Meeting Brief

Automated daily meeting preparation system that researches meeting attendees and sends you personalized briefs.

What It Does

Every morning (configurable time):

  1. Checks your calendar for today's meetings (via gcalcli)
  2. Extracts attendees from each meeting
  3. Filters out your team members (configurable)
  4. Deep researches each external person:
    • LinkedIn profile (web search)
    • Company information
    • GitHub profile (if engineer)
    • Past interactions/notes (memory search)
    • Recent news/activity
  5. Generates AI-powered brief per person
  6. Sends 1 email per person to your inbox

Setup

1. Configure Team Members

Edit config.json to list your team members (these will be skipped):

{
  "team_members": [
    "[email protected]",
    "[email protected]",
    "[email protected]"
  ],
  "team_domains": [
    "@yourcompany.com"
  ],
  "schedule": "0 7 * * *",
  "timezone": "America/Los_Angeles",
  "your_email": "[email protected]",
  "brief_from": "Meeting Brief <[email protected]>",
  "slack_webhook": "https://hooks.slack.com/services/YOUR/WEBHOOK/URL",
  "send_email": true,
  "send_slack": true,
  "include_calendar_details": true,
  "research_depth": "standard"
}

Config options:

  • team_members: Emails to skip (exact match)
  • team_domains: Domain patterns to skip (e.g., skip all @yourcompany.com)
  • schedule: Cron expression for daily run (default: 7am)
  • timezone: Timezone for schedule
  • your_email: Where to send briefs
  • brief_from: From address for briefs
  • slack_webhook: Slack incoming webhook URL (optional)
  • send_email: Whether to send email briefs (default: true)
  • send_slack: Whether to send Slack notifications (default: false)
  • include_calendar_details: Include meeting time/location in brief
  • research_depth: quick (web only), standard (web + GitHub), deep (web + GitHub + past notes)

2. Set Up Daily Cron Job

Use OpenClaw's cron tool to schedule the daily run:

// Create cron job for daily meeting briefs
{
  name: "Meeting Brief - Daily",
  schedule: {
    kind: "cron",
    expr: "0 7 * * *",  // 7 AM daily (UTC)
    tz: "America/Los_Angeles"
  },
  payload: {
    kind: "agentTurn",
    message: "Run the meeting-brief skill for today's meetings",
    timeoutSeconds: 600
  },
  sessionTarget: "isolated"
}

Alternatively, run manually:

cd skills/meeting-brief
./scripts/run_daily.sh

How It Works

Main Workflow (scripts/run_daily.sh)

  1. Fetch today's meetings (scripts/check_calendar.sh)

    • Uses gcalcli to get today's agenda
    • Parses meeting times, titles, attendees
    • Outputs JSON with meeting details
  2. Filter external attendees (built into run_daily.sh)

    • Loads config.json
    • Filters out team members and team domains
    • Creates list of people to research
  3. Research each person (scripts/research_person.js)

    • Web search: LinkedIn profile, company info
    • GitHub search: Profile and repos (if applicable)
    • Memory search: Past interactions/notes
    • News search: Recent activity
    • Outputs structured research JSON
  4. Generate brief (scripts/generate_brief.js)

    • Uses OpenClaw session to generate AI brief
    • Inputs: research data + meeting context
    • Outputs: Two formats:
      • Email: Concise bullet-point brief
      • Slack: Rich paragraph-style story with deeper context and narrative
  5. Send brief

    • Email: Uses Gmail skill (send_email: true)
    • Slack: Uses webhook (send_slack: true, scripts/send_slack.sh)
    • Subject: "Meeting Brief: [Person Name] - [Meeting Title]"
    • Body: AI-generated brief with research
  6. Save to personal CRM (supernotes/people/)

    • Each researched person saved as markdown file
    • Includes: research data, meeting context, date
    • Builds personal relationship database over time
  7. Track sent briefs (logs to data/sent/YYYY-MM-DD.json)

    • Prevents duplicates
    • Enables analytics

Research Process

For each external attendee, the system researches:

Web Search (Always)

  • LinkedIn profile (name + company)
  • Company information
  • Recent news mentions
  • Professional background

GitHub (If research_depth is standard or deep)

  • GitHub profile lookup (by name/email)
  • Recent repos and contributions
  • Technical focus areas

Memory/Past Notes (If research_depth is deep)

  • Search MEMORY.md and daily notes
  • Past meeting notes
  • Previous interactions
  • Context from past conversations

Output Format

Research is structured as JSON:

{
  "person": {
    "name": "Jane Doe",
    "email": "[email protected]",
    "company": "Example Corp",
    "title": "VP Engineering"
  },
  "linkedin": {
    "url": "...",
    "bio": "...",
    "experience": [...]
  },
  "github": {
    "username": "janedoe",
    "profile_url": "...",
    "recent_repos": [...]
  },
  "company": {
    "name": "Example Corp",
    "industry": "...",
    "recent_news": [...]
  },
  "past_interactions": [
    "Met at conference in 2024",
    "Discussed partnership opportunity"
  ]
}

Brief Generation

The AI-generated brief comes in two formats:

Email Format (Concise Bullets)

  1. Quick Overview

    • Who they are (name, title, company)
    • Why you're meeting (meeting title/description)
  2. Background

    • Professional background (LinkedIn)
    • Company context
    • Technical expertise (GitHub, if applicable)
  3. Conversation Starters

    • Based on recent activity
    • Shared interests/connections
    • Relevant topics
  4. Action Items / Notes

    • Past interactions (if any)
    • Things to remember
    • Follow-up items

Slack Format (Rich Story)

Deeper, narrative-driven brief with:

  • Paragraph-style storytelling about the person
  • Context about their journey and recent work
  • Compelling hooks and conversation angles
  • More background color and detail
  • Stronger narrative flow than bullet points

Manual Usage

Run for a specific person:

# Research a person
node scripts/research_person.js "Jane Doe" "[email protected]" "Example Corp"

# Generate brief
node scripts/generate_brief.js research_output.json meeting_context.json

# Send brief
./scripts/send_brief.sh brief.html "Jane Doe"

Run for today's meetings:

./scripts/run_daily.sh

Tips

  1. Test with dry-run first: Set DRY_RUN=true in run_daily.sh to preview without sending
  2. Adjust research depth: Start with quick, upgrade to standard or deep as needed
  3. Refine team filter: Add domains/emails to skip internal meetings
  4. Review briefs: Check data/sent/ logs to see what's being sent
  5. Iterate on prompts: Edit generate_brief.js to customize AI prompt

Troubleshooting

No briefs sent:

  • Check gcalcli authentication (gcalcli agenda today tomorrow)
  • Verify calendar has events with external attendees
  • Check logs in logs/run.log

Briefs missing information:

  • Increase research_depth in config.json
  • Check web_search and GitHub CLI are working
  • Review research data in data/research/

Duplicate briefs:

  • Check data/sent/ for already-sent tracking
  • Verify cron job isn't running multiple times

Integration with OpenClaw

This skill uses:

  • gcalcli-calendar: For fetching today's meetings
  • web_search: For LinkedIn and company research
  • GitHub CLI (gh): For GitHub profile lookup
  • memory_search: For past interactions (deep mode)
  • gmail skill: For sending brief emails
  • sessions_spawn: For AI brief generation
  • cron: For daily scheduling

Privacy & Security

  • Research data is cached locally in data/research/
  • No external APIs (uses web_search, GitHub CLI, memory_search)
  • Briefs sent only to configured email
  • Team member filtering prevents leaking internal info
  • All data stored in skill directory (no cloud storage)
