What it does

Minutes MCP Recall is an agent skill from silverstein/minutes. Route meeting-recall questions to the right Minutes MCP tool.

Its SKILL.md is about 560 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/tool-map.md`). Compatibility notes: opencode

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering MCP servers. It works with Model Context Protocol. 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

  • Tasks that involve MCP servers

Example prompts

  • “/minutes-mcp-recall”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): opencode

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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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 MCP Recall loads about 563 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 20 tokens; SKILL.md has 261 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~20
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~563
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.6k

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 Path

Before running helper scripts or opening bundled references, set:

bash
export MINUTES_SKILLS_ROOT="$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)/.opencode/skills"
export MINUTES_SKILL_ROOT="$MINUTES_SKILLS_ROOT/minutes-mcp-recall"

/minutes-mcp-recall

Route a meeting-memory question to the smallest useful Minutes MCP tool. This skill is tool-name-oriented for MCP hosts such as OpenClaw, Hermes-agent, and other MCP clients. Use minutes-search instead when the host only has CLI or shell access.

Read the complete tool map only when the decision table does not cover the request.

Decision table

User is asking...Call
"What did we say about X?" or "Find that meeting about Y."search_meetings
"What is the full transcript of this specific meeting?"get_meeting after finding its id or date with list_meetings or search_meetings
About what is happening right now, mid-callread_live_transcript with a cursor or time window
"What do I still owe?" or "Who owes me?"track_commitments
"What is my history with this person?"get_person_profile or relationship_map
"Have I contradicted myself?" or "Which decisions are stale?"consistency_report
Broad research across many meetingsresearch_topic

Tool-name prefix by host

  • OpenClaw and generic MCP clients use bare tool names such as search_meetings.
  • Hermes-agent prefixes each tool with mcp_minutes_, so search_meetings becomes mcp_minutes_search_meetings.

Apply the same prefix rule to every tool in the decision table and tool map.

Anti-patterns

  • Do not call get_meeting speculatively to browse. It returns a full transcript. Use search_meetings or list_meetings first to find the right id or date and preserve context budget.
  • Do not call read_live_transcript without a cursor after one is available. Replaying the whole transcript wastes tokens and duplicates content already in context.
  • Do not use capture, dictation, processing, annotation, or speaker-mutation tools for a recall question.
