Learn how to have effective conversations with the AI Assistant.

Natural Conversations​

The AI Assistant understands natural language. You don't need special commands or syntax - just write like you're talking to a colleague.

Examples​

"What can you help me with?"A list of available features and capabilities
"Remind me to review the report tomorrow at 9am"Confirmation of scheduled reminder
"What are our current blockers?"List of blocking JIRA issues
"Schedule a message to the team for Friday 5pm"Help setting up the scheduled message

Getting the Best Responses​

Be Specific​

❌ "Help me with the project"
✅ "Show me the in-progress issues for the Orient project"

Provide Context​

❌ "What's the status?"
✅ "What's the status of our current sprint?"

Ask Follow-up Questions​

The AI remembers your conversation context. You can ask follow-up questions:

You: What are our current blockers?
AI: [shows 3 blockers]
You: Tell me more about the first one
AI: [detailed info about PROJ-12345]

Common Use Cases​

Project Management​

  • "Show me current blockers"
  • "What was completed this week?"
  • "Check for SLA breaches"
  • "List in-progress issues"

Scheduling​

  • "Remind me to follow up with Tom tomorrow"
  • "Schedule a standup reminder for weekdays at 9am"
  • "Set up a weekly summary message for Fridays"

Information Lookup​

  • "What's the status of ticket PROJ-12345?"
  • "Who is assigned to the authentication feature?"
  • "Show me this week's velocity"

Quick Help​

  • "What tools do you have?"
  • "How do I schedule a message?"
  • "Help me create a mini-app"

Conversation Tips​

1. One Request at a Time​

For complex tasks, break them down:

✅ Ask about blockers, then ask about in-progress items separately

❌ "Show me blockers and in-progress items and what was completed"

2. Use Specific Names and IDs​

When referring to tickets, use the full ID:

✅ "What's the status of PROJ-12345?"

❌ "What's that ticket about authentication?"

3. Confirm Understanding​

If the AI seems to misunderstand, rephrase or clarify:

You: Schedule a reminder
AI: What would you like to be reminded about?
You: I want a daily standup reminder at 9am on weekdays

Response Types​

The AI can respond with:

  • Text answers - Direct responses to questions
  • Lists - Bullet-pointed information
  • Tables - Structured data (like ticket lists)
  • Confirmations - When actions are completed
  • Questions - When it needs more information

Privacy & Security​

  • Conversations are logged for debugging purposes
  • The AI only accesses tools and data you have permission to use
  • No external data is shared without explicit action
