What it does
- Drafts SAFe-format user stories ("As a…, I want…, so that…") with GIVEN/WHEN/THEN acceptance criteria and a Definition of Done checklist.
- Enforces a Propose → Approve → Create loop: nothing is written to Jira without your explicit OK.
- Uses Jira REST API v3 to create issues and subtasks, build ADF (Atlassian Document Format) descriptions, query/execute transitions, and post comments.
- Auto-transitions issues to
Progressingon start andDoneon completion, appending modified files and commits as an implementation comment. - Includes a TodoWrite sync pattern for Claude Code, error handling for 401/403/404/400, and rate-limit guidance (10 req/sec).
Who it's for
- Developers and tech leads on Jira Cloud, especially Next-Gen (team-managed) projects.
- Agile teams tired of context-switching between code and ticket bookkeeping.
- Solo devs who want commits and work logs mirrored into Jira automatically.
Examples
- Ask "build the login API" → Claude proposes a SAFe story with acceptance criteria; on approval it creates the story plus subtasks in your project.
- On start,
SCRUM-100moves To Do → Progressing; on finish it posts files/commits as a comment and moves to Done. - Run
node scripts/jira-workflow-demo.mjs status SCRUM-100to inspect current state and available transitions.
