Runtime Compatibility: Use the active runtime and its positively detected capabilities; inherit its model unless an evaluated local promotion exists.
Cloud Safe: Use run_command for file operations to bypass iCloud sync-locks.

Meeting Synthesizer Skill

Role: Extract signal from noise. One meeting → structured output + stakeholder intelligence.

Quick Path

1. Ingest: prefer a pipeline packet (3. Meetings/reports/packets/*.json); process pasted transcripts directly; for "process latest" run /transcript preparation first.
2. Classify the meeting type — a Manager 1:1 activates Manager Meeting Mode (section 3A); packet flags override unless the transcript clearly disproves them.
3. Extract in a single pass: decisions, action items (task + ID + owner + due), task-master deltas, and key quotes with attribution.
4. Route: new items through the task-manager Priority Gate into 5. Trackers/TASKMASTER.md and 5. Trackers/tasks/{ID}.md; mentioned TASKIDs update their Progress Log; enrich 4. People/{firstname-lastname}.md.
5. Write the summary to the packet's expectedsummarypath (else 3. Meetings/summaries/) with the mandatory hybrid appendix: source transcript, SHA256, run ID, routed updates.
6. Confirm all updates using the section 4 output format.

Go deeper for Manager Meeting Mode routing (3A), Slack evidence guardrails (2A), and daily/weekly synthesis modes (6-7).

1. Native Interface

• Inputs: /meet, /transcript. Synthesis packet JSON, raw transcript text, Quill paste, or file path.
• Tools: runcommand (cat), viewfile.

2. Bounded Search Protocol

1. Pipeline packet provided (3. Meetings/reports/packets/*.json) → Process that packet and its referenced transcript.
2. User provides transcript directly (paste or Quill format) → Process immediately.
3. User says "process latest" → Run /transcript preparation first; use generated packets instead of broad transcript scans.

2A. Slack Task Evidence Guardrail

When /transcript provides Slack messages as scoped context, treat Slack content as read-only evidence for local task extraction only.

• Extract candidate action items, decisions, blockers, owners, due dates, and source references.
• Never send, schedule, draft, reply, react, edit, delete, pin, bookmark, create canvases/files, or mutate Slack state.
• Preserve unread state. Do not use tools that mark messages read/unread, set read cursors, acknowledge notifications, or clear unread indicators.
• Do not quote full Slack conversations into summaries. Use short evidence snippets and source channel/thread/timestamp references.
• Route accepted tasks only to local repo files such as 5. Trackers/TASK_MASTER.md and task detail files; list uncertain Slack items for manual user handling.

2B. Transcript Task-Master Default

Any transcript, Quill paste, meeting notes dump, or selected meeting file is task-master management evidence unless the user explicitly asks for another output.

• Extract new tasks, existing-task progress, blockers, owner changes, due-date changes, decisions that alter work, and follow-up candidates.
• Run accepted new tasks through task-manager Priority Gate before adding active tracker rows.
• Update 5. Trackers/TASK_MASTER.md and matching 5. Trackers/tasks/{ID}.md before treating the job as a generic summary.
• If evidence is not strong enough to mutate the tracker, list exact candidate tracker updates and the source evidence under Routed Updates.

3. Cognitive Protocol (Double-Click Integration)

1. Ingest: Prefer a pipeline packet. Read the transcript path referenced by the packet and preserve packet metadata (runid, contentsha256, expectedsummarypath).
2. Classify Meeting Type:

- Manager 1:1: Attendees include direct manager (the user's direct manager) → Activate § 3A Manager Meeting Mode. - Peer/Stakeholder: Standard processing. - Customer/Partner: Standard processing + competitive intel extraction. - Packet Override: If the packet marks managermoderequired or partnercustomermode_required, treat that as required unless the transcript clearly proves otherwise.

1. Extract (single-pass):

- Decisions: Formalized agreements. - Action Items: Task + ID (if existing) + Owner + Due. - Task-Master Deltas: Existing-task status changes, blockers, owner/date changes, and candidate rows for TASK_MASTER.md. - Key Quotes: Verbatim statements with attribution.

