Linear holds the decisions about your work. Use Yellowhammer to find what happened in each Project, then follow its records into Linear and GitHub.

Read the Night Summary

Start with the verdict, failures, Work Cards, and pull requests recorded for the Night.

Understand the Pulse and Inspector

Find decisions, inspect Attempts, and trace the Night’s recorded events.

Answer questions and unblock work

Reply to questions in the correct thread and fix the cause of blocked work.

Review pull requests and Partial Landings

Check completion evidence, missing work, and the order of stacked pull requests.

​
Start with the Night Summary

  1. Select your Project in the sidebar. In Tonight / last Night, open the verdict link to its Night Card in Linear.
  2. Read the Night Summary, starting with its verdict and any failures. A Night can advance work without opening a pull request.
  3. Open Needs you to inspect Work Cards that are Blocked or Waiting on You. Follow each Card’s link to Linear to answer or re-ready it.
  4. Review every linked repository pull request in GitHub. Check for a Partial Landing or a notice that it is stacked on an earlier Feature.
  5. Revisit Feature for the active Feature and the Features awaiting merge. A Night can land several Features sequentially, so review the entire unmerged stack.
Planned workflow
Morning review path

Show how a reader follows the Night Summary into Linear records and GitHub pull requests.

Planned workflow: read the summary, inspect Work Cards and Partial Landings, answer or unblock work, then make human review decisions.

​
Keep the decision with its record

The Inspector shows the recorded reasons, routes, Attempts, Rounds, and Check results. It does not answer questions or move Cards to Todo. Make those changes on the Linear issue. Merge decisions belong in GitHub. Yellowhammer reads your changes during later Acts. A returned Feature can remain visible until the next author Act reads the board; it does not disappear immediately when you act.
