What it does
Your daily standup written in under a minute: yesterday, today and blockers. If your source control, tracker or chat is connected, it pulls recent commits, pull requests, ticket changes and build status, then sorts them into a short update. Without connections, you tell it roughly what you worked on and it puts it into shape. It keeps the update short and focused on actions, so your team can read it in seconds. You can ask for just one part, such as only blockers. It works well for engineers who forget what they did yesterday by morning.
