Procedure
- Get recording consent and save meeting.m4a beside agenda.md; list expected attendees and the decisions the meeting is meant to make.
- Run whisper meeting.m4a --model turbo --output_format json --output_dir transcript, then spot-check names, numbers, and unclear passages against the audio.
- Hand transcript/meeting.json and agenda.md to Claude Code; request decision-record.md with decisions, alternatives, owners, due dates, unresolved questions, and a timestamp for every entry.
- Send decision-record.md to attendees; require each named owner to confirm or correct their commitments and mark unresolved disagreements rather than merging them.
- Store the approved record in Obsidian and link it from the meeting note without deleting the reviewed transcript or corrections.
Acceptance artifact
An approved Markdown decision record with timestamped evidence, confirmed owners, due dates, alternatives, and unresolved questions
Do not use it blindly
Do not record without consent or treat transcription as authoritative; remove sensitive material before any cloud-model handoff and require human approval for commitments.
