## Procedure

1. Confirm audience, purpose, publication channel, approvals, and available evidence.
2. Verify event name, date, attendance definition, speakers, sessions, commitments, and results.
3. Lead with what happened and why it matters rather than promotional adjectives.
4. Summarize key ideas, decisions, questions, resources, and next actions with source attribution.
5. Distinguish attendance, satisfaction, reach, output, outcome, and anecdote.
6. Add accessible recordings, transcripts, slides, links, image descriptions, and contact paths where approved.
7. Check quotes, names, photographs, consent, confidentiality, sponsor acknowledgement, and unresolved claims.
8. Publish the approved version and record later corrections.

## Guardrails

- Do not invent quotes, consensus, impact, attendance, or commitments.
- Never publish sensitive participant, incident, commercial, or access information without permission.
- Do not treat promotional reach as proof of participant outcome.

## Done

- A recap draft traces factual claims, quotes, outcomes, and actions to evidence
