Generate a standup update from recent activity. Use when preparing for daily standup, summarizing yesterday's commits and PRs and ticket moves, formatting work into yesterday/today/blockers, or structuring a few rough notes into a shareable update.

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

## How It Works

```
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│                        STANDUP                                    │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│  STANDALONE (always works)                                       │
│  ✓ Tell me what you worked on and I'll structure it             │
│  ✓ Format for daily standup (yesterday / today / blockers)      │
│  ✓ Keep it concise and action-oriented                          │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│  SUPERCHARGED (when you connect your tools)                      │
│  + Source control: Recent commits and PRs                        │
│  + Project tracker: Ticket status changes                        │
│  + Chat: Relevant discussions and decisions                      │
│  + CI/CD: Build and deploy status                                │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

## 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
