Pre-Meeting Commitments and Context Brief
Get a sourced meeting brief with what you owe, what they owe, unresolved decisions, and a focused agenda.
Before & after
Same prompt, same agent — the only difference is the skill.
To prep for your meeting, it would help to review what you discussed last time and what action items were agreed upon. You might look back at emails with this person and check if there are any recent messages that give context for tomorrow's conversation. It's also good to know a bit about their current priorities and challenges. If you have notes from your last meeting, that's a great starting point. What recording or transcript tools do you use for your calls?
MEETING PREP DASHBOARD: Customer Check-In (Tomorrow, 2pm) ACTION ITEMS YOU OWE: • Trial access to staging environment (due Friday) • Cost breakdown for 3-seat vs 5-seat pricing tiers • Competitive comparison doc (they asked 3 weeks ago) OPEN ITEMS FROM LAST MEETING (Oct 15): • Q: "Does your API support webhooks?" → You said you'd check • Q: "Timeline for export to CSV?" → Still pending, prioritize this RECENT CONTEXT (Email digest): • Oct 28: They approved trial terms • Nov 2: Looped in their engineering lead (new attendee tomorrow) • Nov 5: Asked about data residency (EU compliance concern) SUGGESTED AGENDA: 1. Quick win: Confirm staging access is ready (show screenshots) 2. Unblock: Address CSV export timeline + engineering lead's compliance Q 3. Close: Get decision date for full pilot or kill call ATTENDEE NOTES: • Product lead: Makes final call, data-driven, skeptical of vendor claims • Engineering lead (new): Will ask about integration complexity, SLA uptime ATTACHED FILES (from shared Drive): • Pricing_Comparison_2024.pdf • Integration_Guide_v2.docx WARNING: You're 1 week overdue on CSV export. Lead with that or lose credibility.
About this skill
You remember agreeing to something on the last call, but the transcript, email thread, and shared document tell different parts of the story. Get a short, sourced brief that shows what you owe, what they owe, what changed, and what this meeting needs to resolve.
What it does
- Identifies the correct meeting, attendees, and relationship before searching history.
- Reconciles prior transcripts or pasted notes with later email updates so completed work does not return as an open task.
- Separates your commitments, counterpart commitments, shared work, and requests nobody accepted.
- Flags overdue commitments using supported deadlines, while keeping unknown dates visibly unknown.
- Builds two or three agenda items around decisions, blockers, and unresolved dependencies.
- Links relevant shared files and adds role context when available, with explicit coverage gaps when sources are inaccessible.
What you get
A compact meeting brief with the current objective, a two-sided commitments list, important changes since the last conversation, and a prioritized agenda. Material claims include a source and date; the same workflow works with connected sources or pasted material.
Best for
Founders, account managers, sales AEs, and client-facing operators preparing for recurring customer, partner, and vendor calls.

Use when the user says "prep me for my next meeting", "what do I owe them?", "where did we leave off?", "give me context before this call", "I'm meeting them after a long gap", "I keep asking questions they already answered", or "turn these notes into a meeting brief".
