# Meeting Insights Analyzer

> Originally contributed by [maximcoding](https://github.com/maximcoding) — enhanced and integrated by the claude-skills team.

Transform meeting transcripts into concrete, evidence-backed feedback on communication patterns, leadership behaviors, and interpersonal dynamics.

## Core Workflow

### 1. Ingest & Inventory

Scan the target directory for transcript files (`.txt`, `.md`, `.vtt`, `.srt`, `.docx`, `.json`).

For each file:
- Extract meeting date from filename or content (expect `YYYY-MM-DD` prefix or embedded timestamps)
- Identify speaker labels — look for patterns like `Speaker 1:`, `[John]:`, `John Smith  00:14:32`, VTT/SRT cue formatting
- Detect the user's identity: ask if ambiguous, otherwise infer from the most frequent speaker or filename hints
- Log: filename, date, duration (from timestamps), participant count, word count

Print a brief inventory table so the user confirms scope before heavy analysis begins.

### 2. Normalize Transcripts

Different tools produce wildly different formats. Normalize everything into a common internal structure before analysis:

```
{ speaker: string, timestamp_sec: number | null, text: string }[]
```

Handling per format:
- **VTT/SRT**: Parse cue timestamps + text. Speaker labels may be inline (`<v Speaker>`) or prefixed.
- **Plain text**: Look for `Name:` or `[Name]` prefixes per line. If no speaker labels exist, warn the user that per-speaker analysis is limited.
- **Markdown**: Strip formatting, then treat as plain text.
- **DOCX**: Extract text content, then treat as plain text.
- **JSON**: Expect an array of objects with `speaker`/`text` fields (common Otter/Fireflies export).

If timestamps are missing, degrade gracefully — skip timing-dependent metrics (speaking pace, pause analysis) but still run text-based analysis.

### 3. Analyze

Run all applicable analysis modules below. Each module is independent — skip any that don't apply (e.g., skip speaking ratios if there are no speaker labels).

---

#### Module: Speaking Dynamics

Calculate per-speaker:
- **Word count & percentage** of total meeting words
- **Turn count** — how many times each person spoke
- **Average turn length** — words per uninterrupted speaking turn
- **Longest monologue** — flag turns exceeding 60 seconds or 200 words
- **Interruption detection** — a turn that starts within 2 seconds of the previous speaker's last timestamp, or mid-sentence breaks

Produce a per-meeting summary and a cross-meeting average if multiple transcripts exist.

Red flags to surface:
- User speaks > 60% in a 1:many meeting (dominating)
- User speaks < 15% in a meeting they're facilitating (disengaged or over-delegating)
- One participant never speaks (excluded voice)
- Interruption ratio > 2:1 (user interrupts others twice as often as they're interrupted)

---

#### Module: Conflict & Directness

Scan the user's speech for hedging and avoidance markers:

**Hedging language** (score per-instance, aggregate per meeting):
- Qualifiers: "maybe", "kind of", "sort of", "I guess", "potentially", "arguably"
- Permission-seeking: "if that's okay", "would it be alright if", "I don't know if this is right but"
- Deflection: "whatever you think", "up to you", "I'm flexible"
- Softeners before disagreement: "I don't want to push back but", "this might be a dumb question"

**Conflict avoidance patterns** (requires more context, flag with confidence level):
- Topic changes after tension (speaker A raises problem → user pivots to logistics)
- Agreement-without-commitment: "yeah totally" followed by no action or follow-up
- Reframing others' concerns as smaller than stated: "it's probably not that big a deal"
- Absent feedback in 1:1s where performance topics would be expected

For each flagged instance, extract:
- The full quote (with surrounding context — 2 turns before and after)
- A severity tag: `low` (single hedge word), `medium` (pattern of hedging in one exchange), `high` (clearly avoided a necessary conversation)
- A rewrite suggestion: what a more direct version would sound like

---

#### Module: Filler Words & Verbal Habits

Count occurrences of: "um", "uh", "like" (non-comparative), "you know", "actually", "basically", "literally", "right?" (tag question), "so yeah", "I mean"

Report:
- Total count per meeting
- Rate per 100 words spoken (normalizes across meeting lengths)
- Breakdown by filler type
- Contextual spikes — do fillers increase in specific situations? (e.g., when responding to a senior stakeholder, when giving negative feedback, when asked a question cold)

Only flag this as an issue if the rate exceeds ~3 per 100 words. Below that, it's normal speech.

---

#### Module: Question Quality & Listening

Classify the user's questions:
- **Closed** (yes/no): "Did you finish the report?"
- **Leading** (answer embedded): "Don't you think we should ship sooner?"
- **Open genuine**: "What's blocking you on this?"
- **Clarifying** (references prior speaker): "When you said X, did you mean Y?"
- **Building** (extends another's idea): "That's interesting — what if we also Z?"

Good listening indicators:
- Clarifying and building questions (shows active processing)
- Paraphrasing: "So what I'm hearing is..."
- Referencing a point someone made earlier in the meeting
- Asking quieter participants for input

Poor listening indicators:
- Asking a question that was already answered
- Restating own point without acknowledging the response
- Responding to a question with an unrelated topic

Report the ratio of open/clarifying/building vs. closed/leading questions.

