Promotion ought to be based on impact, which should be easy to describe and substantiated by colleagues, rather than logging the minutiae like specific PRs.
agree, but having all work done in one place helps to figure out what was the impact, especially if you make good PR descriptions.
But also, it's not about just PRs, more integrations are planned, and combination of sources will help AI to summarize all the aspect of work, including the impact
Nice idea. I have found that the biggest challenge with work logs is consistency — if it takes more than a few seconds, people stop using it. Tools that make logging feel effortless tend to stick.
yes true, I am dog fooding it myself, and honestly MCP helps a lot with consistency. Every time I finish a big feature, I prompt "capture this work" and it makes nice summary, that will be easy to use later.
That makes sense. Having a natural trigger like “capture this work” right after finishing something is probably what keeps the habit alive. Without that moment, most logging systems fade away.
I’ve definitely felt the frustration of collecting evidence for promotion pack. Nice to see a local-first take on this, and the MCP angle is interesting. I’ll give it a try.
