DevOps Daily Update
Composes a standup / EOD update in the team's standard Slack format and writes it to a temp file ready to paste. Sourced from the user's GitHub activity in tetherto/qvac plus optional Asana context.
The skill is read-only with respect to GitHub state and the local working tree. It NEVER posts the message — the user copies it manually. The canonical Slack form is documented in Step 8.
When to use this skill
Use when:
User asks for a "daily update", "standup", "EOD", or "what did I do yesterday?"
User invokes /qv-devops-daily-update
User asks to draft a status post for the team channel
Prerequisites
gh CLI installed and authenticated (gh auth status)
User has access to tetherto/qvac
Optional: Asana MCP available — surfaces today's assigned tasks (degrades gracefully if not)
Inputs
Optional: --since <ISO date | Nd | Nw> — defaults to yesterday 00:00 in the user's local timezone. The default 24-hour lookback works for both EOD posts (late evening) and morning standups; extend it for Monday-after-weekend (--since 3d) or post-holiday (--since 1w).
Optional: --format slack | markdown — defaults to slack. The Slack form is what gets pasted; Markdown is the chat preview form (**bold**, [text](URL)) and is also accepted by Asana rich-text comments.
Optional: --no-asana — skip the Asana lookup even if the MCP is available.
If the user did not specify, default to yesterday 00:00 / slack.
Safety rules
This skill is read-only. It does NOT:
Modify the user's working tree, branch, or any file under ~/.cache/
Post to Slack, Asana, or GitHub
Write secrets to any output (the assembler runs a regex scrub before file write; see step 7)
The skill MAY write its assembled output to /tmp/devops-daily-update-<YYYY-MM-DD>.txt so the user can pbcopy < <path>. The extension is .txt (not .md) because the canonical form is Slack mrkdwn, not GitHub-flavored Markdown.
Efficiency rules
Total shell calls per run: ≤ 6 (one per data source + one for the timestamp + one to write the temp file). Cache gh api user and reuse via Read for the rest of the session. If a data source errors (e.g., Asana MCP not configured), continue with that section's items missing from the aggregate rather than failing the whole skill — the canonical form does not have an "Asana" section, so missing Asana data only thins out the bullet pools, not the layout.
These feed 🔨 Done today. gh search prs --json does not expose mergedAt, additions, or deletions — only closedAt is available, and the --merged-at ">=$SINCE" filter already guarantees the result set is merged-in-window. If size signal is needed for the bullet wording, fetch it per-PR via gh pr view <num> --json additions,deletions (one extra call per PR — only do this when the user asks for it).
If pr-status.mjs stderr contains SLACK_VALIDATION_REQUIRED, follow the validation gate in pr-mine's workflow (step 2). Do not present the daily update until the gate clears.
Output routing:
Open PRs I authored that received commits since $SINCE (i.e., I pushed work on them today) → 🔨 Done today with the action addressed comments on the PR (when the recent commits follow a review event) or pushed updates on <topic> (otherwise).
Open PRs I authored without recent commits → 📅 Planned for tomorrow with the action continue / wrap up <topic>.
Reviews owed (--review-requested "@me") → 📅 Planned for tomorrow as review #<num> — <title> by <author>. Cap surfaced reviews at 5 (sorted by updatedAt desc — most recent first); if the queue is longer, append a single line (+N more review requests in queue — run /qv-devops-pr-status for the full list). A standup with 30 review-bullets is unreadable.
Open PRs I authored with mergeable: CONFLICTING → 🚧 Blockers / risks as conflicts on #<num> — needs rebase.
Open PRs I authored with stale review requests (no review activity in >3 days) → 🚧 Blockers / risks as stale review on #<num> — pinged <reviewer> on <date>.
5. Pull recent CI runs (filter to mine)
gh run list does not have an author filter. Approximate the user's runs by scoping to recent PR head branches:
gh run list \
--repo tetherto/qvac \
--created ">=$SINCE" \
--limit 50 \
--json conclusion,event,headBranch,name,url,workflowName,headSha,displayTitle \
> /tmp/devops-daily-update-runs.json
Filter client-side: keep runs where headBranch matches one of the user's PRs from steps 3 or 4. Failed runs feed 🚧 Blockers / risks as CI failing on #<num> — <workflowName>. In-progress / queued runs are NOT surfaced (too noisy for a daily update).
6. (Optional) Pull today's Asana tasks
If the Asana MCP is available and --no-asana was not passed, call the appropriate tool (read the descriptor first per the agentic-automation rule) to fetch the user's tasks. Filter to:
Status = in-progress or due today/tomorrow → feed 📅 Planned for tomorrow as <TICKET>: <task title>
Status = blocked → feed 🚧 Blockers / risks as <TICKET>: blocked — <reason from notes>
Asana tickets in the QVAC project follow the QVAC-\d+ format and slot directly into the bullet shape.
If Asana is unavailable or --no-asana is set, skip this step. The output will rely on GitHub-derived items only.
7. Run a secret-pattern scrub on every assembled string
Before writing /tmp/devops-daily-update-<YYYY-MM-DD>.txt, run a regex check on every PR title, branch name, run name, Asana task title, and any user-provided extras:
If any string matches, redact the matching span ([REDACTED]) and add a chat-only note: "Daily update redacted N suspicious tokens — review the source PRs/runs manually." Never include the raw matched string anywhere in the output, the chat preview, or the temp file.
8. Assemble the output
Build the message in two forms:
Slack form (the canonical, matches the team template), saved to /tmp/devops-daily-update-<YYYY-MM-DD>.txt.
Markdown form (for chat preview only), printed in chat.
Each item from steps 3–6 must be normalized to a TICKET: action bullet. Ticket extraction rules:
Extract QVAC-\d+ (or [A-Z]+-\d+) from the PR title; that's the ticket.
If the PR title has no ticket, extract from the head branch name (e.g., feat/QVAC-12345-thing).
If still no ticket, fall back to #<pr-number> as the leading label.
The action is the PR-title subject (the part after prefix[tags]:), past tense for Done today, action-verb-leading for Planned for tomorrow. Drop the prefix[tags]: from the rendered action.
Sub-bullets are added when (a) the user provided extra context for that item, or (b) more than one PR shares the same ticket — the parent line is the ticket, sub-bullets are each PR.
Empty section → single bullet - N/A (literal). Three sections always rendered, in this order, separated by a single blank line. Bare ticket bullets (- QVAC-13860 with no : and no action) are allowed when the work is self-evident from the ticket title.
(Same content, GitHub-flavored Markdown rendering for the chat preview only.)
Format-conversion cheatsheet
If the user requested --format markdown, save the Markdown form to the temp file too. Conversion rules between the two forms:
Markdown
Slack
**X**
*X*
*X* (italic)
_X_
[text](URL)
<URL|text>
# H1 / ## H2
not used (use Slack-bold instead)
Plain QVAC-\d+
Plain QVAC-\d+ (the workspace's Slack/Asana integration auto-links)
4-space-indented - sub
4-space-indented - sub (Slack respects 4-space indent for sub-bullets)
Do NOT pre-link ticket numbers via <URL|TICKET> — the workspace's Asana app handles auto-linking. Pre-linking conflicts with that and renders awkwardly.
9. Print the result
Print the Markdown form in a fenced code block in chat for the user to scan.
Print the path to the Slack-form temp file with copy commands:
