Standup Voice

"Alexa, what's my standup?" A voice standup assistant for engineers. Your standup is built from what you actually shipped on GitHub, plus the work you mention out loud during the day.

Built for the Alexa+ track of Build, Ship, Shape: Amazon Developer Hackathon. It is:

• a self-hosted MCP server on Streamable HTTP (TypeScript SDK v2, MCP spec 2026-07-28, which is newer than the required 2025-11-25),

• an Agent Skill (skill/standup/SKILL.md) that teaches any agent when and how to use it,

• a simulated Alexa+ web app: you talk, an agent discovers the tools over MCP and calls them, and the answer is spoken back.

How it works

 you (voice) ──▶ web app ──▶ agent (Claude, or offline intents)
                                 │  MCP over Streamable HTTP

  (merged PRs, commits, closed,   of spoken notes into    (deduped, only
   assigned, review requests)     task/bug/blocker/...    when you say yes)

• Done comes from real activity: merged PRs, closed issues and commits since your last standup, each dated by when it happened.

• Next comes from assigned issues, review requests, and tasks you mentioned ("I need to fix the login redirect").

• Blockers come from what you say ("I'm blocked on the OAuth secret") and from your own PRs waiting on review for over a day.

• Voice-first output: get_standup returns a spoken version (three items per section, about 20 seconds) alongside markdown for the screen.

Quick start

npm install
npm run serve            # http://localhost:8787  ·  MCP at http://127.0.0.1:8787/mcp

Open the page in Chrome or Safari, tap the ring and talk, or use the suggestion chips.

Things to say

Without ANTHROPIC_API_KEY the web page runs offline keyword intents that cover the first four rows. Every row works from an MCP client such as Claude Code.

Use it from any MCP client

claude mcp add --transport http standup http://127.0.0.1:8787/mcp

Tests

npm test         # includes a real MCP client ↔ server round trip over HTTP
npm run typecheck

Also included

src/cli.ts + src/bee.ts form a batch mode that reads conversations from a Bee wearable through @beeai/cli. It was built first, for the Bee track. It is kept because the extraction pipeline is shared (npm run demo runs it on a recorded sample day).

Privacy

The server binds to localhost and checks Host/Origin headers. Notes go only to the model provider you configure, and nowhere at all with the offline extractor. Data lives in data/state.json.
