gitwith-charles Standup Agent Skill
Summary
A lightweight AI agent that automatically generates a structured visual summary for recurring standups and operational update meetings.
The agent analyzes changes since the previous working day across platforms like:
- Jira
- GitHub
- Slack
- AI notetakers
- documentation systems
- operational tooling
The goal is to automate meeting prep, reduce repetitive status updates, and surface blockers, risks, signals, and execution insights before the meeting begins.
