> On the team side we’ve largely replaced traditional stand‑ups with AI‑mediated updates

Can you expand on this? What was a traditional stand-up before and what does an AI-mediated one look like?



Our old stand‑up was the classic “what I did yesterday / what I’ll do today / blockers” round‑robin on a call. Now we treat it as an AI‑generated, repo‑driven status report instead of a live status meeting.

Concretely, we: - Break each person’s day into deterministic, measurable tasks with expected time cost and explicit test/code criteria in the repo. - At EOD, run the updated repo through an AI agent that checks for those tests/changes, scores how much of each task was actually completed, and produces a per‑person and team summary that replaces the verbal stand‑up.

Happy to elaborate on this more if you would like.
