*]:md:h-full">

Obsidian plugin that syncs your meeting transcripts, notes, and AI summaries into your vault — from MacParakeet and Fellow, one folder per meeting. A meeting recorded by both sources merges into a single folder instead of duplicating.

What it does

One folder per meeting , with a folder-note index plus the meeting's artifacts. Each artifact is tagged by source (Summary (MacParakeet).md, Summary (Fellow).md), so a meeting captured by both stays unambiguous.

Cross-source merge : meetings recorded by both sources land in one folder, matched by time-interval overlap (title similarity breaks ties). The index carries both source ids and the meeting interval; uncertain matches are flagged merge-confidence: low for review.

Incremental & non-destructive : each sync skips unchanged meetings, and a late Fellow recap merges into the folder MacParakeet already made. The vault is your archive — deleting a meeting in a source never touches your vault, and files you add to a meeting folder are left alone.

Sources

Each source is toggled independently; a disabled source is completely inert — no requests, writes, or notices.

MacParakeet — local CLI, opt-in

Reads meetings from macparakeet-cli (no network, no accounts, no database access). Requires macOS with MacParakeet installed (the CLI ships inside the app) or the standalone CLI (brew install moona3k/tap/macparakeet-cli), and Obsidian desktop. The plugin auto-detects the CLI (Homebrew paths, then the app bundle); override the path in settings if needed, and the health check confirms it. Enable it in Settings → Meeting Notes Sync.

Fellow — REST API, opt-in

Polls Fellow's REST Developer API for cloud AI recaps. Setup:

A paid Fellow plan , with a workspace admin enabling the API (Workspace Settings → Security).

Generate a personal API key (User Settings → Developer Tools) — scoped to what you can see, revocable, audit-logged.

In Settings → Meeting Notes Sync: enable Fellow, enter your subdomain (the acme in acme.fellow.app) and key , then use Check connection to verify.

⚠️ The Fellow key is stored in plaintext in data.json (standard for API-backed plugins). If your vault is in git or a synced folder, exclude that file and treat the key as a secret; revoke it in Fellow if it leaks.

Installation

Pending community-store review — until it lands there, install via BRAT (Add beta plugin → andreagrandi/obsidian-meeting-notes-sync), or manually drop main.js + manifest.json from a release into /.obsidian/plugins/meeting-notes-sync/ and enable the plugin. To build from source:

git clone https://github.com/andreagrandi/obsidian-meeting-notes-sync<br>cd obsidian-meeting-notes-sync && npm install && npm run build<br># copy main.js + manifest.json into /.obsidian/plugins/meeting-notes-sync/

Migrating from "MacParakeet Sync"

If you used an earlier build under the macparakeet-sync id: quit Obsidian, rename /.obsidian/plugins/macparakeet-sync/ → meeting-notes-sync/, reopen, and re-enable. This keeps data.json (numbering, snapshots, file ownership) so the next sync is a no-op instead of re-importing. Existing folders keep their names; only new artifacts get the source suffix.

Settings & usage

Sync runs shortly after launch and every 30 minutes (configurable; 0 disables), or on demand via the ribbon icon / Sync now . The main settings:

Sources — enable MacParakeet and/or Fellow (see above).

Base folder — where meeting folders go (empty = vault root, so the default template's Meetings/… is the root).

Path template — folder path per meeting (see tokens below).

Content — AI results (on), meeting notes (on), full transcript (off; transcripts are long). Applies to every source.

Sync since — only meetings on/after this date import (default: install date). Move it back to backfill history.

Path template tokens

{year} · {month} · {monthName} (June) · {monthShort} (Jun) · {day} · {dayOrdinal} (2nd) · {date} (YYYY-MM-DD) · {n} (per-month number) · {title}. Unknown tokens are left as-is.

Default: Meetings/{year}/{month} - {monthName}/{n} - {title} - {monthShort} {dayOrdinal} → Meetings/2026/06 - June/4 - Core sync-discovery - Jun 2nd. The trailing date disambiguates recurring meetings that share a title.

Merge tuning

Overlap threshold (fraction of the shorter meeting, default 0.5) and minimum overlap (minutes) govern when two sources' meetings are treated as one. Raise them to merge more conservatively.
