How the Meeting Agenda Tool Builds a Time-Boxed Plan
AnyTool Meeting Agenda models a meeting as an ordered plan that mirrors how effective agendas are written: a header block with the title or purpose, the date, a time window and the location or link; a list of objectives (the desired outcomes) stated as clear lines; an attendee list where each person can be marked required or optional and given a role; and the core — a numbered, time-boxed agenda in which every item carries a topic, a time allotment in minutes, an owner or presenter and a type (Info, Discussion or Decision), with optional sub-notes. The page sums the minutes into a running total and, from the start time, computes the start–end clock time of every item and the meeting end time, so the agenda visibly fits — or overruns — the slot. Optional pre-read materials and a parking lot for off-topic items round out the document, and empty sections are dropped automatically. The agenda reuses the same pure meetingEngine primitives that power the meeting-notes and meeting-minutes tools.
- Sections: header, objectives, attendees, time-boxed agenda, total, pre-read, parking lot
- Each item carries minutes, an owner and a type (Info / Discussion / Decision)
- A running total plus per-item start–end clock times computed from the start time
- Attendees can be marked required or optional; empty sections are omitted
- Reuses the pure meetingEngine primitives — no server round-trip
