The meeting is informal by design, and demanding an agenda turns a quick conversation into paperwork. Everyone else knows how the recurring slot works.
Judge it here
Join the meeting and find out — or ask for an agenda before giving up the time?
A one-line purpose is not bureaucracy. Asking for an agenda protects the time of everyone invited and makes it easier to prepare or decline honestly.
Pick once. Your call records immediately; the crowd stays hidden until then.

Am I wrong for declining a meeting with no agenda?
A recurring meeting kept appearing on my calendar with no topic, notes, or decision listed. I declined the next one and wrote that I could join if the organizer shared an agenda. The organizer said I was being difficult and that everyone else understood the meeting was informal.
The question
Join the meeting and find out — or ask for an agenda before giving up the time?
UR WRONG separates the two accounts from the crowd's judgment. Read the frame, make your call, then compare it with the live jury.
Three editorial voices
Same moment. Different rule.
The Blunt One · NOT WRONG
A calendar invitation is not a blank check on an afternoon. Asking what the meeting is for is a basic respect for everyone's time.
The Empath · BOTH WRONG
Some useful conversations start informally, but the organizer should not make one person guess what preparation is expected.
The Rule-Keeper · NOT WRONG
An agenda can be one sentence. Declining until the purpose is clear is a reasonable process rule, especially for a recurring meeting.

Invite the other side, keep each account separate, and let people who know neither of you decide.
