Fast non-interactive briefing before any meeting — auto-detects your next calendar event, pulls relationship history, surfaces open commitments, and produces a one-page brief in under 30 seconds. Use this whenever the user says "brief me", "give me a quick brief", "what's coming up", "background on my next call", "who am I meeting next", "brief me on Sarah", "I have a call in 10 min", "quick rundown", or right before walking into a meeting. Different from /minutes-prep — brief is the fast…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

## Skill Path

Before running helper scripts or opening bundled references, set:

```bash
export MINUTES_SKILLS_ROOT="$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)/.agents/skills/minutes"
export MINUTES_SKILL_ROOT="$MINUTES_SKILLS_ROOT/minutes-brief"
```

# /minutes-brief

Fast, non-interactive briefing that synthesizes your relationship history with someone into a one-page brief — designed so you can read it in 60 seconds before walking into a call.

This is the **proactive layer**. It's built to be invoked silently by a hook (e.g., 15 min before a calendar event) and to also work as a manual `/minutes-brief` command. Unlike `/minutes-prep`, brief asks no questions and sets no goals — it just hands you the facts.

## How it works

### Phase 0: Determine the target

Three ways the user can invoke this:

**1. With a name** (`/minutes-brief sarah`, "brief me on Alex")
→ Use that name directly. Before searching, check for learned aliases:

```bash
node "$MINUTES_SKILLS_ROOT/_runtime/hooks/lib/minutes-learn-cli.mjs" aliases "<name>" 2>/dev/null
```
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add silverstein/minutes/minutes-brief@sha256:a4f98f687509b223

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260725.cd88de1, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
