Instructions

Meeting Preparation

1. Check today's (or tomorrow's) calendar:
   bash

   spark events --today

2. For the specific meeting, search for relevant email context:
   bash

   spark search "meeting topic or project name"

3. Look up attendee details:
   bash

   spark contacts "attendee name"

4. Check recent correspondence with attendees:
   bash

   spark emails --filter "from:attendee@co.com newer_than:14d"

5. Present a prep summary: meeting time, attendees, relevant email context, open questions.

Transcript Review

1. Find the meeting transcript:
   bash

   spark meetings --filter "newer_than:1d"

2. Read the summary:
   bash

   spark meeting <id>

3. For more detail, include the full transcript and notes:
   bash

   spark meeting <id> --transcript --notes

4. Highlight key decisions and action items from the transcript.

Meeting Follow-Up

1. Review the transcript for action items:
   bash

   spark meeting <id> --transcript --notes

2. Look up attendee emails if needed:
   bash

   spark contacts "attendee name"

3. Draft the follow-up:
   bash

   spark draft --to "attendee@co.com" --subject "Follow-up: Meeting Topic" --body "Hi team,\n\nAction items from today's meeting:\n- ..."

4. Always confirm the draft with the user before creating it.

Scheduling

1. Look up attendee emails:
   bash

   spark contacts "name"

2. Find mutual availability:
   bash

   spark availability --attendees alice@co.com,bob@co.com --start 2026-04-10 --end 2026-04-11

3. For a broader window:
   bash

   spark availability --week --attendees alice@co.com,bob@co.com

4. Present the free slots and let the user choose.

Action Item Audit

1. List recent meetings to audit:
   bash

   spark meetings --filter "newer_than:7d"

   Or target a specific recurring meeting:
   bash

   spark meetings --filter "subject:standup newer_than:14d"

2. For each meeting, extract action items from the summary (or full transcript if needed):
   bash

   spark meeting <id>
   spark meeting <id> --transcript --notes

   List every commitment: who committed to what, and any stated deadline.
3. Cross-reference email for follow-through evidence:
   bash

   spark search "action item topic or deliverable"
   spark emails --filter "from:owner@co.com newer_than:7d"

4. For each action item, assign a status:
   • Followed up — found email evidence (cite the thread)
   • In progress — partial evidence or related discussion found
   • No activity — no matching email found
5. Present grouped by meeting, then by status. Highlight items with no activity that are past deadline. Note that some follow-up happens outside Spark (Slack, Linear, etc.), so flag gaps neutrally.

Weekly Meeting Review

1. List this week's meetings:
   bash

   spark events --week

2. Check recent transcripts:
   bash

   spark meetings --filter "newer_than:7d"

3. Summarize: meetings attended, key decisions, outstanding follow-ups.

Tips

• Run

  spark accounts

  to discover available calendars before using

  events --in

  .
• Use

  spark search

  before meetings to find relevant email threads - it returns full bodies.
• Meeting transcripts include AI-generated summaries - start with just

  spark meeting <id>

  before pulling the full transcript.
• When scheduling,

  availability

  respects working hours (08:00-20:00) and skips weekends automatically.
• Combine transcript review with drafting follow-ups in a single flow for efficiency.
• Use

  --filter "subject:standup"

  on

  meetings

  to find recurring meeting transcripts.
• For the action item audit, meeting notes (

  --notes

  ) often contain the clearest commitments. For recurring meetings, audit the last 2–3 sessions to spot items that carry over repeatedly.
