percept-summarize

Automatic conversation summaries with entity extraction and relationship mapping.

What it does

When a conversation ends (60 seconds of silence), Percept generates an AI-powered summary with extracted entities (people, companies, topics), action items, and relationship connections. Summaries are stored locally and searchable.

When to use

• User asks "what did we talk about?" or "summarize that meeting"
• User wants meeting notes or action items from a conversation
• Agent needs context from a recent conversation

Requirements

• percept-listen skill installed and running
• OpenClaw agent accessible via CLI (used for LLM summarization)

How it works

• Conversation ends (60s silence timeout)
• Percept builds a speaker-tagged transcript
• Sends transcript to OpenClaw for AI summarization
• Extracts entities (people, orgs, topics) and relationships
• Stores summary + entities in SQLite
• Entities linked via relationship graph (works_on, client_of, mentioned_with)

Entity resolution

5-tier cascade for identifying entities:

• Exact match (confidence 1.0)
• Fuzzy match (0.8) — handles typos, nicknames
• Contextual/graph (0.7) — uses relationship connections
• Recency (0.6) — recently mentioned entities ranked higher
• Semantic search (0.5) — vector similarity via LanceDB

Querying summaries

Summaries are searchable via the Percept dashboard (port 8960) or SQLite directly:

SELECT * FROM conversations WHERE summary LIKE '%action items%' ORDER BY end_time DESC;

Full-text search via FTS5:

SELECT * FROM utterances_fts WHERE utterances_fts MATCH 'project deadline';

Data retention
