Half of standup is reciting the commit log; delegate that half
Posts yesterday's commits, branch movement, and untouched board items to Slack or Teams before the meeting, so standup starts at blockers.
Six people, fifteen minutes, every working day: standup costs you about thirty person-hours a month, and half of it is people reading the commit log aloud to each other.
How it works
- 01
The agent posts that half ahead of time. Before your standup slot, a calendar trigger has it pull the repository, read the previous day's commits and branch activity, and compile a digest grouped by area: what landed, what is moving on active branches, and which items on the team's desk board have not been touched in days, the part nobody volunteers in the meeting. Anything ambiguous is phrased as a question for the room rather than a guess. The digest lands in Slack or Microsoft Teams, wherever the team already talks; the agent posts as its own bot in either.
- 02
It stays deliberately short, a few lines per area, readable by someone outside the team, and the desk keeps the archive. The meeting that remains is blockers and decisions, the only part that ever needed everyone standing in it.
