Prepare the standup focus from current state
Reads the current workplan state and open blockers/handoffs list and forms a short view of what the standup must actually cover today — whose update matters, which risk to chase, which handoff to confirm.
In / outCurrent workplan state + open blockers and handoffs list → Focused standup agenda (whose update matters today, risks to chase, handoffs to confirm)
You might say…
“The standup is in ten minutes and I don't want it to be a flat round-robin — I need a quick read of what's actually shifted so I can steer the conversation to where it matters.”
What it does
Reads the current workplan state and the open blockers/handoffs list and forms a short view of what the standup must actually cover today — whose update matters, which risk to chase, which handoff to confirm — so the synchronous time goes to what has shifted rather than a flat round-robin. Used in the minutes before the check-in. Single human-in-loop judgement over the tracker state.
Trigger: Use in the minutes before each standup to focus synchronous time on what has changed rather than what is routine.
