ClickUp AI meeting follow-through
A copy-paste playbook so Charms can run, inside ClickUp, the same meeting follow-through system VBI uses today with Fathom and AI bots: notes in a locked format, tasks in the right Space, Folder and List, a recap in Chat, then a daily chase until work is closed.
- Audience Charms, VBI
- Tools AI Notetaker, Brain, Super Agents, Autopilot Agents, Automations
- Pilot first One meeting series, draft mode, then expand
Simple Guide
What this is
This is an internal how-to, not a ClickUp product page. Use the Simple Guide to get a pilot running. Use the Detailed Guide for the exact prompts, routing table, agent instructions, Automations, guardrails and sources. Use Flow when you need to show the path from a live meeting to a closed task.
Every prompt block has a Copy button. Fill in the routing table before you turn any agent loose. Do not put passwords, payment details or private finance data into ClickUp prompts, Docs or this playbook.
Simple Guide
What you are building
Today, Fathom records the meeting. A follow-through bot then writes a locked-format summary, creates tasks in the right ClickUp location, posts a recap in the right Chat channel, and chases owners each weekday at 9:00 AM PHT until those tasks are closed. You will replace that chain with ClickUp-native tools.
- ClickUp AI Notetaker joins Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams or SyncUp meetings and writes a meeting notes Doc.
- ClickUp Brain or a Super Agent rewrites those notes into the locked 14-section summary, then creates or updates tasks in the correct Space, Folder and List.
- A follow-through Super Agent drafts the Chat recap and, after the pilot, can post it as a new channel message.
- A daily chase Super Agent, plus Automations, nudges owners on overdue and due-today work until each task is closed.
- A weekly L10 / scorecard agent and a decision log agent cover meeting prep and a standing record of what was settled.
Simple Guide
Minimum setup
This is the shortest path to a working pilot. An admin or Workspace owner must do steps 1 and 2. You can do the rest once those ClickApps are on and your calendar is connected.
- Confirm the plan and AI credits. AI Notetaker, Super Agents and Autopilot Agents consume AI Credits on most plans. On new plans, Notetaker uses a fixed 180 credits per notetaker hour, and it is unlimited on Enterprise and Max. Unused monthly credits do not roll over. Check Billing with Jab or an admin before a wide rollout.
- Turn on the ClickApps. An admin or owner activates the AI Notetaker ClickApp in the App Center (Collaboration or All ClickApps). Super Agents also need the AI ClickApp, and an admin controls who can create or interact with Super Agents.
- Connect the calendar. Connect your Google Calendar or Outlook Calendar (personal connection only). AI Notetaker can then join meetings that have a Zoom, Teams or Google Meet link. Google Meet and Teams usually need no extra setup. Zoom hosts must allow recording, and may need to approve the Notetaker if Zoom is not connected in ClickUp.
- Set who the Notetaker is for team meetings. For a shared VBI series, choose Shared Notetaker, or Workspace Notetaker if everyone in the Workspace should see the Doc. Set it on All events for a recurring series. This keeps one set of notes and one usage count. If two people both auto-join with Personal Notetaker, ClickUp creates two Docs and bills two usages.
- Set auto-join on your primary calendar. In Planner, click the notes icon, then Settings. Under Auto-join, select your primary calendar. Auto-join applies to your Personal Notetaker unless an admin has set a Workspace default Notetaker type. Auto-join will not add a Personal Notetaker if a Shared or Workspace Notetaker is already on the meeting.
- Fill in the routing table. Open the routing table in this playbook and enter the real VBI Space, Folder, List and Chat channel for the pilot meeting type. The rows included here are a starter to edit, not verified locations.
- Create the Meeting Follow-through Super Agent. In Global Navigation, hover over AI and select Create Agent. Paste the follow-through instructions from the Detailed Guide. Share the pilot meeting notes with that agent (from Planner, from the agent profile, or from AI Notetaker settings under Share meeting notes). Keep it in draft mode: it prepares the locked summary, tasks and recap, and waits for you or the meeting owner to approve before posting.
- Run one meeting, then review. After the pilot meeting ends, open the notes from Meetings Hub, Planner (View AI Notes) or Docs Hub > Meeting Notes. Check the locked summary, every task location, assignee and due date, and the recap draft. Only then add the daily chase, L10 prep and decision log agents.
Simple Guide
Week 1 pilot
Pick one recurring series, for example an SFT L10, not the whole Workspace. Use Shared Notetaker on All events in that series. After each meeting that week:
- Confirm the meeting notes Doc appeared and that the transcript is in it.
- Run or review the follow-through agent. Compare its 14-section summary with the transcript. Invented owners, dates or quotes must be corrected, and the prompt tightened if needed.