---

#### Module: Facilitation & Decision-Making

Only apply when the user is the meeting organizer or facilitator.

Evaluate:
- **Agenda adherence**: Did the meeting follow a structure or drift?
- **Time management**: How long did each topic take vs. expected?
- **Inclusion**: Did the facilitator actively draw in quiet participants?
- **Decision clarity**: Were decisions explicitly stated? ("So we're going with option B — Sarah owns the follow-up by Friday.")
- **Action items**: Were they assigned with owners and deadlines, or left vague?
- **Parking lot discipline**: Were off-topic items acknowledged and deferred, or did they derail?

---

#### Module: Sentiment & Energy

Track the emotional arc of the user's language across the meeting:
- **Positive markers**: enthusiastic agreement, encouragement, humor, praise
- **Negative markers**: frustration, dismissiveness, sarcasm, curt responses
- **Neutral/flat**: low-energy responses, monosyllabic answers

Flag energy drops — moments where the user's engagement visibly decreases (shorter turns, less substantive responses). These often correlate with discomfort, boredom, or avoidance.

---

### 4. Output the Report

Structure the final output as a single cohesive report. Use this skeleton — omit any section where data was insufficient:

```markdown
# Meeting Insights Report

**Period**: [earliest date] – [latest date]
**Meetings analyzed**: [count]
**Total transcript words**: [count]
**Your speaking share (avg)**: [X%]

---

## Top 3 Findings

[Rank by impact. Each finding gets 2-3 sentences + one concrete example with a direct quote and timestamp.]

## Detailed Analysis

### Speaking Dynamics
[Stats table + narrative interpretation + flagged red flags]

### Directness & Conflict Patterns
[Flagged instances grouped by pattern type, with quotes and rewrites]

### Verbal Habits
[Filler word stats, contextual spikes, only if rate > 3/100 words]

### Listening & Questions
[Question type breakdown, listening indicators, specific examples]

### Facilitation
[Only if applicable — agenda, decisions, action items]

### Energy & Sentiment
[Arc summary, flagged drops]

## Strengths
[3 specific things the user does well, with evidence]

## Growth Opportunities
[3 ranked by impact, each with: what to change, why it matters, a concrete "try this next time" action]

## Comparison to Previous Period
[Only if prior analysis exists — delta on key metrics]
```

### 5. Follow-Up Options

After delivering the report, offer:
- Deep dive into any specific meeting or pattern
- A 1-page "communication cheat sheet" with the user's top 3 habits to change
- Tracking setup — save current metrics as a baseline for future comparison
- Export as markdown or structured JSON for use in performance reviews

---

## Edge Cases

- **No speaker labels**: Warn the user upfront. Run text-level analysis (filler words, question types on the full transcript) but skip per-speaker metrics. Suggest re-exporting with speaker diarization enabled.
- **Very short meetings** (< 5 minutes or < 500 words): Analyze but caveat that patterns from short meetings may not be representative.
- **Non-English transcripts**: The filler word and hedging dictionaries are English-centric. For other languages, note the limitation and focus on structural analysis (speaking ratios, turn-taking, question counts).
- **Single meeting vs. corpus**: If only one transcript, skip trend/comparison language. Focus findings on that meeting alone.
- **User not identified**: If you can't determine which speaker is the user after scanning, ask before proceeding. Don't guess.

## Transcript Source Tips

Include this section in output only if the user seems unsure about how to get transcripts:

- **Zoom**: Settings → Recording → enable "Audio transcript". Download `.vtt` from cloud recordings.
- **Google Meet**: Auto-transcription saves to Google Docs in the calendar event's Drive folder.
- **Granola**: Exports to markdown. Best speaker label quality of consumer tools.
- **Otter.ai**: Export as `.txt` or `.json` from the web dashboard.
- **Fireflies.ai**: Export as `.docx` or `.json` — both work.
- **Microsoft Teams**: Transcripts appear in the meeting chat. Download as `.vtt`.

Recommend `YYYY-MM-DD - Meeting Name.ext` naming convention for easy chronological analysis.

## Anti-Patterns

| Anti-Pattern | Why It Fails | Better Approach |
|---|---|---|
| Analyzing without speaker labels | Per-person metrics impossible — results are generic word clouds | Ask user to re-export with speaker identification enabled |
| Running all modules on a 5-minute standup | Overkill — filler word and conflict analysis need 20+ min meetings | Auto-detect meeting length and skip irrelevant modules |
| Presenting raw metrics without context | "You said 'um' 47 times" is demoralizing without benchmarks | Always compare to norms and show trajectory over time |
| Analyzing a single meeting in isolation | One meeting is a snapshot, not a pattern — conclusions are unreliable | Require 3+ meetings minimum for trend-based coaching |
| Treating speaking time equality as the goal | A facilitator SHOULD talk less; a presenter SHOULD talk more | Weight speaking ratios by meeting type and role |
| Flagging every hedge word as negative | "I think" and "maybe" are appropriate in brainstorming | Distinguish between decision meetings (hedges are bad) and ideation (hedges are fine) |
