ACTION-ITEM VERIFIER — STARTER KIT From the AssociationAI.ai tutorial "From Committee Notes to Action Items, Verified Line by Line." WHAT THIS IS This kit operationalizes the tutorial — four stages, ten steps — into tools your team can use on the next committee meeting. The tutorial teaches; this kit is the working version. WHAT'S INSIDE extraction-prompt.md The tutorial's extraction prompt, ready to paste. It forces the AI tool to attach a quoted source line to every action item, which is what the verification stage checks. verification-checklist.md The four stages plus the five-line audit as a printable checklist. Print one per meeting; nothing ships until every box is checked. This demo page (associationai.ai/demos/action-item-verifier/) The interactive version running in your browser: paste the notes, copy the extraction prompt, paste the tool's output back, then keep, fix, or cut each item against its quoted line. It ships a sample AI output with three planted traps so new verifiers can practice the catch: an invented owner, an invented deadline, and a wrong owner. HOW TO USE IT 1. Copy the raw notes into a working document. Leave the original untouched as the record. 2. Decide what the AI tool gets to see. Strip member details you would not share beyond the committee first. 3. Run extraction-prompt.md in the AI chat tool your association allows. 4. Open verification-checklist.md and check each quoted line word for word against the notes. Fix or cut failures; never wave them through. 5. Get the chair's sign-off on the checked list, change nothing after approval, then email it to the committee and file it where the next agenda will find it. THE RULE THAT MAKES IT WORK Every item is a claim about what the committee agreed to, so every item needs a receipt: the exact line it came from. A quote you cannot find in the notes is unverified, however plausible it reads.
