Meeting Prep

One-page briefing before a call or meeting.

Usage

`/meeting-prep [person or meeting name]`

• "Prep me for my call with Sarah"

• "What should I know before talking to Jim?"

What to Gather

Primary: Deep Context (one call)

Call the `memory_deep_context` MCP tool with the person's name. This returns everything in one round trip: entity info, all memories, connected entities, temporal items (commitments, observations), and episode history. Use this data for all sections below.

If deep_context is unavailable, fall back to sequential calls: `memory_about` for the entity, then `memory_recall` for broader context.

1. Person Context

From `memory_deep_context` result (or `people/[person].md` as fallback):

• Role and organization
• Relationship history
• Last contact and topics
• Communication style
• What matters to them

2. Open Items

From the temporal section of deep_context results:

• Commitments to them
• Commitments from them
• Waiting items

3. Recent Context

From the episodes section of deep_context results, plus linked documents.

Also check:

• Last meeting notes (if any)
• Recent email threads (if available)
• Any project/client context

4. Strategic Context

• What's the purpose of this meeting?
• What outcome would be good?
• Any concerns to be aware of?

If no file exists for this person: "I don't have context on [Person] yet. Would you like to: 1. Tell me about them now (quick capture) 2. Create a full person file 3. Proceed with what you know"

Group Meetings

For meetings with multiple people:

• Brief context on key attendees
