Create JIRA Issues from $ARGUMENTS

Analyze the provided file(s) and create a comprehensive JIRA hierarchy with all mandatory quality gates.

Process

Analyze: Read $ARGUMENTS to understand scope
Determine Structure:
- Epic needed if: multiple features, major changes, >3 related files
- Direct tasks if: bug fix, single file, minor change

Create Issues with hierarchy:

Epic → User Story → Tasks (test, implement, document, cleanup)

Mandatory for Every Code Issue

Test-First: Write tests before implementation Quality Gates: All tests/checks must pass, no SonarCloud violations Documentation: Check existing, update/create new, remove obsolete Cleanup: Remove temporary code, scripts, dev configs

Validation Journey

Tickets that change runtime behavior should include a Validation Journey section in the description. This section is consumed by the jira-journey skill to automate verification.

When to Include

Include a Validation Journey when the ticket involves:

API endpoint changes (new, modified, or removed routes)
Database schema changes (migrations, new columns, index changes)
Background job or queue processing changes
Library or utility function changes that affect exports
Security fixes (authentication, authorization, input validation)
Performance-critical changes requiring measurement

When to Skip

Skip the Validation Journey for:

Documentation-only changes
Config-only changes (env vars, CI/CD, feature flags with no code)
Type-definition-only changes (interfaces, types, no runtime effect)

How to Write

Design the journey based on the change type. The agent executing the journey determines how to verify each step using patterns from the project's verfication.md. Place [EVIDENCE: name] markers at key verification points.

Add this section to the ticket description:

h2. Validation Journey

h3. Prerequisites
- Local dev server running
- Database accessible
- Required environment variables set

h3. Steps
1. Verify the current state before changes
2. Apply the change (run migration, deploy, etc.)
3. Verify the expected new state [EVIDENCE: state-after-change]
4. Test error/edge cases [EVIDENCE: error-handling]
5. Verify rollback or cleanup if applicable [EVIDENCE: rollback-check]

h3. Assertions
- Describe what must be true after verification
- Each assertion is verified against the captured evidence

Guidelines

Steps must be concrete and verifiable — "Run curl -s localhost:3000/health" not "Check the API"
Evidence markers at verification points — Place [EVIDENCE: name] at states that prove the change works. Use descriptive kebab-case names (e.g., api-response, schema-check, rate-limit-hit)
Include 2-5 evidence markers — Enough to prove the change works across happy path and error cases
Assertions are testable statements — "Health check returns 200 with status ok" not "API works"
Prerequisites include environment setup — Database connection, env vars, running services

Issue Requirements

Each issue must clearly communicate to:

Coding Assistants: Implementation requirements
Developers: Technical approach
Stakeholders: Business value

Default project: from jira-cli config (override via arguments) Exclude unless requested: migration plans, performance tests

Execute the analysis and create the complete JIRA structure with proper parent-child relationships.
