Many programmers (and others) have come across agile development at least once. One important component of agile development methods is daily meetings - stand-ups - where team members talk about the work done and planned for that day in a short time. Most of these meetings have a leader who determines the sequence and also keeps track of the time. But not every team has a person willing to take on this role.
So why not automate this process? The idea is simple: write something that can poll each person about the workday. It is desirable that this something has a voice. My choice fell on Alice, because with the help of the station in the meeting room it is quite possible to hold a stand-up.
So I wrote the skill "Run a stand-up".
About the skill
Capabilities
Adding / removing people from the team. What's a stand-up without a team? In order for the skill to know about the composition of your team, there are phrases: “Add the NAME [SURNAME] to the team”, “Remove the NAME [SURNAME] from the team” and an additional phrase “Add the person NAME [SURNAME] to the team”. Why one more phrase is needed will be described in the section on intents. It is enough to do it once - the information about the team will be saved.
Actually, holding a stand-up. Once you have added your entire team, you can start stand-up by saying “start stand-up”. The skill will take turns asking everyone to speak and talk about their day. After the skill hears the phrase “I'm done / finished / finished”, it will call the next participant. You can also skip the participant by reporting “he / she is not present” or “he / she is absent”.
If you do not want the content of your stand-up to go somewhere unknown to someone on the server, then the skill offers the ability to play a “sound of silence” during your story. During playback, Alice does not receive cues, so you can report your work without worrying that someone else will hear you.

Alice copes with the execution of such a simple task as calling the participants, the voice interface fits well into stand-ups.
