# Meet

## The Meeting Nobody Needed

At some point today, somewhere in the world, forty-seven people are sitting in a conference
room for a one-hour meeting that could have been a two-paragraph email. They know this.
The person who called the meeting knows this. Nobody says it.

At the same time, somewhere else, two people are exchanging their fourteenth email on a
decision that would take four minutes to resolve if they just talked.

Bad meeting culture does not have one failure mode. It has two: too many meetings that
should not exist, and too few of the conversations that should.

This skill fixes both.

## Meeting Classification
```
MEETING_TYPES = {
  "decision":      {
    "purpose":    "A specific decision must be made before people leave",
    "required":   "Decision owner, options pre-circulated, clear criteria",
    "failure":    "Leaving without a decision documented and assigned"
  },
  "alignment":     {
    "purpose":    "Everyone needs the same understanding of something",
    "required":   "What specifically needs to be aligned, why async failed",
    "failure":    "Sharing information that could have been an email"
  },
  "creative":      {
    "purpose":    "Generate options, ideas, or approaches that require real-time interaction",
    "required":   "Diverge before converge — all ideas before evaluation",
    "failure":    "HiPPO effect — highest paid person's opinion dominates early"
  },
  "relationship":  {
    "purpose":    "Build trust, connection, and shared context that enables future work",
    "required":   "Intentional structure — this does not happen by accident",
    "failure":    "Filling with status updates instead of genuine connection"
  },
  "should_not_exist": {
    "status_update":  "Use async tools — weekly written update replaces 30 min standup",
    "one_way_info":   "Record a video or write it — do not call 20 people to read slides",
    "FYI_meeting":    "If no one needs to say or do anything, it is not a meeting"
  }...
