# AGENTS.md — Build guide for MeetGeek ## Project scope Import recurring meeting recordings, correct speakers, extract reviewed decisions and compare recurring topic mentions over selected sessions. Catalogue verdict: kinda. The core loop is buildable, but a dependable replacement becomes a real weekend or multi-day project. For MeetGeek, record supported meetings, create summaries, and track recurring themes. The hard boundary is auto-join, integrations, team analytics, and long-running capture reliability, plus capture reliability, integrations, and collaboration. Use the implementation prompt below to define the deliverable. Complete each phase's acceptance checks before extending the scope. ## Working agreement - Inspect the repository and its existing instructions before choosing paths, dependencies or commands. Keep one coherent stack and explain changes to the proposed architecture. - Plan a vertical slice that accepts a real input and produces the useful output described below. Persist only the state the prompt calls for; respect memory-only and upstream-managed workflows. Use fixtures only when they are clearly labelled. - After scaffolding, document the actual install, development, check and build commands in README and keep them synchronized with the package or project manifest. Do not report commands as successful unless they ran. - Work in small steps. At handoff, list implemented flows, checks actually performed, remaining blockers, and any credentials or provider setup the owner must supply. - Do not publish, spend money, contact customers, delete source data or run irreversible migrations without the project owner's authorization. ## Prerequisites - Runtime and tools: Python, FastAPI, SQLite, FFmpeg and a local faster-whisper worker with a React transcript editor. - Before starting: An installed speech model, adequate local disk space and a recording made with participant permission; any optional hosted model needs a separately disclosed API key. ## Stack and architecture - Python, FastAPI, SQLite, FFmpeg and a local faster-whisper worker with a React transcript editor - Data design: Store MeetingSeries, Session, TranscriptSegment, TopicAssignment and Summary; topic counts cite segments and exclude failed or partial transcriptions from complete-session comparisons. - Setup: An installed speech model, adequate local disk space and a recording made with participant permission; any optional hosted model needs a separately disclosed API key ## Security and data integrity - Keep original timing alongside corrected text. Speech recognition does not itself establish speaker identity; permit manual speaker labels. Show undecodable audio and uncertain passages without inventing words. - Upload-first workflow avoids unsupported auto-join claims. Participant consent, deletion and provider disclosure apply to both recordings and derived summaries. - Keep secrets outside client bundles and exported projects; document what leaves the device and make retention/deletion controls visible. ## Agent implementation rules - Project rule — domain: Store MeetingSeries, Session, TranscriptSegment, TopicAssignment and Summary; topic counts cite segments and exclude failed or partial transcriptions from complete-session comparisons. - Project rule — scope and recovery: Upload-first workflow avoids unsupported auto-join claims. Participant consent, deletion and provider disclosure apply to both recordings and derived summaries. - Project rule — acceptance: A recurring meeting has only half its audio available; show partial coverage and prevent its lower topic count from appearing as a meaningful decline. - Project rule — delivery: document real setup commands and permissions; do not claim a build, accuracy level, performance result or security certification that has not been demonstrated. ## Optional agent skills and references - Recommended skill: [modern-python](https://github.com/trailofbits/skills/blob/main/plugins/modern-python/skills/modern-python/SKILL.md) — structure the Python worker or explicitly optional read-only utility with pinned dependencies, typed boundaries and clear failure handling. Follow the maintainer's installation instructions and match its requirements to the chosen runtime. - Recommended skill: [web-design-guidelines](https://github.com/vercel-labs/agent-skills/blob/main/skills/web-design-guidelines/SKILL.md) — review keyboard access, focus, validation, error recovery and the readable work/review interface or HTML report. Follow the maintainer's installation instructions and match its requirements to the chosen runtime. Read the linked SKILL.md and its dependencies before adding a skill. Select only the skills matching this project's runtime and task; their documentation does not supply API access, credentials or approval to perform external actions. Pin the reviewed revision where the tool supports it. Follow the chosen agent's documented project-level installation mechanism. ## Distribution ideas These are optional planning notes. Obtain the owner's approval before publishing or contacting anyone. - Demonstrate this working slice using synthetic or explicitly authorized non-sensitive examples: Import recurring meeting recordings, correct speakers, extract reviewed decisions and compare recurring topic mentions over selected sessions. - Share a synthetic example export and the acceptance walkthrough; keep real customer, health, financial and source data private: A recurring meeting has only half its audio available; show