Preferred Export Order

When exporting meetings, use this priority:

1. First: Try --note-title "Eric Binnion" (partial match finds notes prefixed with this)
2. Fallback: Use --transcript if no matching note exists

# Preferred - matches notes like "Eric Binnion - Summary", etc.
quill export --latest --notes --note-title "Eric Binnion"

# Fallback if no Eric Binnion note exists
quill export --latest --transcript

Common Workflows

Get latest meeting notes to clipboard:

quill export --latest --notes --note-title "Eric Binnion" | pbcopy

Export transcript to file:

quill export --latest --transcript > transcript.md

Find and export specific meeting:

quill list --search "planning"  # Find meeting ID
quill export abc123 --notes --note-title "Eric Binnion"

Select different note template:

quill export --latest --notes --note-title "Product"
