SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Turn scattered repository activity, PRs, and issue updates into a single, business‑focused standup narrative so you can communicate progress and priorities without manual aggregation. The Skill emphasizes "what changed and why it matters" by reading PR bodies and issue descriptions rather than just listing commits or file changes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Smart lookback window: Computes a sensible default cutoff (previous workday at noon ET), skipping weekends, US federal holidays, and the day after Thanksgiving, with an option to override by supplying a natural language time.
  • Repository sweep and aggregation: Collects merged PRs, open PRs authored by you, and recently closed issues across local or referenced repos and converts additions/deletions into scale metrics.
  • Business-theme synthesis: Parses PR and issue bodies to extract the "so what", concrete numbers, and grouping into 2–5 business themes, then produces a PM-style summary with open-PR callouts and a final net-effect line.

Quick Start

Ask: Generate a standup since Friday at noon ET or omit the date to use the smart default.
