Reviewing Suggestions

The hardest part of measuring impact is remembering to log the work in the first place. The Suggestions queue removes that step: once you’ve connected a code repository, VEKTIS watches what you ship and proposes a dev item for the work worth measuring. Your job shrinks from “create a dev item for everything” to “approve or dismiss what’s already been drafted for you.”

You’ll find Suggestions in the main navigation once a repository is connected. If you haven’t connected one yet, see Connecting a repository — the queue stays empty until then.

Each suggestion is a piece of work that shipped, waiting for your call. The header sums it up at a glance — for example “7 waiting · 4 ready to track · 2 older than 2 weeks.”

Every suggestion is sorted into one of two groups:

GroupWhat it meansWhat approving does
Ready to trackVEKTIS already recognizes the code behind this work, so it can start measuring immediately.Approve in one step — no extra input needed.
Needs a few detailsVEKTIS can create the dev item, but needs you to pick a metric and an owner first.Approving opens a short form to fill those in.

Working the Ready to track group first is the fast path — those approvals are a single click and start measuring right away.

A suggestion row shows:

  • The title of the shipped work
  • A typeFeature, Improvement, or Bug fix
  • A “Ready” tag when VEKTIS can measure it immediately
  • A link back to the original change in your repository, so you can check the details
  • Which release it shipped in
  • Its age — how many days it’s been waiting

For each suggestion you have two choices:

  • Approve — turns the suggestion into a tracked dev item. For Ready to track items this is one click and measurement begins; for Needs a few details items you’ll pick a metric and owner first. Either way, the title, type, and source link are filled in for you, and you can edit before saving — it’s a draft, not a commitment.
  • Dismiss — clears work you don’t need to measure so it doesn’t come back.
  • “Connect GitHub to get suggestions here.” — No repository is connected yet. Follow Connecting a repository to start.
  • “You’re all caught up.” — Nothing is waiting. VEKTIS adds a new suggestion whenever a feature, improvement, or bug fix ships to a connected repository, so check back after your next release.
