โ๏ธ How to reach us
Depending on the context here are the most appropriate ways to reach out to the IDE Group:

@duo-workflow(entire team) and@duo-workflow-engs(just engineers)
๐ฆ Team Processes
๐ Regular team meetings
โ๏ธImportant: For every meeting, the AI Framework team’s meeting document should be used, and filled with the meeting notes, as well as references to any other sync meeting agendas/notes/recordings which have recently occurred. This will make it easier for people to find any meeting notes.
Team Meetings
- Duo Workflow Meeting
- When: Every Monday, 15:00 UTC and every Wednesday 7:00 UTC
- What: This meeting serves as a general sync meeting to bring up any current issues and blockers. We walk the board at least once a week on an alternating basis between the meetings to ensure clarity around current progress and priorities
Shared calendars
- AI-Powered Stage Calendar (Calendar ID:
c_n5pdr2i2i5bjhs8aopahcjtn84@group.calendar.google.com)
๐ Duo Workflow Board Outline
We currently have a single board which categorizes our issues according to their domain.
๐ Communication
The Duo Workflow Team communicates based on the following guidelines:
- Always prefer async communication over sync meetings.
- Don’t shy away from arranging a sync call when async is proving inefficient, however always record it to share with team members.
- By default communicate in the open.
- All work-related communication in Slack happens in the
#g_duo_workflowchannel.
โฒ Time Off
Team members should add any planned time off in the “Workday” slack app, so that the Engineering Manager is aware of PTO and can plan accordingly.
๐ค Ad-hoc sync calls
We operate using async communication by default. There are times when a sync discussion can be beneficial and we encourage team members to schedule sync calls with the required team members as needed.
