Before you start

  • A workspace with a Maxima; any member can chat with it
  • Access to the project, documents and channels you want reviewed: Maxima only reads what you can read

Steps

  1. Ask what's in progress

    Open AI Workers, type in Message Maxima and press Enter, for example “Which Lumen App issues are in progress, and who has them?” Maxima answers with a table that links each issue.

  2. Ask what's blocked or left

    Follow up in the same chat, which keeps its context: “What is left before we can close LUM-7?” or “Which of these are blocked?” Naming the issue makes it faster to find.

  3. Summarise documents and channels

    Ask for the short version of what changed, for example “Summarise the Lumen 1.0 product brief in five bullet points” or “What did the team decide about the Pro trial in #product?”

  4. Post the summary to the team

    Ask Maxima to post it, for example “Post this summary in #product”, and reply Yes if it asks you to confirm. To discuss it further, @mention Maxima in the channel and it answers in a thread.

  5. Add to-dos for the follow-ups

    Ask Maxima to add to-dos, for example “Add a to-do for Daniel to unblock LUM-16 by Friday.” They show up as action items in the person's Planner.

Try it in your workspace.

Or ask Maxima to do it with you.
