What it does

Ahead of a recurring standup, this workflow pulls open dependencies across both Linear and ClickUp, has an agent reason about which downstream items are most at risk from current blockers, and posts a concise briefing to the team's Slack channel so the standup opens on the real bottlenecks instead of a round-robin of updates.

When to use it

Use it when standups burn time discovering blockers live. The pre-brief surfaces the cross-board risk picture before anyone joins, so the meeting goes straight to decisions.

How it works

  1. 1A Google Calendar trigger fires shortly before the recurring standup event begins.
  2. 2The flow collects blocked items and their dependency links from Linear and ClickUp.
  3. 3An agent ranks the downstream work by how close it sits to a deadline behind an unresolved blocker.
  4. 4It drafts a short briefing naming the top at-risk threads and who owns the blocker.
  5. 5The briefing is posted to the standup's Slack channel a few minutes before start.
