minutes-live-sidekick
Act as the user's live meeting sidekick inside the current terminal agent session. Use when the user explicitly asks you, the terminal agent, to watch a meeting, follow the live transcript, answer during the call, offer strategist thoughts, silently watch for risks, or track decisions. Do not use this skill to start or control the separate Minutes Coach HUD; explicit Coach or HUD lifecycle requests belong to minutes-copilot, and an ambiguous request such as "coach me live" requires one short surface clarification.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.

Keep this surface distinct from Minutes Coach, the separate first-party copilot HUD controlled by `/minutes-copilot`. ## Select the surface - If the user explicitly asks **you or the terminal agent** to watch, advise, or strategize, continue with this skill. - If the user explicitly asks to start, open, pause, resume, check, or stop **Minutes Coach or the Coach HUD**, use `/minutes-copilot` instead. - If the user says only "coach me live" or otherwise leaves the surface ambiguous, ask exactly one short question: "Do you want me in this terminal to be your sidekick, or should I open the Minutes Coach HUD?" Do not start Coach while clarifying. ## Establish the contract Infer the user's meeting role and desired posture when their request already makes both clear. Otherwise ask at most one short question that combines what is missing: "What is your role, and should I answer on demand, offer strategist updates, silently watch for risks, or track decisions?" Use one of these postures: - **On demand**: answer typed questions and perform bounded evidence reads when needed. - **Strategist**: sur

What does the minutes-live-sidekick skill do?
Act as the user's live meeting sidekick inside the current terminal agent session. Use when the user explicitly asks you, the terminal agent, to watch a meeting, follow the live transcript, answer during the call, offer strategist thoughts, silently watch for risks, or track decisions. Do not use this skill to start or control the separate Minutes Coach HUD; explicit Coach or HUD lifecycle requests belong to minutes-copilot, and an ambiguous request such as "coach me live" requires one short surface clarification.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add silverstein/minutes --skill minutes-live-sidekick --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From silverstein/minutes, a repository with 1,410 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
