This skill gives Claude a fixed 12-section layout for meeting minutes. It runs in four phases: intake, capture, drafting, and review and publish. Decisions and action items sit at the top, and every action item needs an owner and a due date.

It triggers for internal meetings of up to 60 minutes. It may ask up to three questions first if key details are missing. It bundles no scripts. SKILL.md includes two example prompts, one for a transcript and one for raw notes.

Good for

Team leads who need short, consistent minutes after syncs and reviews
Project managers who turn action items into Jira or GitHub tickets
Anyone with a transcript or messy notes to clean up

Watch out for

Phase 4 can publish and create tasks
SKILL.md says to send the draft to the organizer or reviewer, publish final minutes to the agreed channel and optionally create tasks in the tracker. It names no tool for any of this, so what happens depends on the tools your Claude session has. Confirm each send, post or ticket before it goes out. github.com
Meeting content may include personal data
The skill tells the agent not to publish raw personally identifiable information gathered during the discussion unless it is required and authorized. Check the draft before it is shared. github.com

Questions

What does the meeting-minutes skill do?

It makes Claude turn a transcript, recording notes or raw notes into meeting minutes in a fixed 12-section format. Decisions and action items come first, and every action item has an owner and a due date.

How do I install it?

Use the install box at the top of this page. It is a single SKILL.md file, so the skills CLI, a skills folder or a Claude upload all work.

What meetings is it for?

Internal meetings of 60 minutes or less, such as syncs, standups, design reviews, triage and planning. SKILL.md says it targets short internal meetings.

Will it ask me questions first?

Yes, up to three, if the title, date, organizer, agenda or reviewer is missing. If you say there is no agenda or transcript, it carries on and marks the source as ad-hoc notes.

Does it join my meeting or record audio?

SKILL.md defines no recording or meeting-join step. It works from a transcript, recording notes or raw notes that you provide.

Is it safe?

It bundles no scripts. Its publish phase mentions sending minutes to a shared channel and creating tasks in a tracker, so approve any posting. SKILL.md also says not to publish raw personal data from the discussion unless it is required and authorized.
