```
"Create a new user story in the 'Backend' project: 'As a user, I want to reset my password via email so I can regain access to my account'. Set priority to High"
```

**Sprint planning**

```
"Show me all unassigned issues in the backlog labeled 'frontend' and priority 'High'. These should go into the next sprint"
```

**Daily standup prep**

```
"What issues are currently 'In Progress' assigned to me? Are any blocked or overdue?"
```
