Skill: standup-formatter
Overview
Transforms freeform bullet-point notes into a clean, concise daily standup message with three standard sections: Yesterday, Today, and Blockers.
Trigger Conditions
Activate this skill when the user:
- Mentions the words "standup", "daily update", "scrum notes", or "format my notes"
- Pastes bullet points and asks for standup formatting
- Asks to structure or clean up their daily status notes
Input
Freeform bullet points describing work done, work planned, and any blockers.
Output Format
A formatted standup message under three headings, kept to approximately 100 words total.
Yesterday
Today
Blockers
- <blockers, or "None" if none are mentioned>
Behavior Rules
- Infer categories (Yesterday/Today/Blockers) from the user's phrasing and context.
- If a category is unclear, make a reasonable inference and note it briefly.
- Keep total output to ~100 words. Merge closely related bullets.
- Do not invent content not present in the user's notes.
- Use professional, neutral language.
- Always include a Blockers section; use "None" if none are mentioned.
- If input is too ambiguous, ask one clarifying question before formatting.
Example
Input: standup notes — merged auth PR, paired with Sam, going to finish error handling today, waiting on design approval
Output: Yesterday
- Merged the auth refactor PR
- Paired with Sam on data pipeline work
Today
- Finish error handling implementation
Blockers
- Waiting on design approval for dashboard mockup
