01 / The starting point

A clear request.
A useful direction.

An update recorded in a software project selected by the team

“Make selected project activity available to the responsible team with the affected project and available event details for review.”
An example request · Make it specific to your team.

02 / The work

5 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Helps a development team notice activity in selected software projects and decide what deserves follow-up.

  1. Choose the project activity to follow

    Identify the selected projects and the kinds of updates the team wants to review.

  2. Keep each update tied to its project

    Show the available project and event context so a teammate can locate the original activity.

  3. Review the original project record

    Have a team member confirm what changed and whether the update has any significance.

  4. Route follow-up to a responsible owner

    Bring unclear or consequential activity to the developer or project owner best placed to assess it.

  5. Approve outside action separately

    Require a person to review and approve any external message, project change, or release action prompted by an update.

03 / The result

Something useful.
Something to build on.

A reviewable internal update tied to its project, with any response or outside change left for a responsible person to approve.

The handoff

A reviewable internal update tied to its project, with any response or outside change left for a responsible person to approve.

Keep in mind

An activity update may not show its full context or confirm that a change is correct. Review the original project record before changing work, notifying people outside the team, or making a release decision.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Select projects and update scope

Choose which projects and activity types belong in the team’s review process.

Choose a restricted review destination

Share project context only in a team location available to people authorized to see it.

Assign reviewers and project owners

Name who checks an update and who decides whether a follow-up is appropriate.

Test representative updates

Confirm that a routine update, an unclear event, and a consequential change are visible with enough context for human review.