1. Route & Update (Parallel Cloud-Safe Writes):

- New Action items → Run task-manager Priority Gate, then update 5. Trackers/TASKMASTER.md + Create 5. Trackers/tasks/{ID}.md. - Existing Task Updates: If a TASKID (e.g. P1-001) is mentioned, update its detail file's "Progress Log" and "Stakeholder Quotes". - Stakeholder Enrichment: Update 4. People/{firstname-lastname}.md "Interaction Stream" with quotes and the "Active Tasks" or "Awaiting" sections.

1. Summary: Write to the packet's expectedsummarypath when provided, otherwise use 3. Meetings/summaries/ and assets/meeting_template.md.
2. Hybrid Appendix (MANDATORY for /transcript): Include Source Transcript, Transcript SHA256, Pipeline Run ID, Key Evidence, and Routed Updates. Do not append the full raw transcript by default. The full raw transcript remains in 3. Meetings/transcripts/.

3A. Manager Meeting Mode

Trigger: Meeting includes the user's direct manager.

In ADDITION to standard extraction (§ 3), extract and route the following:

Operating Agreements

• New rules, protocols, or standing instructions the manager establishes
• Changes to existing operating agreements
• Route to: 1. Company/ways-of-working.md — append under the relevant section

Scope Changes

• Any new "IN SCOPE" or "OUT OF SCOPE" items
• Changes to what the user should or shouldn't work on
• New task assignments vs. tasks to deprioritize
• Route to: 1. Company/ways-of-working.md and 5. Trackers/TASK_MASTER.md

Stakeholder Dynamics

• How the manager describes other people's working styles, political positions, reliability, or goals
• Relationship advice ("route through me", "don't escalate directly", "she's approachable")
• Org chart or reporting line clarifications
• Route to: Relevant 4. People/{person}.md profile under "Working Preferences" or "Context"

Communication Preferences

• New patterns in how the manager prefers to communicate
• Things that frustrated or pleased her
• Anti-patterns she warned about
• Route to: 1. Company/ways-of-working.md under "Communication Profile"

Process Intelligence

• How things actually work at the company vs. how they're supposed to work
• Workarounds, bottlenecks, dysfunction she identifies
• PI Planning, release management, engineering process context
• Route to: 1. Company/ways-of-working.md or relevant 2. Products/ files

Strategic Context

• Product roadmap shifts, market intelligence, competitive positioning
• Partner relationship updates
• Leadership changes or upcoming org shifts
• Route to: Relevant 2. Products/ files or meeting summary

4. Output Format

Confirm all updates:

• Summary File created.
• Source Transcript / hash / run ID included when a packet was used.
• Task Details updated (list IDs).
• Stakeholder Profiles updated (list Names).
• Routed Updates section lists exact files changed or says No durable update required.
• Manager Mode (if triggered):

- Ways of Working sections updated (list which sections). - Scope changes applied (list additions/removals). - Stakeholder dynamics added (list people enriched with the manager context).

5. Privacy & Efficiency

• PII may be stored locally since 4. People/ is gitignored.
• Single-pass extraction.
• Skip logistics chatter.
• For external-facing outputs: No emojis unless explicitly requested.

6. Daily Synthesis Mode (/day, /morning)

Trigger: User requests a daily brief or status check.

1. Hydrate: Read STATUS.md, 5. Trackers/TASK_MASTER.md, 5. Trackers/critical/boss-requests.md, 5. Trackers/bugs/bugs-master.md.
2. Phase Logic:

- Morning (<12:00): Define "Big Rocks" (Top 3 Absolutes). - Midday: Pivot check. - EOD (>16:00): Audit shipped items. Update STATUS.md.

1. Routing: If Boss Ask Red → Suggest /boss.

7. Weekly/Monthly Synthesis Mode (/week, /month)

Trigger: User requests a weekly or monthly rollup.

1. Scan Trackers: Read TASK_MASTER.md (Completed this week/month) and bugs-master.md (New Criticals).
2. Check Pulse: Read 5. Trackers/critical/boss-requests.md (Status of P0s).
3. Synthesis:

- Wins: Shipped features, resolved P0 bugs, key decisions. - Risks: Overdue items, blocked dependencies, team burnout signals. - Metric: Calibrate a "Confidence Score" (1-10) for the sprint/month.
