BlackBelt Meeting Summary

What This Does

Processes transcripts from BlackBelt coaching calls (Game Plan, Velocity, Red) and generates summaries ready to paste into Basecamp. Follows the capture-triage pattern: scan → preview → confirm → process → output.

Watch Folder

/Users/eddale/Documents/COPYobsidian/MAGI/Zettelkasten/Transcripts/

Processed transcripts move to Transcripts/Processed/.

Instructions

Step 1: Scan for Unprocessed Transcripts

1. Read all .md and .txt files in the Transcripts folder (not Processed subfolder)
2. For each file, try to detect:
   • Client name (from filename or speaker names in transcript)
   • Session type (Game Plan, Velocity, Red) from filename or content
3. Skip files that are empty or don't look like transcripts

Step 2: Dry-Run Preview

Use AskUserQuestion to show what was found:

Found transcripts to process:

| # | File | Detected Client | Type |
|---|------|-----------------|------|
| 1 | GamePlan-Bren-Jan5.md | Bren | Game Plan |
| 2 | Velocity-Jan5.md | ? | Velocity |

Please confirm or correct the client name and session type for each.

Options for each:

• Confirm as detected
• Enter correct client name
• Select session type (Game Plan / Velocity / Red)
• Skip this transcript

Step 3: Process Each Confirmed Transcript

For each approved transcript:

1. Read the full transcript

2. Generate summary using the template below (250-400 words)

3. Run through ai-slop-detector skill to clean up AI patterns

4. Save to Zettelkasten:

   • Filename: Meeting Summary - [Client] - [Type] - YYYY-MM-DD.md
   • Location: /Users/eddale/Documents/COPYobsidian/MAGI/Zettelkasten/

5. Add to daily note Captures section:

   - [[Meeting Summary - [Client] - [Type] - YYYY-MM-DD]] - [Type] with [Client]
   

6. Move transcript to Transcripts/Processed/

Step 4: Display Copyable Output

For each processed meeting, display the Basecamp-ready summary in a code block:

✓ Processed: [Client] — [Type] Summary

Copy for Basecamp:

Then show the summary in a fenced code block for easy copy/paste.
