[0056] The processing procedures described below are merely examples, and each process may be modified as much as possible. Furthermore, steps may be omitted, replaced, or added as appropriate depending on the embodiment.

[0057] In the following process, it is assumed that the developer in charge of each task performs development work on the target task. The target task refers to one of multiple tasks included in the target project. The target project refers to the project for which development work is being performed. The developer may, for example, create a branch for the work and perform the work. The work branch is also called the target branch. The target branch refers to the branch of the target task on which the developer performed the work. After performing the work, the developer records the created source code in the repository 23. For example, the developer pushes the source code to the repository 23. The management server 1 executes a pull request from the target branch to the foundation branch at a predetermined timing. The predetermined timing is, for example, after a predetermined period has passed or at a predetermined time. The predetermined timing is, for example, after 24 hours have passed or at 12:00 PM. The predetermined timing can be appropriately set by an administrator, etc. The foundation branch is, for example, the foundation branch of the target task. The foundation branch is the branch into which the target branch is integrated. The foundation branch can be identified by the "branch" included in the task master. The foundation branch refers to the branch where the latest code is located. The target branch contains the changes from the base branch.

[0058] The database server 2 performs data sharing with the management server 1 when a pull request event occurs in the repository 23 (step S1). The pull request event indicates, for example, that a pull request has been made from the target branch to the foundation branch. In step S1, for example, the repository 23 of the database server 2 outputs the target branch name to the management server 1. The target branch name is information that can identify the target branch. The target branch name may be the name of the target branch or the target branch ID. The repository 23 may perform data sharing with the management server 1, for example, using a function such as Webhook.

[0059] The control unit 110 of the management server 1 obtains the target branch name from the database server 2 via the communication interface (I / F) 14. The control unit 110 requests a difference file from the database server 2 (step S101).

[0065] In step S103, for example, the control unit 110 outputs the target branch name to the database server 2 via the communication interface 14. The control unit 110 may also output a command to the database server 2 requesting task information.

[0066] The database server 2 receives the target branch name from the management server 1. The database server 2 returns task information to the management server 1 based on the target branch name (step S3). In step S3, for example, the database server 2 outputs information about the target task, the target task linked to the target project, and information related to the target task to the management server 1.

[0067] The control unit 110 of the management server 1 acquires task information associated with the target task from the database server 2 (step S104). The process of step S104 may be performed by the data processing unit 1101 realized by the control unit 110.

[0068] The control unit 110 of the management server 1 performs a task check process (step S105). The task check process includes a check process to determine whether the task is complete. The check process includes a check process related to the source code. The check process related to the source code includes a check related to the content of the source code. The check related to the content of the source code includes a completeness check to determine whether the task is complete from the content of the source code.

The check related to the content of the source code includes a qualification check to determine whether the source code meets the project specifications, design requirements, etc., and complies with rules or regulations. The completeness check may, for example, determine the completeness of the task based on the results of the accuracy check and the qualification check.

[0069] The processing of step S105 may be processing by the generation processing unit 1102 realized by the control unit 110. In step S105, for example, the control unit 110 generates a command statement related to the task. The command statement related to the task includes a command statement related to the source code. The command statement related to the source code is, for example, a command statement for generating a check result related to the source code. The command statement for generating a check result related to the source code is also called a task compliance check prompt. The check result related to the source code includes a result regarding the completeness of the task. The check result related to the source code may include a result regarding the correctness of the source code. The check result related to the source code may include a result regarding the correctness of the source code.

[0070] The task compliance check prompt is, for example, a command statement indicating that the task should be determined to be complete based on the content of the source code. For example, the task compliance check prompt is, "Please determine whether the task is complete based on the content of the code."

[0071] The task compliance check prompt will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of a statement related to a source code according to the embodiment. Figure 6 shows a task compliance check prompt, which is an example of an instruction statement related to source code. The task compliance check prompt includes the instruction statement, "Please determine whether the following task has been completed based on the content of the code."