- Confirm each new task landed in the right List, with the named owner and the stated due date, and that no duplicate was created.
- Have a human post the recap as a new Chat message, not as a thread reply, until you trust auto-post.
- The next weekday at 9:00 AM PHT, check whether the chase nudge is correct, and that it stops when the task is closed.
If that week is clean, expand to the next meeting type in the routing table. Do not turn on auto-post or Workspace-wide auto-join until the pilot is signed off.
Simple Guide
Limits to know first
- Only Members and Admins can use AI Notetaker. Guests and limited members cannot.
- AI Notetaker is not supported in breakout rooms. If it is removed mid-call, a replacement only captures notes from the moment it rejoins.
- If a meeting is moved to a later date after it has started, you only get notes for the original meeting. Create a new meeting if you still need notes.
- Language is auto-detected. If several languages are spoken, ClickUp tries to transcribe the whole call in the primary language. Meetings that mix English and Filipino should be checked, especially quotes.
- Standard Automations that key off a date with no time fire at 4:00 AM in the creator's timezone. For the 9:00 AM PHT chase, use an Every... trigger set to 9:00, and confirm the creator's timezone in My Settings, or use a Super Agent trigger and test it.
- Threaded comment replies do not trigger Automations. Agents must never post a recap or chase as a reply inside a thread.
- Sharing a Super Agent with all future meeting notes is documented in product messaging and a ClickUp comment dated 27 October 2026. Whether that share applies to every event in a recurring series is something to test.
Detailed Guide
AI Notetaker setup
Official name: ClickUp AI Notetaker. Notes land in ClickUp Docs. You open them from Meetings Hub (Meetings in the Home Sidebar), from Planner by clicking the event and choosing View AI Notes, from the notes icon in Planner, from Docs Hub > Meeting Notes, or by asking Brain.
Activate the ClickApp
- An admin or owner opens the App Center.
- From Collaboration, or All ClickApps, find AI Notetaker and turn it on.
Connect a calendar
Connect Google Calendar or Outlook Calendar in ClickUp. The Google Calendar integration is a personal connection; no one else in the Workspace can see your calendar through it. After it is connected, meetings with a Zoom, Teams or Google Meet link appear in Planner and can take a Notetaker.
Choose a Notetaker type
| Type | Who can open the Doc | When to use it |
|---|---|---|
| Personal Notetaker | Only you | Private notes. This is also what auto-join sends, unless an admin has changed the Workspace default. |
| Shared Notetaker | People who attended, and invitees ClickUp can identify | Default for VBI team meetings. Invitees added only through a Google Group may not get the Doc automatically. |
| Workspace Notetaker | Everyone in the Workspace | Only when the whole Workspace should see the notes. Do not use this for meetings that mix companies or private HR matters. |
If a Shared or Workspace Notetaker is already set, Personal Notetaker is unavailable until someone selects No Notetaker. Anyone invited can add or remove a Shared or Workspace Notetaker. For a recurring event, Planner asks whether the change applies to This event or All events.
Auto-join
- In the upper-right of Planner, click the notes icon, then Settings. You can also open Workspace settings and choose AI Notetaker. Your options are on the My settings tab. Admins also see Admin settings.
- In the Auto-join row, select the primary calendars to join automatically. Only primary calendars can be selected.
- Admins can set the default Notetaker type used when members turn on auto-scheduling, plus the display name, join message (up to 900 characters), and whether notes include the AI Summary, Recording, Transcript and Chat messages. Admins can lock those defaults.
- Optional, on My settings: Share meeting notes lets you choose a Super Agent that should receive your notes automatically.
Send a Notetaker to one meeting
- In Planner or Calendar Glance, click a meeting that has a video link.
- Click Add AI Notetaker and choose the type.
- At the meeting time, the Notetaker joins as an attendee and posts its join message.
- For an ad hoc meeting, paste the meeting link from the Planner notes icon, from your avatar menu (AI Notetaker), or from Meetings Hub > Send AI Notetaker.
What the built-in Doc contains
The Doc is named with the meeting title and date. It includes attendees, a recording (video if the call is one hour or less, audio if it is longer; video is in beta), Overview, Key Takeaways, Next Steps, Key Topics, chat history when available, and a transcript (sometimes on a second Doc page). For Teams, chat history is captured only if the meeting chat is open to anonymous participants. Channel-meeting chat is not captured.
Zoom notes
From the Zoom web Settings, Recording tab, the host should enable Record to computer files, Internal meeting participants, and Auto approve their permission requests. If the host has not connected Zoom in ClickUp, they must click Approve for each Notetaker, and can tick Apply these permissions to all future requests in this meeting. ClickUp uses Zoom's native recording notice to tell participants that recording is on.
