name: jira-workflow description: Create and manage Jira tickets with Carefeed conventions. Auto-infers project (CORE, INT, PAYM, APP), type (Bug, Task, Story), and priority from description. Use when user mentions creating tickets, filing bugs, or tracking work.

Jira Workflow Skill

This skill handles Jira ticket creation and management using Carefeed team conventions. It automatically infers the appropriate project, issue type, and priority from natural language descriptions.

When to Use This Skill

Automatically trigger this skill when the user:

• Wants to create a ticket: "Create a ticket for...", "File a bug for...", "I need a Jira for..."
• Mentions tracking work: "Track this work", "Add to Jira", "Create an issue"
• Describes a bug or feature: "There's a bug in...", "We need to add..."
• Asks about Jira projects: "Which project should this go in?"

Carefeed Project Structure

Issue Type Inference

Priority Inference

Creating a CORE Ticket

The CORE project requires specific custom fields:

Copy{
  "customfield_10275": [{"value": "Production "}],
  "customfield_10135": {"value": "ALL"}
}

Important notes:

• "Production " has a trailing space (required!)
• Environment is an array of objects
• Component is a single object

Issue Type IDs for CORE

Workflow

Step 1: Analyze Description

Parse the user's description to infer:

• Project (based on domain keywords)
• Issue type (based on action keywords)
• Priority (based on urgency keywords)

Step 2: Confirm with User

Always confirm inferences before creating:

CopyBased on your description, I'll create:
  - Project: INT (integration-related)
  - Type: Bug (fixing a bug)
  - Priority: P1 (urgent)
  - Summary: Fix Yardi integration timeout bug

Does this look correct?

Step 3: Get Project Metadata

Use MCP to get valid issue types and required fields:

Copymcp__jira__jira_get_create_meta({ projectKeyOrId: "CORE" })

Step 4: Create the Ticket

Copymcp__jira__jira_create_issue({
  projectKeyOrId: "CORE",
  issueTypeId: "10015",
  summary: "Your ticket summary",
  description: "Detailed description with markdown support",
  priority: "P2",
  customFields: {
    "customfield_10275": [{"value": "Production "}],
    "customfield_10135": {"value": "ALL"}
  }
})

Step 5: Offer Next Steps

After creation, suggest:

1. Create a branch: feature/CORE-1234-short-description
2. Transition the ticket to "In Progress"
3. Start working on the fix

Complete Workflow Example

User: "Create a ticket for fixing the Yardi integration timeout bug - it's urgent"

Claude:

CopyI'll create a Jira ticket. Based on your description:
  - Project: INT (integration-related)
  - Type: Bug (fixing a bug)
  - Priority: P1 (urgent)
  - Summary: Fix Yardi integration timeout bug

Does this look correct?

User: "Yes"

Claude: [Creates ticket using MCP]

CopyCreated INT-1234: Fix Yardi integration timeout bug
https://carefeed.atlassian.net/browse/INT-1234

Would you like me to:
1. Create a branch: bugfix/INT-1234-yardi-timeout
2. Transition the ticket to 'In Progress'
3. Start working on the fix

Error Handling

Can't infer project

Ask user which project, showing the list of valid projects.

Invalid priority

Map to P2 (default) and notify user.

Required field missing

Prompt for the missing field value.

Permission denied

User may not have create permission in that project.

Helper Functions

Load Carefeed conventions:

Copysource ~/.claude/lib/conventions/carefeed.sh

Available functions:

• infer_jira_project "$description" - Returns project key
• infer_jira_type "$description" - Returns Bug/Task/Story
• infer_jira_priority "$description" - Returns P0-P3

Integration with Git Workflow

After ticket creation, commonly followed by:

1. Generate branch name: {type}/{JIRA-KEY}-{short-description}
2. Create branch: git checkout -b <branch-name>
3. Transition ticket: Move to "In Progress"
4. Commit format: {type}(scope): JIRA-KEY: message

Anti-Patterns

• Don't create tickets without confirming inferences
• Don't guess custom field values - use the documented formats
• Don't skip the project metadata check for unknown projects