[0072] The task compliance check prompt includes information identifying the task, information identifying related materials, and information related to the code. The information identifying the task is, for example, information related to the target task. The information identifying related materials is, for example, information related to the target task. The information related to the code is a differential file. The task compliance check prompt includes information related to the output format of the check result related to the source code. The output format of the check result related to the source code is, for example, a Boolean value, but is not limited to this.

[0073] Returning to the explanation of Figure 5. The control unit 110 inputs the difference file, task information, and command statement to the generative AI system 3 via the communication interface 14. The difference file includes source code. The task information includes information about the target task and information related to the target task. The command statement is a task compliance check prompt.

[0074] The generation AI system 3 receives source code, task information, and command statements from the management server 1. The generation AI system 3 generates check results for the source code based on the source code, task information, and command statements. The check results are an example of a response to the command statements. The generation AI system 3 returns the check results to the management server 1 (step S201). In step S201, for example, the generation AI system 3 outputs the check results to the management server 1 in the output format specified by the task compliance check prompt. The check results are, for example, "True" or "False."

[0075] If the target task includes subtasks, the processes of step S105 and step S201 may be repeated for all the subtasks.

[0076] The control unit 110 of the management server 1 acquires the check results from the generation AI system 3 via the communication interface 14. The control unit 110 creates task status data for the target task based on the check results (step S106). The task status data includes, for example, information indicating the progress of the task. The processing of step S106 may be performed by the generation processing unit 1102 implemented by the control unit 110. In step S106, for example, the control unit 110 creates task status data for the target task based on information indicating the check results, task content, and the end date of the task. The control unit 110, for example, refers to the task master and acquires information indicating the man-hours for the target task. The man-hours for the target task may include the man-hours for subtasks included in the target task. The control unit 110, for example, refers to the task master and acquires information indicating the end date of the target task. The control unit 110 creates the task status data based on the check results, the man-hours for the target task, and the end date of the target task.

[0077] The task status data will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of task status data according to the embodiment. The task status data has, for example, the data structure shown in FIG. 7. The task status data includes the start date, end date, today's date, progress status, and man-hours of the target task. The progress status includes, for example, information such as "X person-days behind," "on schedule," and "Y person-days ahead of schedule." Note that the data structure of the task status data is not limited to the data structure shown in FIG. 7. The task status data may include data related to the progress status of the target task.

[0078] Returning to the explanation of Figure 5. The control unit 110 creates a notification indicating the progress of the target task based on the task status data. The notification indicating the progress of the target task may include, for example, the start date, end date, progress status, and man-hours of the target task. The progress status includes, for example, information such as "X person-days behind," "on schedule," and "Y person-days ahead of schedule."

[0079] According to this example, the management server 1 inputs task-related commands, source code, and task information into the generation AI system 3, and can obtain check results generated by the generation AI system 3. The generation AI system 3 checks the content of the source code based on information about the task and information about documents related to the project, determines whether the task is complete, whether the source code contains errors, and generates check results. Therefore, the management server 1 can obtain from the generation AI system 3 the results of checking the accuracy and appropriateness of the source code content based on information about the task and information about documents related to the project. The management server 1 can obtain the progress status of the task determined based on the content of the source code. This allows the management server 1 to manage the progress status of the task with high accuracy.

[0080] The control unit 110 of the management server 1 performs progress report processing (step S107). The progress report processing includes processing for generating a progress report for the task. The progress report processing includes processing for generating a progress status of the task. The progress report processing includes processing for generating comments regarding the progress of the task. The processing of step S107 may be processing by the generation processing unit 1102 realized by the control unit 110. In step S107, for example, the control unit 110 generates a command statement related to the task. The command statement related to the task is, for example, a command statement for generating a progress report for the task. The command statement for generating a progress report for the task is also called a progress report prompt.

[0081] A progress report prompt is, for example, a command statement indicating that a progress report for a task should be generated. A progress report prompt may include, for example, a command statement indicating that a comment regarding the progress of a task should be generated. Examples of progress report prompts include, "Please provide a progress report based on the task results," "If there are any issues, please include them in the report," etc.

