Troubleshooting
No Activity Found
Symptom: Standup shows no completed work
Possible causes:
- No tasks were updated yesterday
- Tasks are in a different workspace
- Date filter is too narrow
Fix: Try "last 2 days" instead of "yesterday", or check different projects
Too Much Information
Symptom: Standup is too long or detailed
Possible causes:
- Many tasks were updated
- AI included too much detail
Fix: Ask for summary: "Generate a brief standup, keep it to top 3 items per section"
