Purpose
Turn meeting language into reviewable tasks without inventing ownership.
When to use it
- A meeting ends with scattered next steps.
- Owners or deadlines are implied but not explicit.
- You need follow-up drafts or task creation inputs.
Inputs
- Transcript segments
- Speaker verification
- Calendar context
Outputs
- Action items
- Owners
- Due dates
- Uncertainty flags
Steps
- Scan for commitments, requests, blockers, and decision-dependent next steps.
- Tie each item to speaker evidence when possible.
- Separate owner, helper, approver, and waiting-on person.
- Mark missing dates and ambiguous owners for human review.
Quality checks
- Every task has source evidence.
- Ambiguous owners are not silently assigned.
- Dates are normalized and source wording is preserved.
Failure modes
- A participant volunteers someone absent.
- A suggested action is mistaken for an agreed commitment.
Privacy notes
- Tasks may contain sensitive customer or personnel details.
- Review before syncing into shared task systems.
Example prompt
Extract action items with owner, due date, evidence segment, and uncertainty. Do not create tasks for ideas that were not accepted.
