silverstein/minutes-weekly
Weekly meeting synthesis — themes, decision arcs, stale commitments, and what deserves your attention next week. Use when the user says "weekly review", "what happened this week", "weekly summary", "recap my week", "any outstanding items", "week in review", or at the end of a work week.

Synthesize a week of policy-authorized normal meetings and voice memos into a
forward-looking brief — themes, decision arcs, stale commitments, and what
deserves attention Monday. Restricted history is excluded by default.
This is a synthesis skill, not a command wrapper. It reads across the normal
meetings authorized by Minutes, cross-references decisions and action items,
and produces an intelligence brief. Restricted meetings are excluded from this
agent workflow by default and must never be treated as absent facts.
minutes list --limit 50
Filter to recordings from the last 7 days by checking the date field in each result's frontmatter. Do NOT use minutes search with a date string as the query — that searches file content, not dates.
For each selected recording, run minutes get "<exact path>" --json, require
exit status 0, and use only the returned content. List/search paths are hints,
not retained capabilities; never reopen them with the host Read tool.
If zero recordings this week:
Say: "No recordings found for the past 7 days. Nothing to synthesize."
Offer: "Want me to look at the past 2 weeks instead?"
Do NOT hallucinate a weekly summary.
If only 1-2 recordings:
Still produce the brief — it's shorter but still valuable. Note: "Light week — only [N] recordings."
Identify the 3-5 dominant themes across the authorized normal meetings this week. A theme is a topic that appeared in 2+ meetings.
For each theme:
Present as:
## This Week's Themes
### 1. Pricing (3 meetings)
- Mon: Case proposed $599 baseline
- Wed: Alex pushed back to annual billing
- Fri: Agreed on monthly billing experiment
- Status: RESOLVED (after 3 discussions)
### 2. Q2 Roadmap (2 meetings)
- Tue: Committed to April ship date
- Thu: Discussed pushing to May
- Status: CONFLICTING — not reconciled
For every decision found in the authorized normal sources this week, search for prior normal-source decisions on the same topic in the last 30 days:
minutes search "<topic>" --since <30-days-ago> --limit 20
Require search exit status 0. Reauthorize any result used in the decision arc
with minutes get "<exact path>" --json; never read a result path directly.
Classify each decision:
Present as a table:
## Decision Arcs
| Decision | Status | Arc | Last Meeting |
|----------|--------|-----|-------------|
| Pricing: monthly billing experiment | VOLATILE | $599→annual billing→monthly billing | Fri w/ Alex |
| Hire senior eng by Q2 | STABLE | Set Mar 10, held | Tue w/ Case |
| Q2 ship date | CONFLICTING | April vs May | Thu w/ team |
If there are CONFLICTING decisions, flag them prominently:
"⚠️ You have conflicting decisions on Q2 ship date. Monday is a good time to reconcile."
Scan authorized normal meetings from the past 30 days for action items:
minutes actions
Require exit status 0. If the native action surface fails, report the source
unavailable; never grep meeting files as a fallback.
Categorize:
Flag overdue items prominently:
"⚠️ 3 action items are overdue. The oldest is from Mar 10 (pricing doc for Alex)."
Run minutes people --json and minutes commitments --json for bounded relationship intelligence. Require exit status 0 from each; a projection failure means unavailable, never “no relationships” or “no commitments.” Continue using source-backed actions and consistency results from the surrounding phases.
Scan ~/.minutes/preps/ for prep files from this week that were never followed by a debrief:
ls ~/.minutes/preps/ 2>/dev/null
For each prep file from the last 7 days: check if a meeting with that person occurred after the prep date. If the user prepped but never debriefed:
"You prepped for a call with Alex on Tuesday but I don't see a debrief. Did the call happen?"
This catches meetings that happened but weren't recorded, or recordings that weren't processed.
Produce a "what deserves your attention Monday" section:
Before deciding how to order the weekly output, check:
node "$MINUTES_SKILLS_ROOT/_runtime/hooks/lib/minutes-learn-cli.mjs" get-presentation-focus weekly
If the result is:
decisions-first → lead with Decision Arcs and unresolved conflicts before commitmentscommitments-first → lead with Action Item Audit / stale commitments before decision arcsmemo-heavy → surface voice memos and idea capture much more prominently in the synthesisUse this concrete ordering:
decisions-firstcommitments-firstmemo-heavyIf there is no preference, keep the default order in this skill.
## Attention Monday
1. **Reconcile Q2 ship date** — April vs May is unresolved.
Last discussed Thu with the team.
2. **Send pricing doc to Alex** — Overdue since Friday.
She's expecting it. This is blocking.
3. **Follow up with Case on competitor grid** — He committed Mar 17.
No update yet. Worth a ping.
Prioritize by: CONFLICTING decisions > overdue action items > open commitments > unresolved preps.
End with three beats:
"Pricing dominated this week — 3 meetings, 3 changes, one resolution. That's behind you now."
"First thing Monday: send the pricing doc to Alex. It's overdue and she's waiting."
