Meeting Sync (Circleback)

Meeting transcripts from Circleback auto-imported as markdown with attendee detection, auto-tagging, and entity propagation. The richest signal source - 5-10 entities per meeting.

Why Meetings Are High-Value

A 30-minute meeting mentions 5-10 people, 3-5 companies, and generates 2-3 action items. Each should propagate to relevant wiki pages. Without this integration, meetings are black holes. With it, every meeting compounds the wiki. Source: scripts/sync-meetings.ts; recipes/meeting-sync.md

Usage

npx tsx scripts/sync-meetings.ts                   # sync last 7 days
npx tsx scripts/sync-meetings.ts --days 30         # last 30 days
npx tsx scripts/sync-meetings.ts --start 2026-01-01 --end 2026-04-12

Requires CIRCLEBACK_TOKEN environment variable. Get it from https://app.circleback.ai → Settings → API.

Output

Meeting pages at raw/meetings/{YYYY-MM-DD}-{slug}.md with:

• Frontmatter: title, date, duration, source_id, attendees, tags
• Summary (from Circleback AI)
• Attendees list (filtered - no conference rooms or mailing lists)
• Action items with assignees
• Full transcript with speaker labels

Auto-Tagging

Meeting titles → tags: "1:1" → 1on1, "standup"/"sync" → sync, "board" → board, "interview" → interview, "retro" → retro, "demo" → demo.

Circleback API

Uses JSONRPC 2.0 over SSE with double-JSON encoding. The collector handles the parsing automatically. This is the most common failure point if implementing manually.

Cost

$0-17/mo. Circleback free tier: 10 meetings/mo. Pro ($17/mo): unlimited.
