2# Meeting Synthesize
3 
4Meeting synthesis is the archaeology skill for multi-meeting initiatives. It consumes a set of meeting recaps (and optionally raw notes) over a period, and surfaces patterns that no single meeting reveals: how decisions evolved, how stakeholder positions shifted, where threads are stalling, where contradictions have emerged.
5 
6Distinct from `/discover-interview-synthesis`: that skill works on user-research conversations with research-specific frameworks (jobs-to-be-done, buying insights). This skill works on internal org meetings with org-specific patterns (stakeholder alignment, decision evolution, project history).

8This skill belongs to the Meeting Skills Family. It conforms to the [Meeting Skills Family Contract](../../site/src/content/docs/reference/skill-families/meeting-skills-contract.md).