Retention
On Enterprise and Max, owners and admins can set Workspace retention (Never expires, or 30, 90, 180 or 360 days). Shortening the period permanently deletes older notes and recordings. This is not available on Core or Business.
Detailed Guide
Locked summary format
This is the format the current follow-through bot already uses. Every official recap must use these 14 sections, in this order, with these rules. Do not add sections. Do not skip a section; if a section has nothing, write "None."
- Every section name is bold, on its own line.
- When a section has more than one item, use bullet points, one item per bullet. Settled uses numbered points.
- Bullets are full plain sentences. Never use "Label: value" fragments.
- Use a short paragraph only for one-item sections, the Bottom line, and the Walkthrough paragraphs.
- Use only the meeting notes Doc, the transcript and the recording. Invent nothing. If something was not stated, say so. Mark anything unverified as "not verified".
- Write in English. Keep quotes in the original language and add an English translation when the original is not English.
- Show times in Asia/Manila (PHT). If the meeting was not in PHT, include both the meeting's local time and the PHT equivalent.
- No emoji. No em dashes. Keep personal details out. This summary is for VBI only; do not include WCL, ACT or personal finance matters.
- Header. One line with the meeting name, the date, the PHT time, who attended, and the ClickUp meeting notes Doc link.
- Overview. The meeting's purpose, who was there, and the 3 to 5 things that matter.
- Bottom line. A short paragraph on what the meeting really was and what it means.
- Settled. Numbered decisions, each with its owner and a timestamp, plus a quote with a translation when it helps. End with what was not settled.
- Walkthrough: topics. What was actually discussed, topic by topic, in full detail: names, numbers, tools, what is broken, and whether each thing is a draft or final. Write one paragraph per topic. Replace the heading with the short list of topics.
- What changed. Bullets, each one old versus new, with its source or timestamp.
- Your commitments. Bullets, written from Jab Guiapal's point of view when he attended. If he did not attend, list only commitments assigned to him, or write "None."
- Others owe you. Bullets, each with the owner, the item and the date.
- Still open. Bullets.
- Flags. Bullets: risks, sensitive points, what was kept out of records, and doubts about the source.
- Exact words. Bullets: short quotes with the speaker and timestamp, in the original language with a translation.
- Next touchpoint.
- Decisions for Jab. Numbered, at most 3.
- Sources. Include the meeting notes Doc link, and mark anything unverified as "not verified".
Detailed Guide
Brain prompts
Use these in two places. First, open the meeting notes Doc, click Brain in the upper-right, and paste the summary prompt, then the task prompt. Second, paste the same text into the Super Agent instructions so the work can run after every shared meeting. During the pilot, run them by hand until the output is trustworthy.
1. Rewrite the notes into the locked summary
You are writing the official meeting follow-through summary for Virtual Business Integrator (VBI). Use only the meeting notes Doc, the transcript, and the recording. Do not invent facts, owners, dates, numbers, or quotes. If something is missing or was not stated, say that it was not stated. Mark anything unverified as "not verified". Write one summary, in English, using the 14 sections below in this exact order. Do not add sections. Do not skip a section. If a section has nothing, write "None." Formatting rules: - Every section name is bold, on its own line. - When a section has more than one item, use bullet points, one item per bullet. Settled uses numbered points. - Bullets are full plain sentences. Never use "Label: value" fragments. - Use a short paragraph only for one-item sections, the Bottom line, and the Walkthrough paragraphs. - Keep personal details out. Respect the walls between companies. This summary is for VBI only. Do not include WCL, ACT, SFT work that belongs to another company, or personal finance matters. - Do not use emoji. Do not use em dashes. - Show times in Asia/Manila (PHT). If the meeting was not held in PHT, include the meeting's local time and the PHT equivalent. - Quotes stay in the original language, with an English translation when the original is not English. Sections: 1. Header. One line with the meeting name, the date, the PHT time, who attended, and the ClickUp meeting notes Doc link. 2. Overview. The meeting's purpose, who was there, and the 3 to 5 things that matter. 3. Bottom line. A short paragraph on what the meeting really was and what it means. 4. Settled. Numbered decisions, each with its owner and a timestamp, plus a quote with a translation when it helps. End with what was NOT settled. 5. Walkthrough: <topics>. What was actually discussed, topic by topic, in full detail: names, numbers, tools, what is broken, and whether each thing is a draft or final. Write one paragraph per topic. Replace <topics> with a short list of the topics. 6. What changed. Bullets, each one old versus new with its source or timestamp. 7. Your commitments. Bullets. Write these from Jab Guiapal's point of view when he attended. If he did not attend, write any commitments assigned to him, or "None." 8. Others owe you. Bullets, each with the owner, the item, and the date. 9. Still open. Bullets. 10. Flags. Bullets: risks, sensitive points, what was kept out of records, and doubts about the source. 11. Exact words. Bullets: short quotes with the speaker and timestamp, in the original language with a translation. 12. Next touchpoint. 13. Decisions for Jab. Numbered, at most 3. 14. Sources. Include the meeting notes Doc link, and mark anything unverified as "not verified". After you draft the summary, wait for a human to approve it before you post it anywhere. During the pilot, leave the approved summary in the meeting notes Doc or in a linked follow-through Doc. Do not auto-post.
