AI-generated overview

Generates a daily standup update in yesterday/today/blockers format from notes or connected tools.

What it does
Structures recent work activity into a concise standup update with Yesterday, Today, and Blockers sections, optionally adding ticket references. It can work from user-supplied notes or pull recent commits, pull requests, ticket status changes, chat discussions, and CI/CD status when tools are connected. Output is a shareable markdown update that can be reformatted for Slack, email, or a team standup tool.
When to use it
Use it when preparing for a daily standup, summarizing yesterday's commits, PRs, and ticket moves, or turning a few rough notes into a shareable update. It also fits when you need work organized into yesterday/today/blockers sections.
Requirements
No scripts; instructions only. Standalone use needs only the user's notes. Optional connected tools (source control, project tracker, chat, CI/CD) enable automatic activity gathering.

If you see unfamiliar placeholders or need to check which tools are connected, see CONNECTORS.md.

Generate a standup update by pulling together recent activity across your tools.

What I Need From You

Option A: Let me pull it If your tools are connected, just say /standup and I'll gather everything automatically.

Option B: Tell me what you did "Worked on the auth migration, reviewed 3 PRs, got blocked on the API rate limiting issue."

Output

markdown
## Standup — [Date]
### Yesterday- [Completed item with ticket reference if available]- [Completed item]
### Today- [Planned item with ticket reference]- [Planned item]
### Blockers- [Blocker with context and who can help]

If Connectors Available

If ~~source control is connected:

  • Pull recent commits and PRs (opened, reviewed, merged)
  • Summarize code changes at a high level

If ~~project tracker is connected:

  • Pull tickets moved to "in progress" or "done"
  • Show upcoming sprint items

If ~~chat is connected:

  • Scan for relevant discussions and decisions
  • Flag threads needing your response

Tips

  1. Run it every morning — Build a habit and never scramble for standup notes.
  2. Add context — After I generate, add any nuance about blockers or priorities.
  3. Share format — Ask me to format for Slack, email, or your team's standup tool.

Ticket Deflector

anthropics

Featured

Reads a forwarded customer email or ticket, pulls order and refund status from a payments connector (PayPal, Square, or Stripe) or Shopify, account history from the CRM, and open tickets from a support desk (Zoho Desk), drafts a tone-matched reply in the owner's writing voice, and can issue a refund through the payments connector with explicit owner approval. With Shopify connected it also runs a proactive order-triage mode that surfaces orders needing attention — unfulfilled past the promised window, payment problems, pending refunds, stuck shipments — and drafts the next action for each before the customer has to ask. Use when the user says "draft a response," "answer this customer," "where's my order," "I want a refund," "check my orders," or "anything about to blow up."

Tax Season Organizer

anthropics

Featured

Prepares tax-season materials for the owner's accountant, not tax advice. US federal tax; a non-US business gets its closed-books packet instead. Two modes: (1) quarterly estimated tax from YTD net income in the ledger (MYOB, NetSuite, QuickBooks, Xero, or Zoho Books); (2) year-end 1099 prep, scanning the ledger, PayPal, and Stripe for contractors paid over USD 600 into a 1099-NEC list with missing W-9 flags. Any tax request routes first to /tax-prep, which confirms the books are closed and reconciled before running this skill. Use this skill directly only when the owner says the period's books are already closed: "books are closed, now do the 1099s," "run the quarterly estimate off the closed numbers," or "just the contractor W-9 list."

Month End Prep

anthropics

Featured

Reconciles the accounting ledger (MYOB, NetSuite, QuickBooks, Xero, or Zoho Books) against PayPal, Shopify, Square, and Stripe settlements, flags transactions that need attention, suspicious duplicates, and missing receipts, then writes a plain-English P&L narrative and exports a close packet (xlsx + one-page PDF). This is the first link of the /close-month command; a request to close the month or the books routes there, and the command runs this skill before refreshing the forecast and distributing the packet. Use this skill directly only when the owner wants the reconciliation alone, with no forecast refresh and no distribution: "just reconcile, no packet," "what's missing from the books," "flag the duplicates and missing receipts," or "write the P&L narrative for this month."