[0082] The progress report prompt is described with reference to FIG. FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating an example of a command statement regarding a progress report according to the embodiment. Figure 8 shows a progress report prompt, which is an example of an instruction for a progress report. The progress report includes the instruction "Please submit a progress report based on the results of the following tasks. If you have any problems, please include them in the report."

[0083] The progress report prompt includes information identifying the task, information identifying related materials, task status data, and information related to the code. The information identifying related materials is an example of task-related information. The progress report prompt may also include information related to the output format of the progress report.

[0084] Returning to the explanation of Figure 5. The control unit 110 inputs the difference file, task information, task status data, and command statements to the generative AI system 3 via the communication interface 14. The difference file includes source code. The task information includes information about the target task and information related to the target task. The command statements are progress report prompts.

[0085] The generation AI system 3 receives source code, task information, task status data, and command statements from the management server 1. The generation AI system 3 generates a progress report based on the source code, task information, task status data, and command statements. The progress report is an example of a response to a command statement. The generation AI system 3 returns the progress report to the management server 1 (step S202). In step S202, for example, the generation AI system 3 outputs the progress report to the management server 1 in an output format specified by the progress report prompt. The progress report may include, for example, progress status, problems with the task deliverable, and remedial measures in case of problems. The progress status is, for example, information about the schedule, such as "X person-days behind," "on schedule," or "Y person-days ahead." The problem with the task deliverable is, for example, a problem with the source code. The remedial measures in case of problems are, for example, changing the person in charge. The progress report can be changed in response to the progress report prompt.

[0086] The control unit 110 of the management server 1 acquires the progress report from the generation AI system 3 via the communication interface 14.

[0087] According to this example, the management server 1 inputs task-related commands, differential files, task information, and task status data into the generation AI system 3, and can obtain a progress report generated by the generation AI system 3. The generation AI system 3 determines the progress of the task based on information about the task, information about documents related to the project, and task status data, and generates a progress report. If there is a problem with the source code, the generation AI system 3 generates a comment indicating the problem. If there is a problem with the source code, the generation AI system 3 may generate a comment indicating a solution to the problem. If there is no problem with the source code, the generation AI system 3 may generate a comment indicating that there is no problem. If there are improvements or suggestions for the source code, the generation AI system 3 generates a comment indicating the improvements or suggestions. If a person in charge has questions about the source code, the generation AI system 3 generates an answer. Therefore, the management server 1 can obtain comments regarding the task progress in addition to the progress of the task. For example, the management server 1 can respond to inquiries about the source code from a person in charge. In this way, the management server 1 can evaluate the content of the target task. This allows the management server 1 to manage the progress of tasks with high accuracy.

[0088] The control unit 110 updates the task information based on the task status data (step S108). The processing of step S108 may be processing by the data processing unit 1101 realized by the control unit 110. In step S108, for example, the control unit 110 outputs the task status data to the database server 2 via the communication interface 14. The database server 2 updates the progress management information based on the task status data. For example, the database server 2 updates the progress information in the WBS master. If all target tasks have been completed, the database server 2 updates the status of the task master.

[0089] The control unit 110 records a comment regarding the progress of the task based on the progress report (step S109). The processing of step S109 may be processing by the data processing unit 1101 realized by the control unit 110. In step S109, for example, the control unit 110 outputs the progress report to the database server 2 via the communication interface 14. The database server 2 updates the coordinator information based on the progress report. For example, the database server 2 records a comment regarding the progress of the task in the individual comment master.

[0090] The control unit 110 notifies the result (step S110). The processing of step S110 may be processing by the notification processing unit 1103 realized by the control unit 110. In step S110, for example, the control unit 110 outputs a notification to the notification system 4 via the communication interface 14. The notification includes a notification indicating the progress status of the target task. The notification includes a notification based on a progress report. The notification based on a progress report is an example of a notification based on a response. The notification based on a progress report includes, for example, a comment on the progress of the task. The notification based on the progress report may include the progress status of the task. The notification system 4 may output the notification to a user terminal used by the person in charge. The notification system 4 may output the notification to an administrator terminal. The notification system 4 may output the notification by, for example, a communication means using an app or a communication means using a web browser.

