What it does

Once a month it reads the accumulated cycle-time history from Postgres, then hands the trend data to the CEO agent to interpret. The agent writes a short narrative review — where flow efficiency improved or slipped, which stages are dragging, and what to investigate — and posts it alongside the headline metrics to Slack. It turns raw delivery data into a decision-ready briefing.

When to use it

Use it when leadership wants insight, not just dashboards. Ideal for monthly delivery reviews where someone would otherwise spend an hour staring at charts trying to explain the numbers.

How it works

  1. 1A monthly schedule triggers the review.
  2. 2Postgres returns the trailing cycle-time and flow-efficiency records.
  3. 3A compute step rolls them into month-over-month deltas by board and stage.
  4. 4The CEO agent reasons over the deltas and drafts a plain-English review with findings and suggested focus areas.
  5. 5The narrative and supporting numbers are delivered to Slack as the monthly flow-efficiency briefing.
