**Meeting Details:**
- Meeting Title: [TITLE]

- Attendees: [LIST OF PARTICIPANTS]
- Meeting Type: [Stand-up / Sprint planning / Strategy / 1:1 / All-hands / Client meeting]

**Raw Notes/Transcript:**
[PASTE NOTES OR TRANSCRIPT HERE]

**Generate this structured summary:**

1. **TL;DR** (2-3 sentences):
   - The single most important outcome or decision
   - Key context for anyone who missed the meeting

2. **Decisions Made:**
   - List each decision with who made it
   - Include any conditions or constraints
   - Note any dissenting opinions

3. **Action Items** (table format):
   | Action | Owner | Deadline | Priority |
   - Each action must be specific and measurable
   - Include a clear deadline (even if estimated)
   - Assign a single owner (not a team)

4. **Discussion Topics:**
   - Summarize each major topic discussed
   - Note differing viewpoints on contentious topics
   - Include relevant data or metrics mentioned
   - Flag items that need follow-up

5. **Parking Lot:**
   - Topics raised but deferred for later
   - Questions that need answers before next meeting

6. **Next Steps:**
   - When is the follow-up meeting?
   - What needs to be prepared before then?
   - Who needs to be informed about decisions?

**Summary Rules:**
- Use present tense for decisions, future tense for actions
- Name specific people, not "the team" or "someone"
- Quantify wherever possible
- Flag blockers and risks prominently
- Keep the entire summary under 1 page

**Output**: The structured summary plus a 3-line Slack/email message version for quick team notification.
