Extract facts from meetings and update your knowledge base — person profiles, chronological log, and index.

  • Works in 6 steps: Reads each meeting's YAML frontmatter… → Extracts structured facts with… → Updates person profiles in the knowledge… → …

  • SKILL.md covers Prerequisites, How to run, What it does and Safety guarantees, plus 2 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Minutes Ingest is an agent skill from silverstein/minutes. Extract facts from meetings and update your knowledge base — person profiles, chronological log, and index. Use when the user asks "ingest my meetings", "update my knowledge base", "extract facts from meetings", "sync meetings to wiki", "backfill knowledge", or wants their PARA/Obsidian/wiki profiles updated from conversation data.

Its SKILL.md is about 890 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts. Compatibility notes: opencode

It sits in Knowledge Management, covering Knowledge bases. It works with Obsidian. The repository describes itself as: Open-source, local-first Granola/Otter alternative that Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and any MCP client can query. Meetings, calls, and voice memos transcribed on-device into… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks ingest my meetings
  • Update my knowledge base
  • Extract facts from meetings
  • Sync meetings to wiki

Example prompts

  • “ingest my meetings”
  • “update my knowledge base”
  • “extract facts from meetings”
  • “/minutes-ingest”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): opencode

Workflow steps

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

  1. Reads each meeting's YAML frontmatter (decisions, action_items, entities, intents)
  2. Extracts structured facts with confidence levels and source provenance
  3. Updates person profiles in the knowledge base (adapter-dependent format)
  4. Appends to log.md with a timestamped entry for each ingested meeting
  5. Skips facts that already exist (deduplication) or are below the confidence threshold
  6. Excludes meetings designated sensitivity: restricted from automated knowledge-base ingestion

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d3285c7. 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 (its code samples are bash and toml).

    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.

  • Compatibility

    opencode

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Minutes Ingest loads about 894 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 87 tokens; SKILL.md has 335 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~87
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~894

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.

description
Extract facts from meetings and update your knowledge base — person profiles, chronological log, and index. Use when the user asks "ingest my meetings", "update my knowledge base", "extract facts from meetings", "sync meetings to wiki", "backfill knowledge", or wants their PARA/Obsidian/wiki profiles updated from conversation data.
compatibility
opencode

/minutes-ingest

Process meetings through the knowledge extraction pipeline to update person profiles, append to the knowledge log, and maintain the index.

Prerequisites

The [knowledge] section must be configured in ~/.config/minutes/config.toml:

toml
[knowledge]
enabled = true
path = "/path/to/knowledge/base"
adapter = "wiki"  # or "para", "obsidian"
engine = "none"   # or "agent" for LLM extraction
min_confidence = "strong"

If not configured, explain what's needed and offer to help set it up.

How to run

Single meeting
bash
minutes ingest ~/meetings/2026-04-03-strategy-call.md
All normal meetings (backfill)
bash
minutes ingest --all
bash
minutes ingest --all --dry-run

What it does

  1. Reads each meeting's YAML frontmatter (decisions, action_items, entities, intents)
  2. Extracts structured facts with confidence levels and source provenance
  3. Updates person profiles in the knowledge base (adapter-dependent format)
  4. Appends to log.md with a timestamped entry for each ingested meeting
  5. Skips facts that already exist (deduplication) or are below the confidence threshold
  6. Excludes meetings designated sensitivity: restricted from automated knowledge-base ingestion

Safety guarantees

  • engine = "none" (default): Only extracts from parsed YAML frontmatter. No LLM involved, zero hallucination risk.
  • Confidence thresholds: Facts below min_confidence are counted as "skipped" but never written.
  • Provenance: Every fact records which meeting it came from and when.
  • Deduplication: Facts whose text already appears in a person's profile are skipped.
  • Dry-run: Always suggest --dry-run first if the user hasn't used ingest before.

Interpreting the output

Ingesting 73 meeting(s) into knowledge base at /path/to/kb
  2026-04-03-strategy.md — 4 written, 1 skipped — Mat, Dan
  2026-04-05-standup.md — 2 written, 0 skipped — Alice
  SKIP 2026-03-18-test.md: no frontmatter

Done. 6 fact(s) written, 1 skipped, 1 error(s), 3 people updated.
  • written: facts that passed confidence threshold and didn't already exist
  • skipped: facts below confidence threshold (logged, not written)
  • SKIP: files that couldn't be parsed (no frontmatter, invalid YAML, etc.)

Gotchas

  • Meetings without summarization have no structured data — If a meeting was recorded before summarization was enabled, its frontmatter won't have action_items or decisions. The ingest will correctly extract 0 facts. This is expected, not an error.
  • engine = "agent" requires an AI CLI — If the user wants richer LLM-based extraction from transcript body text, they need claude, codex, gemini, opencode, or pi on PATH.
  • PARA adapter writes items.json — If the user's knowledge base uses the PARA format, facts go into areas/people/{slug}/items.json with atomic fact schema (id, status, supersededBy).
  • First run should be dry-run — Always suggest minutes ingest --all --dry-run before the first real run so the user can see what would be extracted.
