SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Long documents, meeting transcripts, and email threads often get summarized poorly: the back half gets dropped, the style doesn't match the content type, or key numbers and action items are lost. This Skill classifies the input first, picks an appropriate summary style, and folds long content forward section by section so nothing is silently lost. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Content-aware style selection: Detects whether input is a transcript, email, or business document and applies matching output styles (brief, detailed, bullets, executive, action items, key decisions, participants, topics). - Long-document fold-forward: Uses the summarize_document tool or a manual map-reduce procedure that summarizes each chunk against a running summary, preventing repetition and dropped content. - Metric-first business summaries: Prioritizes numbers, financial data, and strategic outcomes over marketing language for board-ready output. - Use Case: Paste a 90-minute meeting transcript and ask for action items — the Skill classifies it as a transcript, extracts the full text, and produces a list of assignments with owners. ## Quick Start Summarize the attached meeting transcript and list the action items and key decisions.

FAQPage Schema
How to extract action items from a meeting transcript?

Classify the input as a transcript, retrieve the full text, then request a detailed summary so nothing is dropped and write the action item list yourself from the text. Include who each item was assigned to when stated.

What summary types does summarize_document support?

The summary_type parameter accepts only brief, detailed, or bullets; any other value returns an error. Styles like executive, action_items, or key_decisions are shapes you write yourself on top of one of those three tool outputs.

Can I summarize pasted text instead of an indexed file?

Yes. For pasted text or plain text files, read_file is sufficient and no indexing is needed. For indexed documents, check list_indexed_documents first and call index_document if the file is not already indexed.

Why does my summary repeat itself across sections?

Repetition happens when chunks are summarized in isolation and concatenated. The fold-forward method avoids this by summarizing each new chunk against the running summary and outputting only facts not already captured.
