⚡ standup-cli

Generate your daily standup from git commits — right in your terminal.

Never manually write a standup again. standup-cli scans your git commits from the last 24 hours, asks what you're working on today and if you have blockers, then formats a clean standup message ready to paste anywhere.

What It Includes

• Conventional Commit parsing (feat, fix, docs, etc.) into grouped sections
• Files changed count per repository (last 24h or weekly window)
• Output grouped by repository
• Clipboard auto-copy by default
• .standuprc support for defaults
• Weekly summaries with --weekly

.standuprc

Place .standuprc in the current project or your home directory.

JSON format:

{
  "format": "slack",
  "team": "Platform",
  "copy": true,
  "weekly": false,
  "repos": [".", "../service-api"]
}

Key-value format is also supported:

format=plain
team=Platform
copy=true
weekly=false
repos=.,../service-api

Slack — with bold formatting:

*📋 Yesterday:* Fixed auth bug, updated docs
*🚀 Today:* Stripe integration
*🚧 Blockers:* None

Markdown — for GitHub, Notion, etc:

### Daily Standup

**Yesterday:**
Fixed auth bug, updated docs

**Today:**
Stripe integration

**Blockers:**
None

How it works

1. Runs git log --since="24 hours ago" in your current directory
2. Prompts you for today's focus and any blockers
3. Formats and prints your standup

Use --weekly to scan commits from the last 7 days and label the summary as Last week / Next.

Tip: Run it from your project root for best results. Works with any git repo.

Roadmap (v1 ideas)

• Copy to clipboard automatically
• Support multiple repos
