 This skill uses, but does not own, the following connected tools — confirm they're
 reachable before starting, and degrade gracefully (see Hard Rules) if one isn't:

+- **Plaud** — meeting transcripts (recap: current meeting; agenda: previous meeting).
+  Use the official `Plaud` connector (`get_current_user`, `list_files`, `get_file`,
+  `get_transcript`, `get_note`) — **not** the older `Plaud MCP` connector, which
+  predates Plaud's own official one and should be treated as deprecated. Resolve a
+  recording's `file_id` via `list_files` (filter by `query`/`date_from`/`date_to`) —
+  never assume a Plaud web-app URL's slug is the API `file_id` directly; the API id
+  carries an `of_` prefix the web URL does not show. `get_transcript` paginates
+  (`next_cursor`) — loop until it's null before treating the transcript as complete.
+  `get_note` returns the AI summary/action items tab separately from the raw
+  transcript — worth pulling alongside `get_transcript`, not instead of it.

-runs as a **local server via the Claude Desktop app**, not a cloud connector. Confirmed
-still broken after Bryan verified the connector's own settings looked correct. Treat

-(2026-09-16 APTA meeting) used a manually uploaded transcript as a workaround, not a

+Earlier attempts to pull this skill's first real test recording failed for two
+compounding reasons, now both understood:
+1. The deprecated `Plaud MCP` connector's `list`/`search` tools returned empty results
+   or timed out regardless of parameters — root cause not fully diagnosed, but moot:
+   don't use that connector at all (see Prerequisites above).
+2. Direct lookup via the *official* `Plaud` connector's `get_file`/`get_transcript`
+   still 404'd, because the id taken from the Plaud web app's URL
+   (`b0df60b679f31383f770d91db6b5bf46`) was missing the `of_` prefix the API's real
+   `file_id` requires (`of_b0df60b679f31383f770d91db6b5bf46`). Resolving the id via
+   `list_files(query=...)` instead of reading it off a URL fixed this immediately.
+
+Verified 2026-09-22: a live pull via the official connector for this same recording
+returned content matching the manually-uploaded transcript used to build the first
+real brief, confirming both that the fix works and that the original brief's content
+was accurate. Recap mode's live data path is now confirmed working end-to-end.
