SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Single meeting recaps cannot reveal how decisions evolved, how stakeholder positions shifted, or where contradictions emerged across weeks of meetings. This Skill performs cross-meeting archaeology over a set of recaps or raw notes to surface those hidden patterns.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Cross-meeting pattern extraction: Builds a plain-text timeline, recurring themes with confidence markers, and a consolidated chronological decision list from multiple recaps.
  • Stakeholder and contradiction tracking: Records each stakeholder's position evolution (initial to current) and separates resolved decision evolution from unresolved contradictions needing reconciliation.
  • Format-tailored outputs: Supports board-prep, onboarding, retro-input, and exec-brief hints that reorder the same synthesis for different audiences, plus a project memory contract for durable context.
  • Use Case: Before a quarterly board review, feed it eight sprint-review recaps and receive a narrative summary, prioritized follow-ups, and flagged contradictions showing exactly how the scope decision evolved.

Quick Start

Synthesize all the meeting recaps from this project over the last quarter and show me how decisions and stakeholder positions evolved.

FAQPage Schema
How do I synthesize multiple meeting recaps into one summary?

Provide the set of recap files (or raw notes) covering the period and optionally a time range, topic, or stakeholder filter. The skill loads all sources, runs inference on themes and contradictions, presents a brief summary for confirmation, then produces the full synthesis.

What is the difference between meeting synthesis and interview synthesis?

Meeting synthesis works on internal org meetings, tracking stakeholder alignment, decision evolution, and project history. Interview synthesis targets user-research conversations using research frameworks like jobs-to-be-done; use discover-interview-synthesis for that domain.

Can I use this for a single meeting summary?

No. Single-meeting summaries belong to foundation-meeting-recap. This skill requires multiple meetings over a period, since its value is cross-meeting patterns like decision evolution and contradiction detection.

What output formats does meeting synthesis support?

One process generates the full synthesis, and format hints control presentation: board-prep leads with narrative and contradictions, onboarding with stakeholder tracking, retro-input with themes and stalled threads, and exec-brief with a TL;DR of the top three items.

How are contradictions handled in the synthesis?

Resolved decision changes are recorded as decision evolution without warning emphasis, while currently conflicting decisions or positions appear in a separate unresolved contradictions section with before-and-after source citations and a needs-reconciliation status.
