Notes

Informal notes, meeting records, feedback, and ideas. Date-prefixed filenames for chronological sorting.

Categories

meetings/

Meeting notes, syncs, and call summaries. Include attendees, key decisions, and action items.

Naming: YYYY-MM-DD <topic>.md (e.g., 2026-05-15 Isaac sync.md)

feedback/

Feedback from users, stakeholders, the dev team, or external reviewers. Include the source and context.

Naming: YYYY-MM-DD <source> - <topic>.md (e.g., 2026-05-15 Isaac - deplatforming concerns.md)

ideas/

Feature ideas, architectural explorations, and “what if” notes. Not committed to — just captured for later evaluation.

Naming: <topic>.md (e.g., Shot timer BLE protocol.md) — no date prefix needed since ideas are timeless until acted on.


AI Agent Instructions

When a human asks you to create or file a note, follow these rules:

  1. Categorize by intent:

    • Someone said something about the product/codebase → feedback/
    • A meeting or conversation happened → meetings/
    • A speculative idea or future exploration → ideas/
    • If unclear, ask the human which category fits.
  2. Use the naming conventions above. Always date-prefix meetings and feedback. Never date-prefix ideas.

  3. Meeting note template:

    # <Topic>
    **Date:** YYYY-MM-DD
    **Attendees:** names
     
    ## Summary
    Brief overview of what was discussed.
     
    ## Key Decisions
    - Decision 1
    - Decision 2
     
    ## Action Items
    - [ ] Action item (owner)
  4. Feedback note template:

    # <Topic>
    **Date:** YYYY-MM-DD
    **Source:** who gave the feedback
    **Context:** how/why this came up
     
    ## Feedback
    What was said or observed.
     
    ## Response / Resolution
    What was decided or what action was taken. Link to relevant docs if a decision was made.
  5. Idea note template:

    # <Topic>
     
    ## Idea
    What the idea is.
     
    ## Motivation
    Why this might be worth pursuing.
     
    ## Open Questions
    - Question 1
    - Question 2
  6. Cross-reference docs. If a note leads to a decision or doc change, link to the relevant doc (e.g., “See Flutter Evaluation for the decision”). If a doc change was prompted by a note, link back to the note.

  7. Don’t over-polish. Notes are informal. Capture the substance, not perfect prose.
