What it does

Meeting Synthesis is an agent skill from NateBJones-Projects/OB1. Workflow for turning meeting transcripts or notes into decisions, action items, unresolved questions, risks, and follow-up artifacts. Use for prompts like "summarize this meeting", "extract action items", "what did we decide", or "draft the follow-up". Best when you have notes or a transcript, attendee context, and the reason the meeting happened. Optional Open Brain search and capture can pull surrounding context and store the final synthesis or decisions.

Its SKILL.md is about 870 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `README.md` and `metadata.json`).

The repository describes itself as: Open Brain — The infrastructure layer for your thinking. One database, one AI gateway, one chat channel — any AI plugs in. No middleware, no SaaS.

When your agent uses it

  • Prompts like summarize this meeting
  • Extract action items
  • What did we decide
  • Draft the follow-up

Example prompts

  • “summarize this meeting”
  • “extract action items”
  • “what did we decide”
  • “/meeting-synthesis”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Frame the meeting.
  2. Extract the real signal.
  3. Attribute where possible.
  4. Preserve uncertainty honestly.
  5. Produce the right artifact.
  6. Optionally use Open Brain.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 238df6c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Meeting Synthesis loads about 870 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 120 tokens; SKILL.md has 404 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~120
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~870

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 404 words (~870 tokens).

“Meeting notes are usually either too raw to reuse or too polished to trust. This skill turns them into a durable record of what happened, what was decided, what is still unresolved, and what needs to happen next.”
