Git Standup Generator

Generate a clean daily standup summary from your git commits. No more staring at the blank "what did you do yesterday?" field.

What it does

Reads your git log for the last 24 hours (or configurable window)
Groups commits by repo and type (feat/fix/refactor/docs/chore)
Generates a standup in your preferred format (bullet list, Slack-ready, Jira-style)
Flags blocked work and carry-overs automatically
Strips noise: merge commits, version bumps, auto-generated entries

Usage

Run git standup for today.
Look at commits in the last 24 hours across all repos in ~/Projects.
Group by: what I did, what I'm doing today, any blockers.
Format: 3-bullet standup (Yesterday / Today / Blockers).
Keep it under 150 words total.

Example Output

Git Standup — 2026-05-13 (Tue)

YESTERDAY
- Shipped options flow scanner real/lottery split (6 commits, news-engine)
- Fixed ComposioHQ PR CI failure — moved entry alphabetically before CSV Data Summarizer
- Added MIT license to ai-investment-skills for awesome-list compliance

TODAY
- Post-mortem write-up: XLI anomaly methodology
- Review VoltAgent PR #253 feedback
- Start backtest feature scoping

BLOCKERS
- dev.to daily publish limit — 3 articles queued for tomorrow

Configuration

Run git standup:
Repos: ~/Projects/news-engine, ~/Projects/ai-investment-skills
Window: last 24 hours
Author: me (use git config user.email)
Format: slack  # options: bullet | slack | jira | plain
Include: feat, fix, refactor
Exclude: chore, merge commits, version bumps
Max length: 150 words

Formats

Bullet (default): Clean 3-section list Slack: Prefixed with :white_check_mark: / :hammer: / :red_circle: Jira: Extracts ticket numbers from commit messages (e.g. PROJ-123) Plain: Flat chronological list, good for email

Why this beats `git log --oneline`

Raw git log is noisy. This skill:

Deduplicates related commits into one line
Infers intent from commit message prefixes
Separates "done" from "in progress" (unmerged branches = in progress)
Generates human-readable phrasing, not commit hash soup

Requirements

Bash tool access (runs git log internally)
Works with any git repo — no special setup

Free

This skill is fully free and open source.
