SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Automates grooming of Jira backlog issues through structured triage and phased waves, reducing manual triage time and improving backlog hygiene.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured triage: classifies findings into reshapes, rewrites, and migrations to guide appropriate actions.
  • Phase-based workflow: defines Phase 0 through Wave 3 steps to coordinate lint checks, baseline snapshots, and batch actions.
  • Documentation-driven: requires user sign-off on triage tables and campaign stop points, preserving an auditable history.
  • Targeted campaigns: designed for audits after rule changes, before planning cycles, or backlog audits with many findings.

Quick Start

Run a grooming campaign against your Jira backlog using the ebjira CLI to baseline, triage, and run wave-based actions.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate Jira backlog grooming for a large audit?

Automate Jira backlog grooming by running structured triage and phased waves to classify findings and coordinate batch actions. This reduces manual triage time during large backlog audits by classifying issues into reshapes, rewrites, and migrations.

What is the best way to triage Jira issues after lint rule changes?

The best way to triage Jira issues after lint rule changes is to use a phase-based workflow that enforces lint scope rules and records outcomes for sign-off. This approach applies structured triage through Phase 0 to Wave 3, coordinating baseline snapshots and batch actions.

Does backlog grooming work for planning cycles and rule changes?

Backlog grooming works for planning cycles and rule changes by applying targeted campaigns with structured triage. It classifies findings into reshapes, rewrites, and migrations, coordinating phased workflows from baseline snapshots through wave-based actions to improve backlog hygiene.

How does the phased wave workflow handle Jira triage sign-off?

The phased wave workflow handles Jira triage sign-off by requiring user confirmation on triage tables and campaign stop points. This documentation-driven approach preserves an auditable history of baseline snapshots and batch actions across Phase 0 through Wave 3.

Can I classify Jira backlog findings into reshapes, rewrites, and migrations?

You can classify Jira backlog findings into reshapes, rewrites, and migrations using structured triage. This classification guides appropriate batch actions within the phased wave workflow, ensuring coordinated campaigns during audits and planning cycles.
