Getting Started

Getting Started with s1ft

Install s1ft on your Mac, allow microphone and system audio, turn on your calendars, and pick an AI engine if you want summaries. Four steps, no account.

AI Engine Setup

Recording & Consent

Meeting Detection

How s1ft automatically detects when a meeting starts and stops, which platforms it supports, and how meeting names are determined.

Finding Your Recordings

Learn where s1ft stores recordings, what files are created for each one, and how to browse, rename, or manage them.

Review your delivery with an AI agent

Use the review-my-delivery and weekly-trends agent skills to review your pauses, pace, uptalk, fillers, and interruptions from the voice data s1ft records in each meeting.

Settings Reference

Every settings tab in s1ft explained: General, AI Engine, Calendars, and Privacy. What each control does and what its default is.

Local Models with Ollama and LM Studio

Run s1ft summaries on your own Mac with Ollama or LM Studio. No API key, no cloud, and a hardware guide for picking a model size that fits your RAM.

Connect AI agents

Let Claude, Codex or another AI agent read your s1ft meetings. Install the s1ft skills, adapt one, and run it automatically after each meeting.

Meeting data files

Field-by-field reference for meeting.json, transcript.json and telemetry.json, the three data files s1ft writes for every meeting, with their schema versions.

s1ft command line reference

Every s1ft command and option: meetings list, search and show, the --attendee filter, voice stats, config dir, JSON output and exit codes.

Write your own s1ft skill

Write a SKILL.md that reads your s1ft meetings through the base skill, test it on your Mac, publish it in your own repo, or send it to the skills repo.