2. Turn agreed actions into tasks, without duplicates
Paste this after the summary is approved. Replace the routing table in the prompt with the filled-in table from this playbook.
After the locked summary is complete, extract every action item that was actually agreed in this meeting. For each action item: 1. Search the Workspace first for an existing open task that is the same work. If you find one, do not create a duplicate. Update the existing task: add a comment that it was confirmed in this meeting, link the meeting notes Doc, and adjust the assignee or due date only when the meeting clearly changed them. 2. If no existing task matches, create one task in the Space, Folder, and List from the routing table for this meeting type. If the meeting type is not in the table, do not guess a location. Hold the item and flag it for Charms. 3. Set the task name as a clear verb-plus-outcome sentence. 4. Assign the owner named in the meeting. If no owner was named, leave the task unassigned and flag it in Still open. Do not guess an assignee. 5. Set the due date that was stated. If no date was stated, leave the due date empty and flag it. Do not invent a date. 6. Set priority only if the meeting stated urgency. Otherwise leave the default. 7. Link the meeting notes Doc. Put the source quote or timestamp in the task description. 8. Do not create tasks for ideas that were only discussed and not agreed. Do not create tasks for work that belongs to another company. Routing table (edit this block before use; these locations are a starter, not verified): - Meeting type | Space | Folder | List | Recap Chat channel - SCL weekly / L10 | [SPACE] | [FOLDER] | [LIST] | [CHANNEL] - SFT weekly / L10 | [SPACE] | [FOLDER] | [LIST] | [CHANNEL] - SYS | [SPACE] | [FOLDER] | [LIST] | [CHANNEL] - Gala | [SPACE] | [FOLDER] | [LIST] | [CHANNEL] - Marketing | [SPACE] | [FOLDER] | [LIST] | [CHANNEL] - HR | [SPACE] | [FOLDER] | [LIST] | [CHANNEL] - 1:1 or unlisted VBI meeting | [SPACE] | [FOLDER] | [LIST] | [CHANNEL] Return a numbered list of tasks created or updated, with the List, assignee, due date, and a link to each task. If you skipped an item, say why.
3. Draft the Chat recap
Draft a ClickUp Chat recap for the channel named in the routing table for this meeting type. Rules: - Write it as a new channel message. Never post it as a reply inside a thread. - If more than one update is going out, number the messages (1, 2, 3). - Do not use emoji. Do not use em dashes. - Keep it short: meeting name, date in PHT, link to the locked summary, the settled decisions, and the action items with owners and due dates. - Tag owners with ClickUp mentions in the form [@Name](#user_mention#ID) only when you have the correct user ID. If you do not have the ID, write the person's name in plain text and flag it so a human can add the mention. - Invent nothing. If an owner or due date was not stated, say that it is not set. - During the pilot, do not auto-post. Leave the draft for Charms or the meeting owner to approve, then post. After the pilot is signed off, post only the approved text as a new message in the correct VBI channel.

Agents overview
ClickUp has two agent types you will use. Help articles still call the trigger-based ones Autopilot Agents (formerly Custom Agents). Billing pages may also call them AI Automations. Super Agents are the workspace-wide teammates.
| Super Agents | Autopilot Agents | |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | Work that crosses Spaces, reads meeting Docs, creates tasks in different Lists, and posts to Chat | A single Space, Folder, List or Chat channel, fired by a clear trigger |
| How you build them | AI > Create Agent, or from the Super Agent catalog, or ask Brain. You can also open AI Hub > All Agents > New Super Agent and set Instructions, Triggers, Tools, Knowledge and Memory by hand. | Open the location, click the robot icon, then Create Automation. Set Trigger, Conditions, Action, Knowledge and Tools. Instructions are required. |
| How they start | Manual (@mention, DM, Chat) or automatic, including a Super Agent added to a meeting or shared with meeting notes | Only when the trigger fires and conditions are met. Chat Autopilot has one action: Launch Autopilot Agent. |
| Approval | Designed to ask a human for critical decisions. Use this in week 1. | Runs when triggered. Test on sample data, not live work. |
Create four Super Agents first. Use Autopilot Agents and standard Automations to glue reminders and status changes around them. An admin must allow your role to create Super Agents. Share each agent with the people who need to trigger it. If someone must add the agent to meetings in Planner, test whether they need manage access, not only trigger access. That permission detail is unverified in official help and should be tested.
