Meeting Agenda

A meeting agenda is the attendee-facing structural document that sets expectations before a meeting. It answers "what will we discuss, who owns each topic, how will we spend the time, and what does done look like?" Distinct from a meeting brief, which is the user's private strategic prep; the agenda is shared with participants and focused on structure and flow.

This skill belongs to the Meeting Skills Family. It conforms to the Meeting Skills Family Contract, which defines shared frontmatter, file naming, the go-mode behavioral pattern, and universal output requirements across all meeting skills.

When to Use

• Running or chairing a cross-functional working session, project kickoff, stakeholder review, or decision meeting
• Any meeting with more than three attendees or more than thirty minutes
• Recurring meeting where a rolling structure (1-on-1, team sync) needs fresh framing each time
• Mid-initiative alignment moment where explicit desired outcomes prevent drift

When NOT to Use

• The user's preparation is private and tactical (positioning, stakeholder reads, asks). Use foundation-meeting-brief instead.
• The meeting has already happened. Use foundation-meeting-recap for post-meeting summarization.
• The user wants to communicate outcomes to non-attendees. Use foundation-stakeholder-update after the meeting.
