Example 1: Basic Daily Standup

Scenario: You want a quick summary of what you worked on today for your daily standup meeting.

The Problem

You've been working across multiple projects, using different editors, making git commits, and interacting with AI coding assistants. You need a concise summary of your activity without manually reviewing everything.

The Solution

WorkLog automatically aggregates activity from all configured sources and organizes it by project.

Commands

Today's Activity (Default)

worklog

Output:

# Daily Standup - January 15, 2026

**worklog**: Update README examples; Add productivity analysis feature

**api-server**: Fix authentication bug; Add rate limiting middleware

**frontend-app**: Implement dark mode toggle; Update dashboard theme

Yesterday's Activity

worklog -y

This Week's Activity

worklog -w

Last Week's Activity

worklog -lw

What Happens Behind the Scenes

  1. WorkLog reads from all configured data sources (git, GitHub, VS Code, Cursor, AI agents, etc.)
  2. Filters out noise (like auto-saves, trivial commits)
  3. Groups activities by repository/project
  4. Generates a concise summary organized by project

Tips

  • Run worklog first thing in the morning to see what you accomplished yesterday
  • Use worklog -w on Fridays to prepare your weekly summary
  • The output is automatically saved to history for later searching
