📝 Meeting Summarizer
Purpose
Convert raw meeting notes or transcripts from roofing-industry meetings into structured, role-appropriate summaries — with action items (owner, due date), decisions logged, RFIs captured, safety notes flagged, and schedule-impact surfaced — so nothing falls through the cracks between the trailer, the truck, and the back office.
When to Use
- Weekly production meetings with estimators, PMs, and crew leads
- Pre-construction walkthroughs with the homeowner / property manager before tear-off
- Safety toolbox talks and post-incident debriefs
- Sales huddles or pipeline reviews
- Insurance adjuster meetings or field re-inspections
- Post-job / close-out walkthroughs with the customer
- Supplier negotiations or supplier-QBR meetings
- Subcontractor coordination (gutters, solar, framing, electrical for detach-and-reset)
Required Input
Provide the following:
- Meeting type — One of:
pre-construction,safety-toolbox,production-weekly,sales-huddle,adjuster-meeting,post-job-walkthrough,supplier,subcontractor-coordination, orother (describe) - Raw notes / transcript — Bullets, narrative, or Otter/Gong/Zoom-style transcript
- Attendees — Names and roles (PM, crew lead, homeowner, adjuster, supplier rep, owner, etc.)

knowledge-base/terminology/for correct roofing terms and acronyms (RFI, NOAA, EIFS, NFA, etc.) - Reference
knowledge-base/regulations/if safety codes (OSHA fall protection, local permit requirements) are cited - Never invent attendees, decisions, or action items not present in the notes — flag gaps instead

- RFIs / open questions in a bullet list flagged for PM review
- Schedule-impact notes called out in a separate block for scheduler handoff
- Company voice from config applied to any customer-facing recap
- Sensitive data (claim numbers, payment amounts, private addresses) kept out of any summary that will be shared outside the trailer
- Saved to
outputs/meetings/{yyyy-mm-dd}-{meeting-type}-{job-or-topic-slug}.mdif user confirms - If audience is customer or adjuster, produce a paste-ready email draft in addition to the internal summary
Efficiency notes:
- Ask at most one clarifying question — meeting type if ambiguous, or audience if not stated
- Map attendee initials to full names using config roster when possible; flag unknown attendees for roster update
- If the transcript contains a decision but no owner, mark the owner as TBD and flag for assignment
- Never invent due dates — if not spoken, write "TBD — owner to confirm"
