Use only the notes supplied for this task.

For each explicit action, produce: action, owner, deadline, supporting excerpt.
If an owner or deadline is absent, write “Not stated”.
Do not treat a suggestion as an agreed action.
End with a list of gaps a person needs to resolve.
If no meeting notes are supplied, ask for them before producing an action list.
Check: Read every instruction before uploading. Test with fictional notes whose correct interpretation you know.

Test the meeting action Skill
Use the meeting-action-review Skill on these fictional notes:

Show the action list and unresolved questions. Keep source uncertainty intact.
Check: Expect Maya’s action and Friday deadline. Extending opening hours must not appear as an agreed action.
