What it does

Gives managers instant standup context without waiting for the daily digest. A manager invokes a Slack command naming a teammate; the agent fetches that person's most recent Loom standup and their recent GitHub commit history, reconciles the two, and replies in-thread with a concise status: current focus, what shipped, and any open blocker, all grounded in real activity.

When to use it

When a 1:1 or planning conversation needs a quick, accurate read on what someone is actually working on, and scrolling Loom and GitHub by hand is too slow.

How it works

  1. 1A Slack slash command naming a teammate triggers the agent.
  2. 2The agent resolves the named person and fetches their latest Loom standup transcript.
  3. 3It pulls that person's recent GitHub commits and open PRs.
  4. 4An OpenAI step reconciles spoken update against actual code activity and writes a focused status with any blocker flagged.
  5. 5The agent replies in the originating Slack thread.
