## What I Need From You
**Option 1: Paste your notes**
Just paste whatever you have — bullet points, rough notes, stream of consciousness. I'll structure it.
**Option 2: Paste a transcript**
If you have a full transcript from your video conferencing tool (e.g. Zoom, Teams) or conversation intelligence tool (e.g. Gong, Fireflies), paste it. I'll extract the key moments.
**Option 3: Describe the call**
Tell me what happened: "Had a discovery call with Acme Corp. Met with their VP Eng and CTO. They're evaluating us vs Competitor X. Main concern is integration timeline."

## Email Style Guidelines
When drafting customer-facing emails:
1. **Be concise but informative** — Get to the point quickly. Customers are busy.
2. **No markdown formatting** — Don't use asterisks, bold, or other markdown syntax. Write in plain text that looks natural in any email client.
3. **Use simple structure** — Short paragraphs, line breaks between sections. No headers or bullet formatting unless the customer's email client will render it.
4. **Keep it scannable** — If listing items, use plain dashes or numbers, not fancy formatting.
**Good:**
```
Here's what we discussed:
- Quote for 20 seats at $480/seat/year
- W9 and supplier onboarding docs
- Point of contact for the contract
```
**Bad:**
```
**What You Need from Us:**
- Quote for 20 seats at $480/seat/year

## If Connectors Available
**Transcripts connected (Fireflies via cli-copilot):**
- If the user gives a transcript or meeting ID, run:
`copilot fireflies get <transcript_id>`
and parse the returned `sentences` array for speaker text and the `summary` field for
action items and overview. If `copilot` is unavailable or the command errors,
fall back to the standalone branch above — ask the user to paste the transcript directly.
- To find a transcript by meeting name or date, first run:
`copilot fireflies list --limit 25`
and search the returned titles for a match, then fetch the ID.
**CRM connected (NocoDB via cli-copilot):**
- Run `copilot crm clients list --search "<company>"` to look up the account/client record.
- Offer to log the call as an activity row and update the opportunity stage.
- If `copilot crm` is unavailable, prompt the user to update their CRM manually.
**Email connected:**
- Offer to create a draft email from the follow-up template.
- Or send directly if the user approves.

## Tips
1. **More detail = better output** — Even rough notes help. "They seemed concerned about X" is useful context.
2. **Name the attendees** — Helps me structure the summary and assign action items.
3. **Flag what matters** — If something was important, tell me: "The big thing was..."
4. **Tell me the deal stage** — Helps me tailor the follow-up tone and next steps.
