Meeting Notes To Actions

Community

meeting-notes-to-actions

Turn raw meeting notes into a shareable summary, an action-item table with owners and deadlines, and follow-up email drafts. Use when the user says "process my meeting notes", "extract action items", "who owns what from this meeting", or "draft the follow-ups" — or pastes messy notes right after a meeting.

Installation

Install the Meeting Notes To Actions AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
https://github.com/sgharlow/claude-code-recipes/tree/main/skills/meeting-notes-to-actions
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Claude Code — .claude/skills

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/sgharlow/claude-code-recipes.git /tmp/claude-code-recipes
mkdir -p .claude/skills

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Meeting Notes To Actions in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Meeting Notes To Actions on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Meeting Notes To Actions is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

Loaded only when it is needed
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Switch models mid-chat
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Meeting Notes to Action Items

Convert disorganized meeting notes into structured accountability: a clean summary, an action-item table, and a personalized follow-up draft per owner. Work only from what the notes actually say — never invent owners, deadlines, or decisions that are not in the notes.

Steps

Get the notes. Accept pasted text, a file path, or a transcript. If the notes name attendees ambiguously (initials, first names shared by two people), ask the user to resolve them before assigning ownership.
Extract, citing the notes:
- Decisions made — each with the sentence in the notes that records it.
- Action items — task, owner, deadline, and one line of context. If the notes give no owner or deadline, mark it UNASSIGNED / NO DATE rather than guessing, and list those gaps for the user to fill.
- Open questions — anything discussed but unresolved.
Render three outputs in this order:
- A 3–5 sentence meeting summary suitable for forwarding.
- An action-item table: Owner | Task | Deadline | Context.
- One short follow-up email draft per owner covering only that owner's items.
Verify before presenting: every action item in the table must trace to a line in the notes, and every owner must appear in the attendee list. Ask the user to confirm the UNASSIGNED / NO DATE gaps — do not send or save drafts until they have reviewed them.

Constraints

Drafts are drafts: Claude only writes text; the user reviews and delivers everything from their own mail client.
Keep each follow-up email under ~120 words — one ask, one deadline, no filler.
If the notes contain fewer than three concrete items, say the skill is overkill and offer a two-line summary instead.

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Meeting Notes To Actions AI skill do?

Why use Meeting Notes To Actions on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Meeting Notes To Actions is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Meeting Notes To Actions in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/sgharlow/claude-code-recipes/tree/main/skills/meeting-notes-to-actions. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Meeting Notes To Actions?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Meeting Notes To Actions?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Meeting Notes To Actions with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Meeting Notes To Actions AI skill free?

It is published on GitHub by sgharlow. Check the repository for licensing terms. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