[0091] The control unit 110 may output the task status data and the progress report to the notification system 4 via the communication interface 14. In this case, the notification system 4 may create a notification based on the task status data and the progress report.

[0092] According to this example, the management server 1 can provide a notification indicating the progress of a task determined based on the contents of the source code. The management server 1 can also provide a notification indicating comments regarding the progress of the task. The person in charge or the manager can receive a notification indicating the progress of the task with high accuracy. The person in charge or the manager can receive a notification indicating problems or suggestions regarding the source code. Therefore, the person in charge or the manager can perform highly accurate progress management based on the notification. The person in charge or the manager can also improve or correct the source code based on comments regarding the progress of the task. In this way, the management server 1 can evaluate the contents of the target task. This allows the management server 1 to perform more accurate task progress management.

[0093] (effect) The information processing device according to the embodiment can acquire task data stored in a storage unit, acquire task information associated with the task, generate a command statement related to the task, input the task data, task information, and command statement into a generative model, acquire a response to the command statement from the generative model, and output a notification based on the acquired response. For example, the management server 1 can acquire check results for a task generated based on source code and task information. The management server 1 can acquire a response regarding the progress of the task based on the content of the source code generated by the generation AI system 3. Therefore, the management server 1 can perform highly accurate task progress management based on the check of the content of the source code.

[0094] The information processing device of the embodiment inputs a command statement for generating check results related to task data into the generative model. Therefore, the management server 1 can obtain a response related to the progress of the task based on, for example, the accuracy or suitability of the source code generated by the generative AI system 3. Therefore, the management server 1 can perform highly accurate task progress management based on the check of the content of the source code.

[0095] The information processing device of the embodiment inputs a command statement for generating a task progress report into the generative model. As a result, the management server 1 can acquire the task progress status and comments related to the task progress generated by the generation AI system 3. As a result, the management server 1 can provide a highly accurate task progress report including comments related to the task progress.

[0096] The information processing device of the embodiment can input information about tasks, indicating the man-hours required for each task, to the generation AI system 3. Therefore, the management server 1 can obtain a response regarding the progress of the tasks generated based on the man-hours required for the tasks. Therefore, the management server 1 can perform highly accurate task progress management based on the man-hours required for the tasks.

[0097] The information processing device of the embodiment can input task-related information, including task specifications, to the generation AI system 3. Therefore, the management server 1 can obtain a response regarding a check on the accuracy or suitability of a task generated based on the task specifications, etc. Therefore, the management server 1 can perform highly accurate task progress management based on task-related information, such as the task specifications.

[0098] The information processing device of the embodiment can create a notification indicating the progress of a task based on the check results for task data and output the notification indicating the progress of the task. Therefore, the management server 1 can create a notification indicating the progress of a task with high accuracy based on, for example, the check results for source code generated by the generation AI system 3. For example, the management server 1 can output the notification indicating the progress to the notification system 4 and notify a person in charge or an administrator based on various notification means. The person in charge or an administrator can receive the notification indicating the progress of the task with high accuracy.

[0099] The information processing device according to the embodiment can output a notification based on a task progress report. For example, the management server 1 can output a notification based on a progress report including the progress status of the task and comments on the task progress to the notification system 4. This allows the management server 1 to provide a progress report including comments specific to each task. In this way, the management server 1 can perform highly accurate task progress management.

[0100] When a problem is found with task data, the information processing device according to the embodiment can acquire a progress report that includes a comment on the progress of the task, indicating a solution to the problem. For example, the management server 1 can acquire a comment indicating a problem with the source code generated by the generation AI system 3, or a comment indicating an improvement or suggestion for the source code. Therefore, the management server 1 can create a notification indicating a comment indicating a problem with the source code, or a comment indicating an improvement or suggestion for the source code. This allows the management server 1 to provide a progress report that includes a comment specific to each task. In this way, the management server 1 can perform highly accurate task progress management.
