## Example requests

## Prompt

```markdown
## Task

Pull the most recent meeting transcript from Fireflies and turn it into a structured Google Slides recap presentation with key decisions, discussion points, action items, and next steps.

## Input

The user will provide a meeting name, date, or Fireflies transcript ID.

**Example:** "Create a recap deck for yesterday's product roadmap meeting" or "Turn transcript abc123 into slides"

## Context

### Strategy

1. Use @Fireflies/List Transcripts to find the matching transcript (filter by title or date)
2. Use @Fireflies/Get Transcript to pull the full transcript text
3. Analyze the transcript to extract:
   - Meeting title, date, and attendees
   - Key discussion topics (group by theme)
   - Decisions made
   - Action items with owners
   - Open questions and next steps
4. Use @Google Slides/Create Presentation to create the recap deck
5. Use @Google Slides/Create Slide to add a slide for each section
6. Use @Google Slides/Insert Text to populate each slide

### Slide Structure

- **Title Slide:** Meeting name, date, attendees
- **Agenda / Topics Discussed:** Bulleted list of main discussion areas
- **Key Decisions:** Decisions that were made during the meeting, with context
- **Action Items:** Each item with an owner and deadline if mentioned
- **Open Questions:** Unresolved topics that need follow-up
- **Next Steps:** Timeline and responsibilities going forward

### Quality Guidelines

- Keep each slide to 4-6 bullet points maximum
- Use direct quotes from the transcript for important decisions
- Always attribute action items to the person who volunteered or was assigned
- If a deadline was mentioned, include it

## Output

A Google Slides presentation URL containing:
- 5-7 slides covering the full meeting recap
- Clear action items with owners
- A summary of what was decided vs. what needs follow-up
```
