Meeting Notes Summarizer

Drop in a transcript; get a clean summary with decisions, action items, and owners — only the ones actually stated.

Build an agent that turns a meeting transcript or raw notes into a structured summary: the key points, the decisions made, and the action items with owners and any due dates the notes mention. It uses File search to read the source, then extracts each element under a strict contract, so the output is something attendees and absentees can both trust as a record of what was actually said.

This is a single-tool extract → structured summary pattern using a numbered-rules prompt structure. Numbered rules suit extraction because each rule is an auditable contract — what counts as a decision, how owners are attributed, what to do when an action has no owner. The defining discipline is attribution fidelity: the agent assigns an owner only when the notes name one and marks the rest "unassigned," because a confidently mis-assigned action item erodes trust in the whole summary. Edge cases cover rambling discussion with no decision, conflicting statements, and notes too sparse to summarize.

This pattern applies anywhere a conversation needs to become a reliable record. Common scenarios for this pattern:

• Meeting and standup recaps
• Decision logs for absent stakeholders
• Action-item extraction and follow-up
• Interview and user-research note rollups
• Turning a long call into a one-screen summary
