openclaw meeting-notes

Inspect meeting notes written by the external meeting-notes plugin. This CLI is read-only and is available when that plugin is installed or loaded from source. Capture, import, and summarization are owned by the meeting_notes agent tool and by configured auto-start sources. Use the CLI when you want to find yesterday’s notes, open the Markdown file in an editor, feed a transcript to another tool, or debug where a session landed on disk. It does not start or stop capture. Artifacts live under the OpenClaw state directory: 
$OPENCLAW_STATE_DIR/meeting-notes/YYYY-MM-DD/<session>/
  metadata.json
  transcript.jsonl
  summary.json
  summary.md
The default state directory is ~/.openclaw; set OPENCLAW_STATE_DIR to use a different one. The date directory comes from the session start time, and the session directory is a safe filesystem segment derived from the session id.

​
Commands

openclaw meeting-notes list
openclaw meeting-notes show <session>
openclaw meeting-notes show YYYY-MM-DD/<session>
openclaw meeting-notes path <session>
openclaw meeting-notes path YYYY-MM-DD/<session>
openclaw meeting-notes path <session> --dir
openclaw meeting-notes path <session> --metadata
openclaw meeting-notes path <session> --transcript
openclaw meeting-notes list --json
openclaw meeting-notes show <session> --json
openclaw meeting-notes path <session> --json
  • list: list stored sessions, date-qualified selector, start time, title, and summary.md path.
  • show <session>: print the stored summary.md.
  • path <session>: print the summary.md path.
  • path <session> --dir: print the session directory.
  • path <session> --metadata: print metadata.json.
  • path <session> --transcript: print transcript.jsonl.
  • --json: print machine-readable output.
When a human session id repeats across days, use the date-qualified selector from list, for example openclaw meeting-notes show 2026-05-22/standup. Default session ids include a timestamp and random suffix; configure fixed session ids only when they are unique within the day.

​
Output

list prints one session per line: 
2026-05-22/standup  2026-05-22T09:00:00.000Z  Weekly standup  /Users/alex/.openclaw/meeting-notes/2026-05-22/standup/summary.md
The output is tab-separated. The columns are selector, start time, title, and summary path. The selector is the safest value to pass back to show or path. list --json prints objects with:
  • sessionId
  • selector
  • date
  • title
  • startedAt
  • stoppedAt
  • source
  • path
  • summaryPath
  • hasSummary
show --json returns the stored session metadata, selector, session directory, summary path, and summary Markdown text. path --json returns the selected path and whether that file exists.

​
Many meetings per day

Meeting Notes groups sessions by date, then by session id. Ten meetings on one day become ten sibling folders: 
~/.openclaw/meeting-notes/2026-05-22/
  meeting-2026-05-22T09-00-00-000Z-a1b2c3d4/
  meeting-2026-05-22T10-30-00-000Z-b2c3d4e5/
  standup/
Use default generated ids for most automation. Use a fixed id such as standup only when the same id will not be used twice on the same date.

​
Missing summaries

Live sessions write summary.md when the session stops. Imported transcripts write summary.md immediately after import. A session can still appear in list without a summary when capture is active, a provider failed during stop, or metadata was written before any utterances arrived. Use path <session> --transcript to inspect the append-only transcript, and use the meeting_notes tool action summarize to regenerate the Markdown summary. See Meeting Notes for configuration, auto-start, and source-provider details.
