Minutes Record

What it does

When your agent uses it

• Start recording
• Capture this meeting
• Im in a meeting
• Take notes on this call

Example prompts

• “record”
• “start recording”
• “capture this meeting”
• “/minutes-record”

Requirements

• Compatibility (from SKILL.md): opencode

Workflow steps

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

1. 1Stops audio capture
2. 2Transcribes the audio locally via whisper.cpp (no cloud, no data leaves the machine)
3. 3Saves the transcript as a markdown file in ~/meetings/
4. 4Prints the output path and word count as JSON

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 Record loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.9k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 87 tokens; SKILL.md has 513 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

~1.1k

With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them

~1.9k

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

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

Start or stop recording a meeting, call, or voice memo. Use this whenever the user says "record", "start recording", "capture this meeting", "stop recording", "I'm in a meeting", "take notes on this call", or wants to transcribe live audio. Also use when they ask about recording status or want to know if something is being recorded.
