Blocked issues watch
Surface what is blocked every morning so it gets unblocked.
Paste this into AgentBand
Every weekday at 9:30am, find issues in Linear marked blocked or with a Blocked label for the Product and Engineering teams, and post a list to #standup in Slack with the owner and what they are waiting on.
Blockers hide in the board until someone goes looking. AgentBand finds every blocked issue each morning, notes who owns it and what it is waiting on, and posts the list to your team, so blockers get raised and cleared instead of sitting for days.
How it works
- 1 Find issues marked blocked across your teams
- 2 Note the owner and what each one is waiting on
- 3 Post the list to your standup channel

It uses Linear and Slack. You connect each account once in AgentBand, and the agent acts through them. Your credentials are never exposed to the model.
How often does it run? +
Weekdays at 9:30 AM. You can also run it on demand at any time, or change the schedule by chatting with it.

No. You describe the agent in a sentence, connect the tools it needs, and AgentBand runs it. There is nothing to code or deploy.
