**Apologies:**

## A. AI position

No agreed EVERSE position on AI. Feeds Fotis's policy brief, due February 2027.

## B. Michael Sparks document

"How do you use AI to develop quality research software" — Spectrum of AI Intensity framework. RSQKit split targeted for today.

## C. HSF/ESCAPE collaboration

Caterina Doglioni: HSF/ESCAPE AI-assisted-coding guidelines, lighter-weight than RSQKit, proposed co-organised with EVERSE.

## D. What do we build

No model training. Guidance and skills/prompts. MCPs undecided.

Hugo's prototypes (TeSS metadata agent, RSQKit chatbot) — blocked on compute and authorisation, no change since April.

## E. AI webinar

Joint with ReSA (Michelle Barker), target October/November. Contact not yet made.

## F. RF section reviews

PR #26 (sustainability) and PR #30 (Three-Tiers View) open, unreviewed. #12–#15 unowned. Status only — tracked on GitHub.

## Pre-meeting note — 1:1 Giacomo / Hugo Bacard, 16 June 2026
No one joined — meeting rescheduled without checking availability. Rescheduled to 13 July. Agenda below kept for reference; superseded where relevant by the 13 July agenda above.

Pre-meeting note (Hugo, 16 June): TeSS agent and RSQKit chatbot prototypes both still blocked on compute and formal AI authorisation — no change since.

## A. Actions from 18 May — update

Hugo's AI work within EVERSE covers two streams: a RAG-based RSQKit chatbot (prototype exists, repo unmaintained) and a TeSS metadata extractor agent (working prototype with Kenneth Rioja). Both are blocked on compute (EOSC/AI4EOSC insufficient for agentic workflows) and on formal authorisation to use AI within the project.
Done ahead of this meeting:
- GitHub issues assigned to agreed owners: Daniel (#6, #7, #8, #18), Shoaib (#4, #5, #20), Thomas (#10, #11)
- Neil nudged on community dimension references (#18)
- Shoaib nudged on audience statement (#20)
- Thomas nudged on views chapters (#10, #11)
- AI and openness issue published to ai-everse (#1)
- 3 new ai-everse issues filed from 1:1 with Hugo (#2, #3, #4)

Key question raised: is a custom chatbot worthwhile given that general LLMs already handle RSQKit content adequately? The case rests on privacy (self-hosted model, no third-party data exposure) and deeper integration (following links within RSQKit pages). Hugo proposes a modular architecture — static RAG first, web search activatable via config flag later. Three issues filed in ai-everse: #2 (use case), #3 (compute), #4 (authorisation).
Still outstanding: Fotis check on AI scope; Senem issue; Patrick Rein email to Faruk.

## A. Actions from 18 May
## B. Reference Framework review status

## B. Hugo: AI tools update
18 open issues. Owners now assigned across all framework and views chapters. Only active PR: #26 (Thomas's sustainability rewrite — Giacomo reviewing before this meeting). #12–#15 remain unowned (raised on Mattermost). Daniel working on community indicators (#18), waiting on Neil's references.

TeSS agent and RSQKit chatbot/assistant — update and discussion. See pre-meeting note and ai-everse issues [#2](https://github.com/EVERSE-ResearchSoftware/ai-everse/issues/2), [#3](https://github.com/EVERSE-ResearchSoftware/ai-everse/issues/3), [#4](https://github.com/EVERSE-ResearchSoftware/ai-everse/issues/4).
## C. Hugo: AI tools update

## C. Section ownership: #12–#15
Did not happen — see pre-meeting note above.

## D. Section ownership: #12–#15

Lifecycle, personas, science clusters, conclusions — still unowned. Raised on Mattermost; volunteers needed.
