## What it does

Give Norma notes, a transcript or meeting source files. Norma drafts minutes that separate what was discussed, what was decided and what is only proposed. You choose any actions or decisions to carry into other records.

## Usage

Ask Norma in plain language. With Arch Studio connected through MCP, no $ or / command is required. Norma is your assistant working with Arch Studio.

```text
Use Arch Studio to prepare minutes from this note: “Team chose the oak sample. Maya will request an updated quote; no date agreed. Client approval is still pending.” Keep the team decision, proposed follow-up and client approval separate.
```

## What the minutes distinguish

### Discussion and reported information

Norma retains the meeting context and identifies attribution gaps instead of inventing speakers or attendees.

### Decisions and proposals

Norma separates meeting-confirmed decisions from proposed decisions and unresolved questions.

### Follow-up actions

Norma identifies proposed tasks with known owners and dates. Saving minutes does not automatically add those tasks to the register.

## Workflow

1. **Read** — Norma reads the meeting evidence and establishes event dates and coverage.
2. **Draft** — Norma separates discussion, decisions, proposals and open questions.
3. **Review** — You review the minutes and select any items to promote.
4. **Record** — Norma saves the authorized minutes and verifies the document.
