/call-summary

Turn a meeting into clean next steps. This skill should summarize what happened, surface what changed, and prepare the follow-up path without overproducing documents by default.

Usage

/call-summary <notes or transcript>

Process these call notes: $ARGUMENTS

If a file is referenced: @$1

What I Need From You

Option 1: Paste notes Use rough notes, bullets, or stream-of-consciousness text.

Option 2: Paste a transcript Use a Gemini recap email, transcript doc, or call transcript text.

Option 3: Describe the call Example: "Had a discovery call with Acme. Met with their CTO and VP Eng. They're evaluating us against Competitor X. Main concern is integration timeline."

If likely transcript artifacts already exist in Gmail or Drive, use those before asking for more input.

Retrieval Order

1. User-provided notes or transcript, if present
2. Google Calendar to identify the meeting shell
3. Gmail for recap emails, follow-up threads, and transcript emails
4. Google Drive for transcript docs, notes, decks, and proposal files
5. Tagged workspace files via search_document and bounded inspect_document reads
6. CRM only if connected or explicitly requested

Email Style Guidelines

When drafting customer-facing emails:

1. Be concise but informative.
2. Do not use markdown formatting.
3. Use short paragraphs and simple lists.
4. Keep the email easy to skim.

Good

Here's what we discussed:
- Quote for 20 seats at $480/seat/year
- W9 and supplier onboarding docs
- Point of contact for the contract

Bad

**What You Need from Us:**
- Quote for 20 seats at $480/seat/year

Execution Flow

Step 1: Resolve the meeting context

If the user pasted notes, use them. Then enrich with:

• Calendar metadata for timing and attendees
• Gmail recap or transcript emails
• Drive notes or transcript files
• tagged files already in the workspace

Transcript policy:

1. search Gmail first
2. search Drive second
3. use Calendar details to confirm the right meeting
4. do not assume Meet-native transcript APIs

Step 2: Extract the business signal

Always capture:

• decisions made
• customer priorities
• risks or objections raised
• competitor mentions
• action items with owners and timing
• what should happen next in the deal or account

Step 3: Draft the outputs

• create the internal recap
• draft the customer follow-up
• create a Gmail draft when available; otherwise provide the plain-text draft inline

Handoff Rules

Stay recap-first by default.

If the meeting clearly creates a larger downstream task:

• hand off to proposal-writing for proposals, SOWs, scopes, or commercials
• hand off to pptx for PowerPoint, Google Slides, native recap decks, exec summary decks, or editable customer-facing presentation material
• hand off to frontend-slides only for explicit browser-native HTML/web presentations

The handoff brief should include:

• the deal or account context
• meeting outcomes and decisions
• priorities, objections, and requested deliverable
• any missing commercial or technical details

Example handoff: proposal follow-up

If the meeting ends with "please send a proposal," first produce the recap and clear next-step summary here, then pass the commercial and scope context into proposal-writing.

Example handoff: executive recap deck

If the user asks for a call summary plus an executive PowerPoint readout deck, first create the recap and action table here, then hand off the story, audience, and key outcomes to pptx.

Tips

1. Rough notes are enough if they contain the signal.
2. Attendee names make summaries and action items more accurate.
3. If something mattered a lot, call it out explicitly.
4. Deal stage helps tune the follow-up tone and next-step recommendation.

Notes

• Do not ask for pasted notes if Gmail or Drive already contains likely transcript artifacts.
• Do not claim CRM updates happened unless the CRM path actually exists and was used.
