From the author

Generate a standup update from recent activity. Use when preparing for daily standup, summarizing yesterday's commits and PRs and ticket moves, formatting work into yesterday/today/blockers, or structuring a few rough notes into a shareable update.

AutoGineer summary

Written by AutoGineer from the skill’s own files, not by the author

The standup skill streamlines the daily reporting process by aggregating information from your connected tools or manual input. It transforms raw data—such as commits, pull requests, ticket status changes, and chat discussions—into a structured, professional update formatted for daily team meetings. By organizing work into clear categories of yesterday's accomplishments, today's goals, and current blockers, it helps teams maintain transparency and efficiency.

What it does

  • Aggregates recent activity from connected source control, project trackers, and chat tools.
  • Structures rough notes or activity logs into a standard yesterday/today/blockers format.
  • Summarizes high-level code changes and pull request activity.
  • Identifies ticket status transitions and upcoming sprint items.
  • Flags relevant discussions or decisions from chat history.
  • Provides a consistent, shareable template for team standup meetings.

When to use it

  • Every morning before your team's daily standup meeting.
  • When you need to quickly summarize your recent technical contributions.
  • When you have rough notes that need to be formatted into a professional update.
  • When you need to identify and clearly communicate project blockers to your team.

Advantages

  • Saves time by automating the collection of project activity.
  • Ensures standup updates are consistent and easy for team members to read.
  • Reduces the cognitive load of remembering every task completed the previous day.
  • Helps maintain focus by clearly highlighting blockers that require attention.

Usage examples

“/standup”
The agent automatically pulls recent commits, PRs, and ticket updates to generate a formatted standup report for the current date.
“I worked on the auth migration, reviewed 3 PRs, and I am blocked on the API rate limiting issue.”
The agent takes these manual notes and organizes them into the standard yesterday/today/blockers structure.

What I Need From You

Option A: Let me pull it If your tools are connected, just say /standup and I'll gather everything automatically.

Option B: Tell me what you did "Worked on the auth migration, reviewed 3 PRs, got blocked on the API rate limiting issue."

Output

## Standup — [Date]

### Yesterday
- [Completed item with ticket reference if available]
- [Completed item]

### Today
- [Planned item with ticket reference]
- [Planned item]

### Blockers
- [Blocker with context and who can help]

If Connectors Available

If ~~source control is connected:

  • Pull recent commits and PRs (opened, reviewed, merged)

  • Summarize code changes at a high level

If ~~project tracker is connected:

  • Pull tickets moved to "in progress" or "done"

  • Show upcoming sprint items

If ~~chat is connected:

  • Scan for relevant discussions and decisions

  • Flag threads needing your response

Tips

  1. Run it every morning — Build a habit and never scramble for standup notes.

  2. Add context — After I generate, add any nuance about blockers or priorities.

  3. Share format — Ask me to format for Slack, email, or your team's standup tool.
