## Purpose

Turn raw, informal development notes (a scratch list of what got done, blockers, half-finished thoughts) into a clear, professional status update suitable for sharing with a team or stakeholder.

## When to Use

- Writing a daily/weekly status update from rough notes.
- Converting a stream-of-consciousness list of "did X, working on Y, blocked on Z" into something shareable.
- Standardizing status update format across a team.

## What to Analyze / Do

1. **Separate signal from noise** — not every micro-task belongs in a status update; group related work into meaningful lines (5 small bug fixes on the same feature become one line, not five).
2. **Organize into clear sections** — typically: Done (this period) / In Progress / Blocked / Next. Adapt if the team has an existing format.
