Fetch Action Items via MCP Server

The `get_action_items` tool pulls out every task assigned during a recording. It formats this data so you can immediately see who owns what and when it's due. This is huge for follow-up. Instead of skimming the transcript, your agent gets a clean list of tasks that need tracking. You'll know exactly where to send the follow-up email.

Check Meeting Status

Need to verify if Tactiq is running? Just call `check_tactiq_status`. This tool confirms your API connectivity and tells you right away if there are any service issues. It’s a quick sanity check. You don't have to log into the web portal just to make sure the connection works—your agent handles it instantly.

Get Detailed Transcripts

`get_transcript` gives you granular access to any recording. It pulls down the full text, speaker identification, and timestamps for maximum detail. When you need to find a specific quote or argument that was made three weeks ago, this tool does the heavy lifting. You just point it at the meeting ID.
