize
```
.
Live meeting note-taking. This skill consumes finished inputs; it does not transcribe live.

Zero-friction execution

Per the family contract, this skill never blocks on interrogation. Default flow:

Read all provided inputs (transcript, notes, or hybrid) and note input quality upfront
Auto-discover related agenda via filename-prefix match on same-directory
```
*_{title}_agenda.md
```
Run inference: meeting metadata from content, decisions from language markers, actions from imperative-future patterns, owners from attendee context
Present a brief inference summary and accept one-word
```
go
```
or corrections
Produce the recap

If invoked with

--go

, skip the inference summary. If the user provides all metadata upfront, no checkpoint appears.

Fabrication prohibition

This skill never fabricates owners, decisions, or actions. When an action lacks an explicit owner, it is captured as

[owner: unassigned, needs confirmation]

not invented. When a decision is implicit ("it sounded like we decided X"), it is flagged with a confidence marker rather than stated as fact. Trust decay from fabrication is worse than the mild friction of flagging.

Ownership reconciliation threshold (v1.1.0)

When the ratio of unassigned actions to total actions exceeds 0.3 (30%), OR when any high-priority action lacks an owner, the skill surfaces a dedicated

## ⚠ Ownership reconciliation required

section at the top of the recap (above the topic segments) listing:

All unassigned actions
A suggested next step for each (who should probably own this based on topic context, flagged as inference)
A recommended follow-up action (Slack thread, 15-min sync, async survey)

The shareable summary also leads with this flag when triggered:

⚠ Ownership reconciliation required: N of M actions lack owners.

The

unassigned_action_ratio

frontmatter field (float 0.0–1.0) records the ratio for downstream tools.

Rationale: a recap with 60% ownerless actions is "non-fabricated" (per the prohibition above) but operationally broken. a pile of broken tickets. The threshold makes this visible instead of silently shipping.

Instructions

When asked to create a meeting recap, follow these steps:

Parse inputs and detect type Transcript (timestamped speaker-attributed lines), notes (bullet or prose), or hybrid. Note input quality upfront. transcript plus structured notes is high; scrappy bullets is low.
Auto-discover related agenda Look in the same directory for a file matching the pattern
```
{YYYY-MM-DD}_{HH-MMtimezone}_{title-slug}_agenda.md
```
. If found, load it. its topic list is the recap's topic skeleton and its
```
desired_outcomes
```
drive the meeting-quality reconciliation.
Present go-mode inference summary Show detected meeting date, title, attendees (if inferred), input quality assessment. Accept
```
go
```
or corrections.
Topic-segment the content
- If agenda was loaded, use its topic list as scaffold (plus any emergent topics)
- If no agenda, identify topics from transcript discourse markers ("moving on to", "the other thing")
Per topic segment, extract
- Discussion summary: 2-3 sentences capturing what was discussed
- Decisions made: bold-flagged visually. Never fabricate. if uncertain, flag "appears to have decided X [confidence: medium]"
- Actions: owner + due date + dependencies. Flag missing owners as
```
[owner: unassigned]
```
  and missing dates as
```
[due: not specified]
```
  . Never invent.
- Open questions: unresolved items with confidence marker on whether they are truly unresolved or simply not re-raised
Consolidate actions by owner Regroup all actions under each owner. Enables single-owner scan ("what do I owe after this meeting?").
Reconcile agenda (if agenda loaded)
- ```
topics_planned
```
  : from agenda topic list
- ```
topics_hit
```
  : topics actually discussed
- ```
topics_skipped
```
  : planned but not discussed, with brief reason
- ```
topics_emerged
```
  : discussed but not on agenda
Assess meeting quality signals
- ```
outcomes_achieved
```
  : N/M ratio of agenda
```
desired_outcomes
```
  met (when agenda present)
- ```
started_on_time
```
  /
```
ended_on_time
```
  : from timestamps when available; skipped when not
- ```
key_attendees_present
```
  : flag if decision-makers were absent
Surface next steps When we reconvene, what needs to happen on the critical path before that.
Render TEMPLATE.md and validate

Quality checklist

Input quality flagged honestly (high / medium / low)
Agenda auto-discovery attempted; result noted in Generation context
Every topic segment has Discussion / Decisions / Actions / Open questions subsections
Decisions are bold-flagged; never invented; confidence marked when inferred
Every action has owner (or explicit
```
unassigned
```
) + due date (or explicit
```
not specified
```
)
Consolidated actions view regrouped by owner
Agenda reconciliation populated when agenda was loaded
Meeting quality signals populated with data available; skipped fields flagged
Shareable summary 5-6 lines, lead with decisions and top actions
Sources and References Generation context notes transcript source and any missing owners/dates
