1.0.29 – Improvements in daily check-in with the addition of lead time metric by item type

Improvements

  • Now, Lead Time and Lead Time In WIP are also calculated considering the types of items on the board (Bug, Story, Feature – according to the types configured on your board);
  • We have also revamped the daily check-in now; it is more focused on the progress or delay of items and also on the quality of the team’s workflow;
  • We have started to record daily artifacts about the team’s flow; these artifacts will be used to improve Kody’s responses (implementation coming soon) and also its understanding of the team’s progress history;
  • And finally, we have updated the section that tracks the team’s ongoing activities. According to the team’s historical Lead Time, this section highlights activities that have already exceeded or are close to exceeding the deadline.

1.0.27 – Improvements in Kody’s ‘intelligence’ and consideration of item types for metrics and automations.

Improvements

  • We added the Bug Ratio to the metrics sent in the channel (/metrics);
  • We created a new data structure to increase our tool’s analysis and response capabilities. For now, we’re only using it to improve the knowledge base, but in the future, we plan to expand this to enhance the responses for all interactions;
  • We launched a feature that allows the user to define which items on the board will be considered in the metrics and the quality analysis of the description. Some clients, for example, do not want this automation to consider bugs.

Bug Fixes

  • We improved the prompt that evaluates the quality of the activity descriptions, making it more stringent;
  • We fixed errors in the flow monitoring sessions and the weekly release.
