Today's Agent Skill: Automated Meeting Prep Briefs

What It Does

Most people walk into meetings having skimmed a calendar invite and nothing else. The five minutes before a call shouldn't be spent scrambling to remember who the attendees are, what was decided last time, or what you're supposed to have ready. This skill generates a focused one-page brief for any upcoming meeting — before you even open Zoom.

How It Works

The skill pulls the calendar event details, cross-references attendee names against your CRM or email history, surfaces the most recent prior meeting notes on the same topic, and distills open action items relevant to this specific call. It outputs a structured brief: context, attendees and their roles, agenda gaps to flag, and your three most important talking points.

How to Deploy It

Drop the SKILL.md content into your agent's skills directory and name it `meeting-prep-brief.md`. Trigger it manually before any meeting by passing the event title or calendar ID, or wire it to a calendar webhook so it fires automatically 30 minutes before each event.

## Description
Generates a structured pre-meeting brief by aggregating calendar event data, attendee context, prior meeting notes, and open action items into a one-page preparation document.

## Trigger
- User says: "prep me for my [meeting name]" or "brief me before [time] call"
- Automated: fires 30 minutes before any calendar event with 2+ attendees
- Manual: user passes a meeting title, calendar event ID, or paste of an invite

## Input
- Meeting title or calendar event details (required)
- Attendee list (optional — agent will attempt to infer from invite)
- Related project or account name (optional — improves context retrieval)
- Prior meeting notes file or folder path (optional)

## Steps
1. Parse the calendar event: extract title, time, attendees, agenda (if present), and any attached documents.
2. For each attendee, retrieve available context: job title, company, recent email threads, prior interactions.
3. Search prior meeting notes for the same project, account, or recurring series. Extract the most recent decisions and open action items.
4. Identify agenda gaps — items that are likely to come up given the context but are not explicitly listed.
5. Draft three prioritized