ClickUp also sells Certified / catalog agents, including an Action Item Extractor in the Accelerator package. Those are optional and may require a sales conversation. This playbook assumes you build the four agents below yourself.
Detailed Guide
Meeting Follow-through agent
This is the core replacement for the current post-meeting bot.
- Trigger. A meeting notes Doc is shared with the agent (from Planner, from the agent profile for all existing and future notes, or from AI Notetaker settings > Share meeting notes). You can also @mention the agent on the Doc during the pilot.
- Tools and permissions. Read Docs (meeting notes and the routing table Doc if you store one). Search tasks. Create and update tasks. Post or draft Chat messages. Link Docs to tasks. Do not give it access to other company Spaces (WCL, ACT) or to any finance, payroll or password Docs.
- Knowledge. This playbook's locked format, the filled routing table, and the VBI Lists and Chat channels in that table only.
- Guardrails. Draft mode in week 1. Never reply inside a thread. Numbered messages. No emoji. No em dashes. Invent nothing. Search for duplicates before creating a task. VBI only.
You are the VBI Meeting Follow-through agent. When you receive a new VBI meeting notes Doc, do this work in order: 1. Read the Doc, the transcript, and the recording if present. Use only those sources. 2. Write the official 14-section locked summary using the locked summary prompt stored in your instructions. Put the draft in the meeting notes Doc or a linked follow-through Doc. 3. Extract agreed action items only. Search for existing open tasks first. Create or update tasks in the Space, Folder, and List from the routing table. Assign the named owner and the stated due date. Do not invent owners or dates. Do not create duplicates. 4. Draft the Chat recap for the channel in the routing table, following the recap prompt. 5. Append settled decisions to the decision log named in the routing table, or flag that the log location is not filled in. 6. Stop and wait for human approval before posting the recap or sending mentions. During the pilot, never auto-post. Hard rules: - VBI meetings only. If the notes belong to another company, or mix companies, do not act. Tell Charms instead. - Never post as a reply inside a thread. Recaps are new channel messages only. - If more than one message is needed, number them. - No emoji. No em dashes. No secrets, passwords, or private finance data. - If the meeting type is not in the routing table, do not guess the List or channel. - Tag people with [@Name](#user_mention#ID) only when you have the correct user ID. - If you are unsure, ask Charms. Do not invent a decision, owner, or due date.
Detailed Guide
Daily owner chase
This replaces the weekday 9:00 AM PHT follow-through chase. It runs until each meeting-created task is closed. Pair it with Automations so a due-date comment still goes out even if the agent is paused.
- Trigger. Every weekday at 9:00 AM Asia/Manila. In a Chat channel, create a Chat Automation with the Every... trigger, set the time to 9:00, and confirm the timezone belongs to Asia/Manila (the Every... trigger uses the timezone in the creator's My Settings unless the trigger shows its own timezone field). Then launch this Super Agent, or @mention it. Test the first run on a weekday. Do not rely on "Due date arrives" or "Date is Before/After" for 9:00 AM; those fire at 4:00 AM local time when no time is set.
- Tools and permissions. Search tasks in the routing-table Lists only. Read status, assignee, due date and last comment. Draft or post a new Chat message, or a new comment on the task. Do not close, delete, reassign or change due dates on your own.
- Guardrails. Chase only tasks this system created or updated from a meeting, or tasks tagged for follow-through (agree the tag with the team, for example "ft-chase"). Skip closed or done tasks. One nudge per task per day. Never a thread reply. Draft mode in week 1.
You are the VBI daily owner-chase agent. Every weekday at 9:00 AM Asia/Manila (PHT), review open follow-through tasks in the Lists from the routing table. Include a task only if: - it is open (not closed or done), and - it was created or updated from a meeting follow-through, or it has the agreed follow-through tag, and - it is overdue, or it is due today in PHT. For each task, draft one short nudge: - Address the assignee by name. Use [@Name](#user_mention#ID) only when you have the correct user ID. - State the task name, due date in PHT, List, and link. - State whether it is due today or overdue, and by how many days if overdue. - Ask for a status, a new date, or a close. - Do not use emoji or em dashes. - Do not invent progress. If there is no recent comment, say that no update was found. Posting rules: - Group nudges into a single numbered Chat post in the agreed follow-through channel, plus a comment on the task if that is enabled after the pilot. - Always post as a new message or a new task comment. Never reply inside a thread. - If more than one message is required, number them. - During the pilot, leave a single draft for Charms to approve. Do not auto-post. - If there is nothing to chase, write "No follow-through tasks due today or overdue" and do not ping anyone. - Do not close, delete, reassign, or change a due date. If an owner asks for a change, flag it for Charms or the meeting owner.
