Meeting Summarizer

What This Skill Does

The Meeting Summarizer by claudiodrusus is a sophisticated OpenClaw agent skill designed to distill lengthy, chaotic meeting transcripts into clean, structured, and actionable documentation. By leveraging advanced natural language processing via the Anthropic API, this skill parses raw text to extract critical information, saving teams countless hours of manual note-taking and follow-up tracking. It automatically organizes the chaotic dialogue of a meeting into four essential segments: a concise three-sentence summary, a list of firm decisions made, specific action items assigned to team members, and any looming follow-up deadlines or meeting dates. By converting unstructured speech-to-text data into a standardized Markdown format, it ensures that project stakeholders remain aligned and that accountability is maintained across all tasks.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your OpenClaw environment, ensure you have the necessary shell prerequisites installed (bash 4+ and curl). Open your terminal and run the following installation command:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/claudiodrusus/meeting-summarizer

Once installed, you must configure your environment by setting the ANTHROPIC_API_KEY variable. This key is required for the skill to communicate with the AI models responsible for processing your meeting data. Verify your installation by piping a sample transcript file into the script: ./summarize.sh < your_transcript.txt.

Use Cases

This skill is perfect for project managers who need to maintain clear documentation, developers syncing up during daily stand-ups, and sales professionals tracking prospect requirements. It is particularly useful for remote teams who rely heavily on recorded video calls, where transcript accuracy is high but focus is often scattered. Use it to bridge the gap between long brainstorming sessions and the immediate execution of tasks, ensuring no commitment is lost in the noise of a long conversation.

Example Prompts

1. "Summarize the following transcript from our Q3 marketing kickoff meeting and extract all pending action items for the design team: [paste transcript here]"
2. "Review the transcript provided and generate a concise three-sentence summary, then list out the primary stakeholders identified for each decision: [paste transcript here]"
3. "Take this raw voice-to-text file and format it into a Markdown document highlighting critical deadlines and follow-up dates mentioned by the product manager: [paste transcript here]"

Tips & Limitations

For optimal results, ensure your meeting transcript is clear and devoid of excessive background noise. The quality of the summary is highly dependent on the quality of the input text; consider using high-accuracy transcription tools before processing. Since this skill utilizes external APIs, ensure you are not sending sensitive or PII (Personally Identifiable Information) that violates your organization's security policies. Always review the generated output for accuracy, especially regarding assigned dates and ownership, before distributing the summary to a wider team.
