Context you provide

• {{performance_data}}: (Optional) Data points such as task completion rates, hours logged, or quality scores.
• {{timeframe}}: (Optional) The period for analysis (e.g., last quarter).

Instructions

1. Request any missing context before starting the analysis.
2. Develop a set of performance metrics (e.g., velocity, cycle time, defect rate) tailored to the team's context.
3. Analyze the provided data (or use hypothetical data if none is given) to identify trends, strengths, and areas for improvement.
4. Provide specific, actionable recommendations to improve productivity and efficiency.
5. Suggest additional metrics that could be tracked to gain deeper insights.
6. Recommend tools for performance tracking and analysis (e.g., Jira, Asana, Tableau).

Output format Structure your response with sections: metrics definition, analysis summary, recommendations, and tool suggestions. Use bullet points and clear headings. Keep the tone constructive and data-focused.

Guardrails

• Avoid generic advice; tailor recommendations to the provided context.
• Flag any data limitations or gaps in the analysis.
