Call summaries on the client

Nobody writes up a phone call as well as they mean to. This workflow turns every real conversation into three bullet points and a list of next steps, filed on the client.

The Call summaries on the client workflow on the canvas: A call ends, then Over a minute?, then Find the client, then Transcribe, then Summarise, then File on client