partial coverage and prevent its lower topic count from appearing as a meaningful decline. - State the limits before asking someone to replace their existing tool: Upload-first workflow avoids unsupported auto-join claims. Participant consent, deletion and provider disclosure apply to both recordings and derived summaries. ## Engineering roadmap 1. Phase 1 — Pin the working slice and create its example input: Import recurring meeting recordings, correct speakers, extract reviewed decisions and compare recurring topic mentions over selected sessions. Confirm setup: An installed speech model, adequate local disk space and a recording made with participant permission; any optional hosted model needs a separately disclosed API key. 2. Phase 2 — Implement persistence and write-time invariants before decorating the UI: Store MeetingSeries, Session, TranscriptSegment, TopicAssignment and Summary; topic counts cite segments and exclude failed or partial transcriptions from complete-session comparisons. 3. Phase 3 — Connect the working view to real saved state. Keep original timing alongside corrected text. Speech recognition does not itself establish speaker identity; permit manual speaker labels. Show undecodable audio and uncertain passages without inventing words. 4. Phase 4 — Expose the app-specific limits and recovery path in context: Upload-first workflow avoids unsupported auto-join claims. Participant consent, deletion and provider disclosure apply to both recordings and derived summaries. 5. Phase 5 — Walk through this concrete acceptance case and preserve its exported evidence: A recurring meeting has only half its audio available; show partial coverage and prevent its lower topic count from appearing as a meaningful decline. Finish the README and backup/restore instructions; report unfinished capabilities explicitly. ## Paid-product capabilities outside this build - auto-join, integrations, team analytics, and long-running capture reliability - calendar auto-join - reliable speaker diarization - mobile capture - team search and sharing ## Implementation prompt Build the following focused alternative to MeetGeek. This is a deliberately limited personal or small-team substitute, not parity with the paid service. WORKING SLICE Import recurring meeting recordings, correct speakers, extract reviewed decisions and compare recurring topic mentions over selected sessions. SETUP AND ARCHITECTURE Use Python, FastAPI, SQLite, FFmpeg and a local faster-whisper worker with a React transcript editor. Prerequisites: An installed speech model, adequate local disk space and a recording made with participant permission; any optional hosted model needs a separately disclosed API key. Before integrating anything, record actual versions and permissions, plus model files or provider limits only where used, in the README; make unavailable dependencies visible rather than simulating success. DOMAIN MODEL AND INVARIANTS Store MeetingSeries, Session, TranscriptSegment, TopicAssignment and Summary; topic counts cite segments and exclude failed or partial transcriptions from complete-session comparisons. IMPLEMENTATION CONTRACT Keep original timing alongside corrected text. Speech recognition does not itself establish speaker identity; permit manual speaker labels. Show undecodable audio and uncertain passages without inventing words. Provide an input/setup view, the main work view, and a review/export view appropriate to this workflow. Preserve the last saved state if a job or save fails. Include empty, loading, permission-denied, partial and retryable-error states. Log identifiers and error categories without secret values or unnecessary private content. APP-SPECIFIC BOUNDARY AND RECOVERY Upload-first workflow avoids unsupported auto-join claims. Participant consent, deletion and provider disclosure apply to both recordings and derived summaries. ACCEPTANCE SCENARIO A recurring meeting has only half its audio available; show partial coverage and prevent its lower topic count from appearing as a meaningful decline. Also reopen the app after an interrupted operation, confirm the saved record/export remains inspectable, and document the recovery action. These are implementation acceptance requirements, not a claim that this guide has been tested. DELIVERY Deliver a runnable repository with migrations or project-format versioning, a non-sensitive example, environment/permission setup, the exact manual acceptance steps, and a backup/export-and-restore walkthrough. Implement the working slice before optional integrations; list any deferred paid-product capabilities honestly. Do not add capabilities outside the working slice just to resemble the original product. PROJECT RULES FOR AGENTS.md Keep the domain invariants above executable at the write boundary. Propose scope changes before adding providers or permissions. Never fabricate source evidence, publish results, identity matches or successful delivery. Preserve user originals and require an explicit confirmation for destructive changes or external publication. ## Completion evidence Demonstrate the prompt's acceptance scenarios against the scoped workflow. Include setup from a clean checkout and failure recovery. Check persistence across restart and export/restore only for the state the prompt says to store; for memory-only tools, confirm that temporary content is discarded as specified. Record actual results and remaining limitations. A detailed plan alone does not establish a working replacement.
