  --owner "Jane Smith" \
  --priority high \

  --meeting "Series B Review"

python scripts/action_item_tracker.py list \
  --filter-status open \
  --filter-priority high

python scripts/action_item_tracker.py complete --id 3

python scripts/action_item_tracker.py dashboard --json

python scripts/action_item_tracker.py update --id 5 \

Workflows

5-Step Briefing Methodology

Meeting Type Selection

Action Item Workflow

1. Capture -- Record action items during or immediately after meeting
2. Assign -- Set owner, priority, and deadline for each item
3. Track -- Monitor progress via dashboard; update status as work progresses
4. Follow-Up -- Follow cadence based on priority level
5. Close -- Mark complete when done; archive for audit trail

Follow-Up Cadence

Meeting Types

Deal Review

Focus: Transaction analysis, contract review, approval requirements.

Board/Committee

Focus: Legal department update, risk highlights, governance.

Regulatory/Government

Focus: Compliance posture, enforcement patterns, privilege considerations.

Troubleshooting
