Git Standup

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.

Exclude: chore, merge commits, version bumps
Max length: 150 words

Formats

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.

Author

Built because standup prep was taking 5 minutes every morning for something that should take 5 seconds.
