SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It turns scattered meeting transcripts into structured, reusable notes and summaries so you can quickly capture people, decisions, action items, and concepts without manual synthesis.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Monthly batch processing & triage: Scans Meetings/transcripts/ by month, skips empty/suspicious/non-substantive files, and prioritizes substantive notes.
  • Multi-artifact knowledge capture: Generates a meeting summary file, updates/creates People/ notes, creates reusable Concepts/ notes, and records project ideas and action items.
  • Vault graph enrichment with guardrails: Avoids fabrication, uses vault-first deduping for concepts, and enforces identity resolution rules (e.g., no stubs for first-name-only references).

Quick Start

Use the summarize-meetings skill to process the latest month of meeting transcripts in your Obsidian vault and generate summaries, people updates, and concept notes while skipping non-substantive files.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automatically extract action items and people from meeting transcripts?

To extract action items and people from meeting transcripts, you can batch process files in your vault to generate structured summaries, update People notes, and create reusable Concepts notes without manual synthesis.

How do I summarize meeting transcripts for an Obsidian vault?

Summarizing meeting transcripts for an Obsidian vault involves converting transcripts into YAML frontmatter-driven notes across Meetings, People, and Concepts paths, enriching your knowledge graph while enforcing strict no-fabrication rules from the source content.

Can I batch process monthly meeting transcripts to skip empty or logistics-only files?

Yes, you can batch process monthly meeting transcripts to automatically skip empty, corrupt, or logistics-only files, prioritizing substantive transcripts to ensure only meaningful content is captured in your vault.

What is the best way to turn meeting transcripts into knowledge graph notes?

Turning meeting transcripts into knowledge graph notes requires multi-artifact capture: generating meeting summaries, updating or creating People notes, and deduplicating reusable Concepts using vault-first enrichment and identity resolution guardrails.

Does meeting transcript summarization create stub notes for first-name-only references?

No, meeting transcript summarization enforces identity resolution guardrails that prevent creating stub notes for first-name-only references, avoiding clutter and ensuring your vault only contains verified, actionable people entries.

What are the limitations of automated meeting transcript summarization?

Automated meeting transcript summarization is limited by a strict no-fabrication rule, meaning it cannot infer information beyond the transcript content, and it requires deterministic formatting to maintain vault consistency.