Detailed Guide
Weekly scorecard / L10 prep
Use this the day before each L10 or weekly scorecard meeting, once the routing table has the right List and channel.
- Trigger. Every... on the agreed weekday and time (set in PHT), or a manual @mention the day before the meeting. Adjust the day to match each series. Test the first run.
- Tools and permissions. Read the unit's scorecard, rocks, open issues, overdue follow-through tasks, last meeting's locked summary and the decision log. Draft a prep Doc and a short Chat note. Do not change scorecard numbers.
- Guardrails. Draft only until signed off. Invent nothing. If a number is missing, say it is not in the source. VBI unit only.
You are the VBI weekly L10 and scorecard prep agent. When triggered for a named VBI unit (SCL, SFT, SYS, Gala, Marketing, or HR), prepare a pre-read for the next L10 or weekly scorecard meeting. Use only: the unit's scorecard, rocks, open issues list, open follow-through tasks, the last locked meeting summary, and the decision log. If a source is missing, say it is missing. Do not invent metrics, owners, or dates. Write a prep Doc with these headings, in this order: 1. Header. Unit, meeting date and time in PHT, and links to the sources you used. 2. Scorecard. What is on track, what is off track, and what was not found in the source. 3. Rocks. Status of each rock as stated in the source. 4. Open issues. Issues still open, with owners if stated. 5. Carry-over actions. Open or overdue follow-through tasks, with owners and due dates. 6. Decisions still open. Items from the last summary or decision log that were not settled. 7. Suggested issue list for this meeting. Only items supported by the sources. 8. Sources. Links, and anything that is not verified. Also draft a short Chat note pointing to the prep Doc. Do not use emoji or em dashes. Do not post as a thread reply. During the pilot, leave both drafts for Charms or the meeting owner to approve. Do not change scorecard numbers or close issues on your own.
Detailed Guide
Decision log agent
Keep one decision log per VBI unit, as a Doc or a List, and put that location in the routing table. The follow-through agent can append after each meeting. This agent is the specialist if you want a second pass or a weekly cleanup.
- Trigger. After a locked summary is approved, or a weekly Every... review.
- Tools and permissions. Read the locked summary. Append a row or bullet to the named decision log. Do not overwrite earlier entries.
- Guardrails. Log only items in Settled. Include the date, owner, meeting link and what was not settled. If the log location is empty, stop and tell Charms.
You are the VBI decision log agent. When a locked meeting summary is approved, append that meeting's settled decisions to the decision log named in the routing table for the meeting type. For each settled decision, record: - Date and time in PHT - Meeting name and link to the notes Doc - The decision, in a full sentence - The owner - The source timestamp or quote, if present - Anything the summary listed as not settled Rules: - Append only. Never edit or delete earlier entries. - Log only what appears in Settled. Do not promote Still open items into decisions. - If the routing table has no decision log location, do not create a new Doc or List. Flag it for Charms. - No emoji. No em dashes. No secrets or private finance data. - VBI only. If the meeting is not a VBI meeting, do not log it here. - During the pilot, draft the new entries and wait for approval before writing them into the log.
Detailed Guide
Automations
Standard Automations sit on a Space, Folder, Subfolder or List. Chat Automations sit on a Chat channel (robot icon > Create Automation). Date-based Automations use the timezone of the person who created them. If the date has no time, they fire at 4:00 AM local time.
Plan limits for standard Automation actions, from ClickUp's public pricing page: Free, 100 actions per Workspace per month and 5 active rules; Core, 1,000 actions and unlimited rules; Business, 10,000 actions; Enterprise and Max, 1 million actions. Advanced Automations (webhooks, email, SMS, integrations) start at Business.
| Purpose | Where | Trigger | Action to use | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Weekday 9:00 AM PHT chase | Follow-through Chat channel | Every... on weekdays at 9:00, timezone Asia/Manila | Launch the Daily Owner Chase Super Agent, or post a reminder to run it | Test the first weekday. Confirm timezone. |
| Due today comment | Each follow-through List | Due date arrives, or Date is Before/After set to 0 days before the due date | Add a comment that mentions the assignee and asks for a status | Fires at 4:00 AM local, not 9:00 AM. Use this as a backup, not the main chase. |
| Overdue comment | Each follow-through List | Date is Before/After, 1 day after the due date | Add a comment, and optionally send a channel message | Same 4:00 AM caveat. |
| Stop chasing when done | Each follow-through List | Status changes to Done or Closed | Add a comment "Follow-through complete", remove the chase tag if you use one | The daily agent must also skip closed tasks. |
| New meeting task hygiene | Each follow-through List | Task or subtask created, with a condition that the creator is the follow-through agent | Add the chase tag, set a default status such as Open | Test the condition so manual tasks are not tagged by mistake. |

Useful actions, from ClickUp's Automation Actions help: Add a comment, Send a channel message, Change status, and for Autopilot Agents: Launch Autopilot Agent, Create Docs with AI, Create task with AI, Create subtask with AI, and Edit Custom Field with AI. Confirm the exact action names in your Workspace when you build the rule, because menus can vary by plan.

