Status Report
When the user asks for a status report or project update:
Step 1: Define report scope
Determine from the user:
- Report type: weekly team update, project status, executive summary, standup summary
- Time period: this week, this sprint, custom range
- Projects/teams: which projects or teams to include
- Audience: team members, management, stakeholders, executives
- Format preference: detailed, summary, or dashboard-style
Step 2: Gather task and project data
Use capability_execute with capabilityId "project.list_tasks" to pull:
- Tasks completed during the reporting period
- Tasks in progress with current status
- New tasks created during the period
- Blocked or at-risk tasks with reasons
- Overdue tasks and their age
- Upcoming deadlines and milestones
- Sprint or iteration progress (velocity, burndown)
Step 3: Calendar and meeting context
Use capability_execute with capabilityId "calendar.read_events" to check:
- Key meetings and decisions made during the period
- Upcoming important meetings or deadlines
- Milestone review dates
- Stakeholder touchpoints
Step 4: Communication and collaboration signals
Use capability_execute with capabilityId "chat.search_messages" to find:
- Important announcements or decisions during the period
- Escalations or urgent issues raised
- Cross-team coordination threads
- Wins and celebrations shared by the team
- Concerns or frustrations expressed
Step 5: Document context
Use capability_execute with capabilityId "docs.search_files" to find:
- Project plans and OKR documents for progress tracking
- Decision logs and meeting notes from the period
- Design docs or specs recently completed or updated
Step 6: Analyze and synthesize
Calculate:
- Completion rate vs plan
- Velocity trend (increasing, stable, declining)
- Blocker resolution time
- Risk trajectory (new risks, resolved risks, escalated risks)
Identify the top 3 highlights and top 3 concerns.
Step 7: Distribute
Use capability_execute with capabilityId "mail.send_followup" to send:
- Status report to stakeholders and team distribution list
Use capability_execute with capabilityId "docs.create_brief" to save:
- Status report document for the record
