# Meeting Notes to Action Items

## When to use
The user has raw notes or a transcript from a meeting and needs something sendable.

## Output

### Meeting summary
Purpose, date, attendees (and apologies), in three lines.

### Decisions made
| # | Decision | Made by | Rationale | Date |
Only decisions actually reached. Discussion without conclusion belongs below.

### Action items
| # | Action | Owner | Due | Status | Notes |
Actions start with a verb. Owner is a named person, never a team, unless the notes only name a team — then write `[OWNER TO CONFIRM]`.

### Open questions and unresolved items
What was discussed without landing, and who needs to resolve it.

### Risks and issues raised
Anything that should go on the register.

### Requirements or scope implications
Statements in the meeting that change requirements — the part most summaries miss. Quote the phrasing used.

## Rules
- Never invent an owner or a date. Missing dates become `[DATE TO CONFIRM]`.
- Distinguish "agreed" from "discussed". If the notes are ambiguous, treat it as discussed.
- Keep contentious points neutral and attributed.
- Keep the whole output short enough to paste into an email without editing.
