SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Contracts, reports, and scanned forms hide deadlines, obligations, and risks inside dense prose, and manually turning them into tasks loses citations, misreads modality, and invents owners or dates. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Provenance-preserving extraction: Pulls text and tables via the pdf and docx skills while retaining file and page/section citations, including OCR confidence for scans. - Evidence classification and validation: Separates parties, dates, money, obligations, and risks, preserving "may"/"should"/"must" distinctions and cross-checking dates, totals, and defined terms. - Approval-gated task creation: Converts obligations into proposed actions with owner, due date, and citation, then writes to Notion, calendars, or spreadsheets only after explicit user approval and read-back verification. - Use Case: Upload a signed vendor contract and receive a structured list of payment deadlines, renewal obligations, and risk clauses, each cited to its page, ready to push into your task tracker after review. ## Quick Start Extract all deadlines, obligations, and owners from the attached contract and propose cited action items for my review.

Frequently Asked Questions about document-to-action-items

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I extract deadlines and obligations from a contract?▼

Load the document through the pdf or docx skill, then classify extracted content into dates, obligations, parties, and risks while keeping page citations. Each obligation becomes a proposed action with owner, due date, and citation for your approval.

How to turn a PDF report into tasks automatically?▼

The skill inventories the document, extracts text with provenance, validates dates and totals, then proposes tasks with citations. Tasks are only written to Notion, a calendar, or a spreadsheet after you explicitly approve the scope.

Does document extraction work with scanned forms?▼

Yes, but scanned documents go through OCR, and the skill records OCR confidence and visible quality issues rather than treating output as exact. Low-confidence fields stay flagged in the final output for review.

Can it create tasks in Notion without my approval?▼

No. Drafting proposed tasks is separate from creating records; any write to an external tracker requires your explicit approval of scope. After writing, records are read back and verified for owner, date, and link.

What are the limitations of automated obligation extraction?▼

Extraction is not legal advice, and ambiguous or unreadable clauses remain visible rather than resolved silently. Unknown owners or dates are marked unresolved, and professional review is recommended for legal, medical, tax, or safety-critical interpretation.