Digests and movement reviews
The current system also produces integrator-style daily movement reviews, a daily digest, and a decision log. The decision log agent covers the third. Use this prompt for a short weekday digest in the agreed VBI channel. Keep it in draft mode until you like the tone.
You are writing a short VBI daily movement digest for [UNIT or all routed VBI units] for [DATE] in Asia/Manila (PHT). Use only ClickUp tasks, comments, Chat posts, and meeting follow-through Docs from the last 24 hours in the routing-table locations. Do not invent work. If nothing moved, say so. Write one numbered Chat message with these headings, in this order: 1. Header. Unit, date in PHT, and the time window covered. 2. Closed since yesterday. 3. Still open and due today or overdue, with owners. 4. New follow-through tasks created from meetings, with Lists and owners. 5. Decisions logged in the last 24 hours. 6. Flags. Blockers, missing owners or due dates, and anything not verified. 7. Sources. Links only. Rules: - Full sentences. No "Label: value" fragments. - No emoji. No em dashes. - Post as a new channel message, never as a thread reply. - VBI only. Do not include other companies or personal finance. - During the pilot, leave a draft for Charms to approve.

Guardrails
Put these rules in every agent. They match how VBI already runs follow-through in ClickUp Chat.
- Draft first. Auto-post only after the pilot is signed off.
- Never reply inside a thread, including a recap thread. New message or new task comment only.
- Number messages when more than one goes out (1, 2, 3).
- No emoji. No em dashes.
- Invent nothing. Mark unverified items as "not verified". If an owner or date was not stated, leave it empty and flag it.
- Search for an existing open task before creating one.
- Stay inside VBI. Do not write into WCL, ACT or other company Spaces, and do not mix companies in one recap.
- Keep personal details, passwords, and private finance data out of Docs, tasks, prompts and Chat.
- Use ClickUp mentions only when the user ID is known: [@Name](#user_mention#ID).
- Do not close, delete, archive, reassign or change due dates unless a human asked for that change.
- If two Personal Notetakers would join the same meeting, switch to Shared Notetaker so you do not double usage.

Rollout checklist
Status below is the planned sequence as of 12 November 2026, Asia/Manila. Update it as you complete each step. The boxes show recorded status, not a live form.
Before the pilot
- Admin confirms plan, AI Credits, and whether the Workspace is on the new plans or still on a Brain / Everything AI add-on.
- Admin turns on the AI Notetaker ClickApp and the AI ClickApp, and allows Charms to create or manage Super Agents.
- Calendar connected. Zoom host settings checked if the pilot series is on Zoom.
- Routing table filled for the pilot meeting type, including the recap channel and decision log location.
- Shared Notetaker (or the agreed type) set on All events in the pilot series.
- Follow-through Super Agent created, notes shared with it, draft mode on.
Week 1
- Run the first meeting. Confirm the Doc, transcript and recording (if enabled) landed in Meetings Hub.
- Review the locked summary against the transcript. Fix invented or missing items and tighten the prompt if needed.
- Confirm task routing, assignees, due dates and no duplicates.
- Human posts the recap as a new Chat message, with numbered mentions where IDs are known.
- Next weekday, 9:00 AM PHT: test the chase draft, then the Automation timezone.
- Append a draft decision log entry and review it.
After a clean week
- Turn on auto-post for recaps only if Jab or the meeting owner signs off.
- Add the daily chase, L10 prep and decision log agents, still in draft for their first run.
- Expand to the next meeting type in the routing table, one series at a time.
- Only then consider Workspace-wide auto-join or a Workspace default Notetaker type.
- Watch AI Credit use after the first two weeks, especially Notetaker hours at 180 credits each.

Detailed Guide
Plan and credits
Workspaces are being moved to ClickUp's newer plans (Free, Core, Business, Business Plus, Enterprise, Max). Some Workspaces still use older plans and may still have a Brain AI or Everything AI add-on. Check which one VBI is on in Billing before you promise a rollout size.
