Example Playbook: Weekly Development Digest #

Here’s how you might automate a weekly team development summary:

# Weekly Development Digest
Summarize the week's development activity across all repositories and share with the team.

## Steps

- Collect development metrics from GitHub:
   - Pull requests opened, reviewed, and merged this week
   - New issues created and resolved
   - Commits made across all repositories
   - Any releases or milestones reached

   - **Top Contributors:** Who was most active this week
   - **Major Features:** Significant PRs that were merged
   - **Bug Fixes:** Issues resolved and their impact
   - **Code Review Status:** PRs waiting for review

- Create a summary including:
   - **This Week's Numbers:** PRs, issues, commits by the numbers
   - **Highlights:** Major features shipped or important fixes
   - **In Review:** Critical PRs that need attention
   - **Next Week:** Upcoming releases or important deadlines

- Format for Slack with clear sections and team mentions

- Post to #engineering channel with weekly digest

- Tag relevant team members for PRs needing urgent review

## Trigger
