SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Contracts, reports, and scanned forms hide deadlines, obligations, and risks inside dense text, and manually turning them into tasks loses citations and misreads ambiguous language. This Skill converts documents into cited facts and proposed actions while preserving uncertainty and provenance. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Cited Extraction: Pulls parties, dates, deadlines, money, obligations, and risks with file and page/section citations for every field. - Modality Preservation: Keeps the distinction between "may", "should", and "must", and flags low-confidence OCR or unreadable clauses instead of guessing. - Approved Task Creation: Converts obligations into proposed actions with owner, due date, dependency, and risk, then writes to Notion, calendars, or spreadsheets only after explicit user approval. - Use Case: Upload a vendor contract and receive a structured list of payment deadlines, renewal obligations, and risk clauses, each linked to its source page, ready to push into your task tracker. ## Quick Start Extract all deadlines, obligations, and follow-up tasks from the attached contract and list them with page citations 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?▼

Provide the contract file or URL and the Skill inventories versions, extracts text with page citations, classifies dates, obligations, and risks, then proposes action items with owners and due dates. Nothing is written to external trackers without your approval.

How to turn a PDF report into tasks automatically?▼

The Skill loads the pdf or docx extraction skills to pull text and tables with coordinates, validates dates and totals internally, then converts each actionable obligation into a proposed task with citation, dependency, and acceptance condition for your review.

Does document extraction work with scanned or low-quality files?▼

Yes, but scanned files go through OCR with recorded confidence levels. Low-confidence fields and unreadable clauses are surfaced explicitly rather than treated as exact, so you can verify them before approving any tasks.

Can extracted action items be sent to Notion or a calendar?▼

Yes, after you approve the proposed tasks, the Skill writes records to Notion, a calendar, or a spreadsheet via xlsx, attaching document and page provenance. Every write is read back and verified for owner, date, and link.

What are the limitations of automated obligation extraction?▼

Extraction is not legal advice, and ambiguous language stays flagged rather than resolved. Unknown owners or dates remain unresolved instead of invented, and legal, medical, tax, or safety-critical interpretation should get professional review.