AI Credits on the new plans
Credits are pooled across the Workspace, reset on the first of each month, and do not roll over. When they run out, credit-consuming features pause until you buy more or upgrade. Brain chat and credit use are tracked separately, but starting a credit feature from a Brain conversation still spends credits. Every Super Agent run spends credits, even when it only answers a question.
| New plan | Monthly AI Credits | AI Notetaker | AI Automations / Autopilot | Super Agents |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free Forever | 500 one-time per Workspace, no reset | Credits (180 per hour) | Credits | Credits |
| Core | 1,000 per seat, pooled | Credits (180 per hour) | Credits | Credits |
| Business | 1,500 per seat, pooled | Credits (180 per hour) | Credits | Credits |
| Business Plus | 2,000 per seat, pooled | Credits (180 per hour). SyncUp AI Notes are unlimited on this plan. | Credits | Credits |
| Enterprise | 3,000 per seat, pooled | Unlimited on new plans | Credits | Credits |
| Max | 10,000 per seat, pooled | Unlimited | Unlimited | Still credits |
If a Workspace on the new plans still has an older AI Notetaker add-on, usage may be measured in hours instead of credits. Usage itself is measured in minutes. Confirm in Billing.
Older plans and add-ons
If VBI has not been upgraded: paid plans with no AI add-on get 1,000 credits per user that do not reset. The Brain AI add-on includes 1,500 credits per user per month and does not include AI Notetaker. The Everything AI add-on includes 5,000 credits per user per month and includes AI Notetaker. An AI Notetaker add-on, where it still exists, has been described as 20 hours to start, then a purchased block of hours. Dollar prices for those add-ons are unverified here; read them in Billing.
What to watch
- A one-hour Notetaker session costs 180 credits on metered plans. Two Personal Notetakers in the same meeting cost twice that.
- Super Agents never become unlimited, including on Max.
- Seat prices from the public pricing page were not reliably readable in this pass, so they are not quoted. Check Billing with Jab or an admin.

Flow
End-to-end flow
This is the path from a live VBI meeting to a closed task. During week 1, the human approval gates stay on. After the pilot is signed off, the same path can post the recap and the weekday chase without a draft step.
Automatic once set up Human approval in the pilot
The meeting starts
A scheduled or ad hoc VBI meeting on Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams or a ClickUp SyncUp, with the calendar connected in Planner.
AI Notetaker joins
Shared Notetaker (recommended for team series) or Workspace Notetaker joins as an attendee, posts the join message, records and transcribes. One Notetaker per meeting, so usage is counted once.
A meeting notes Doc is created
After the call, ClickUp writes a Doc with the built-in Overview, Key Takeaways, Next Steps, Key Topics, recording and transcript. Open it from Meetings Hub, Planner (View AI Notes) or Docs Hub > Meeting Notes.
Brain or the Follow-through agent rewrites the notes
The Super Agent that received the notes, or Brain opened on the Doc, writes the locked 14-section summary. Nothing is invented. The draft waits for review in week 1.
Tasks go to the right List
Agreed actions are matched against open tasks, then created or updated in Space > Folder > List from the routing table, with assignee, due date and priority only when those were stated.
The decision log is updated
Settled items are appended to the unit's decision log. Earlier entries are not overwritten. Items that were not settled stay out of the log.
A recap is posted in Chat
A short, numbered recap goes to the channel in the routing table: meeting name, date, summary link, settled decisions, owners and due dates. It is always a new message, never a thread reply. In week 1 a human posts the approved draft.
Daily chase at 9:00 AM PHT
Each weekday, the Daily Owner Chase agent reviews overdue and due-today follow-through tasks and drafts one grouped nudge. Automations can also leave a due-date comment at 4:00 AM as a backup. Closed tasks are skipped.
The task is closed
When the owner finishes the work and the status moves to Done or Closed, chasing stops. An Automation can stamp "Follow-through complete" and remove the chase tag. The weekday digest and the next L10 prep then read the closed item as done.
A second, slower loop sits beside this path: the weekly L10 / scorecard prep agent reads the last summary, open tasks, scorecard and decision log, and drafts a pre-read the day before the next meeting.
Flow
Who does what
| Step | Who runs it | Who checks it |
|---|---|---|
| Calendar, ClickApps, plan and credits | Admin or Workspace owner, with Jab on credits | Charms confirms Notetaker appears in Planner |
| Auto-join and Shared Notetaker on the series | Charms, or an invited attendee | Charms, before the first pilot meeting |
| Routing table | Charms fills the real VBI locations | Meeting owner or Jab, if a List is unclear |
| Locked summary, tasks, recap draft, decision log | Follow-through Super Agent or Brain | Charms or the meeting owner, every time in week 1 |
| Chat recap post | A human in week 1, then the agent if signed off | Must be a new message, never a thread reply |
| 9:00 AM PHT chase | Daily chase agent plus Automations | Charms reviews the first weekday runs |
| Weekly L10 prep | L10 / scorecard agent | Meeting owner, before the meeting |
| Closing the task | The named owner | Chase stops automatically once status is done or closed |
