SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? After a conference, meetup, or workshop, the details of who attended, what was discussed, and what follow-ups were promised often get lost. This Skill turns a quick conversation into a structured, cross-referenced event note inside your CRM vault. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Structured event capture: Records event name, date, community, location, and status (attended, upcoming, or scoping) into a dated Markdown note with YAML frontmatter. - Chatham House Rule compliance: Applies a mandatory intake check and flags sensitive events so downstream skills strip speaker identity from public output. - CRM cross-referencing: Wikilinks attendees and organisations to existing CRM contacts, and surfaces missing people or companies for follow-up entry. - Use Case: After attending an industry conference, tell the assistant "I attended the Defence Tech Summit yesterday" and it will file a complete event note with attendees, key threads, and outstanding actions in the right community folder. ## Quick Start Tell the assistant "add an event" and provide the event name, date, and who ran it.

Frequently Asked Questions about add-event

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I log an event I attended into my CRM vault?▼

Run /add-event or say "add an event" and provide the event name, date, and organising community. The skill gathers attendees, organisations, key threads, and actions, then writes a dated Markdown note into the correct Intelligence/events subfolder after your confirmation.

How does the Chatham House Rule check work when capturing events?▼

The skill asks at intake whether the event was held under the Chatham House Rule. If yes, it sets chatham_house: true in frontmatter, adds a #chatham-house-rule tag, and inserts a banner instructing downstream skills to strip speaker identity from public output.

What happens if an attendee is not in my CRM contacts?▼

The skill checks CRM/contacts and CRM/organisations for each person and organisation you mention. Missing entries are listed at the end with a suggestion to run /add-contact or /add-organisation, without blocking the event capture.

Can I log an upcoming event I have not attended yet?▼

Yes. Set the status to upcoming or scoping during intake. The note then uses a Pre-event prep section instead of Key threads and Outstanding actions, which only apply to attended events.

Where are event notes filed in the vault?▼

Notes go into Intelligence/events/, using an existing community or series folder when one exists. The skill asks before creating a new community folder, and genuinely one-off events go into Intelligence/events/one-off/.
