Standup update

Standup / Daily Update Writer

Quick start

1. Collect raw notes: commits, tickets, bullets, or voice-to-text dumps.
2. Sort items into yesterday (done), today (planned), and blockers.
3. Keep each section to 2–5 bullets; lead with outcomes, not activity.
4. Output in the template below unless the user requests a different format.

Output template

**Yesterday**
- [Completed outcome or deliverable]
- [Another completed item]

**Today**
- [Planned focus or next step]
- [Another planned item]

**Blockers**
- [Blocker with who/what is needed] — or "None"

Writing rules

• Yesterday — Past tense; emphasize results ("shipped login fix") not process ("worked on login").
• Today — Present or future tense; one primary focus per bullet.
• Blockers — Be specific: dependency, decision, access, or person needed. Omit fluff.
• Length — Default to three sections only; skip optional sections unless asked.
• Tone — Direct and scannable for async channels (Slack, Teams, email).

Optional variants

If the user asks for a shorter format:

Done: [item 1]; [item 2]
Next: [item 1]; [item 2]
Blocked: [blocker] or None

If the user asks for a team-wide roll-up, group by person or squad using the same three sections.
