Automatically track your coding activity and generate AI-enhanced daily task reports — right inside VS Code. Stop writing standups manually. Your editor already knows what you did today.
- Automatic activity tracking: Captures file creations, edits, saves, and tab switches silently in the background with intelligent debouncing and deduplication.
- Smart task inference: A built-in rule engine analyzes your activity patterns and infers high-level tasks — API creation, feature development, refactoring, optimization, and more.
- AI-enhanced summaries: Automatically uses GitHub Copilot's language model (if installed) to generate richer task descriptions — no extra setup needed. Falls back to a local Ollama instance if available, or the built-in rule engine.
- JSON reports: Reports are saved to
/reports/YYYY-MM-DD.jsonin your workspace and displayed in the Output panel.
Getting Started
