Your daily developer standup - powered by Git history

gitbriefly 🧠

Your daily developer standup — powered by your Git history.

⚡ The Problem

Every day at standup:

“What did I actually do yesterday?”

You open Git, scroll commits, and still feel unsure.

---

⚡ Quick Demo

$ pip install gitbriefly
$ gitbriefly standup
**Yesterday:**
- Enhanced AI output quality
- Added deduplication and truncation

**Today:**
- Continue development

**Blockers:**
- None

Your standup ready in seconds.

🧠 Why this exists

Developers forget context. Git stores history but not understanding.

gitbriefly turns commits into insights.

"I built this because I kept forgetting what I worked on the day before. Now I just run gitbriefly and know exactly what to continue working on."
