SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you stop wasting time deciding which Jira Epic task to tackle next by finding the unassigned To Do issue with the highest story points per estimated effort, while accounting for unresolved dependencies.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Epic-to-task ranking: Pulls all child issues for a given Epic and computes an ROI score from story points divided by effort mapped from t-shirt size.
  • Dependency-aware eligibility: Filters out tasks that are blocked, considering Jira “Blocks” links and treating only “done”/“In Code Review or later” blockers as resolved.
  • Actionable reporting: Produces a sorted “best ROI” recommendation list plus separate sections for blocked eligible candidates and other non-eligible tasks (assigned or in progress).

Quick Start

Run the best-roi-task skill with your Epic URL or key to get a ranked recommendation of the best unassigned To Do task by ROI.
