# Fathom Local Dev Loop

## Overview

Use Fathom integrations in the normal local development loop: narrow change, synthetic validation, review, focused tests, and reversible commit.

## Prerequisites

- A clean or recoverable branch, development credential, synthetic meeting/CRM fixtures, repository rules, and test commands.

## Instructions

1. Make one scoped integration/configuration change using development-only data and identity.
2. Inspect the diff, run focused mock/unit checks, and execute a bounded synthetic workflow test.
3. Commit reviewed changes separately and promote only through normal protected workflow.

## Output

- A small reviewed change with test evidence and a normal rollback path, without production meeting or contact data.

## Error Handling

| Condition | Safe response |
|---|---|
| Synthetic test exposes real data | Stop, restrict access, and follow the data procedure. |
| CRM mapping/test fails | Revert or correct within scope; do not use production records to diagnose. |
| Working tree is mixed | Separate unrelated changes before committing. |

## Examples

Update one mapping using a synthetic meeting/action, run its focused test, inspect the redacted result, and commit it separately. If the test fails or unrelated files change, revert/split the work rather than disabling checks or pointing local tooling at production.

## Mock Meeting Data

```python
MOCK_MEETING = {
    "id": "mtg-123",
    "title": "Product Review Q1",
    "created_at": "2026-03-20T14:00:00Z",
    "duration_seconds": 1800,
    "participants": ["alice@example.com", "bob@example.com"],
    "summary": "Discussed Q1 roadmap priorities. Agreed to focus on API improvements.",
    "action_items": [
        {"text": "Alice to draft API spec by Friday", "assignee": "alice@example.com"},
        {"text": "Bob to review competitor analysis", "assignee": "bob@example.com"}
    ]
}

MOCK_TRANSCRIPT = {
    "segments": [
        {"speaker": "Alice", "text": "Let us review the Q1 priorities.", "start_time": 0.0},
        {"speaker": "Bob", "text": "I think the API work should come first.", "start_time": 5.2},
    ]
}
```

## Development Script

```bash
# Run with mock data (no API calls)
FATHOM_MOCK=true python3 src/transcript_processor.py

# Run with real API
python3 src/transcript_processor.py
```
