SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Streamlines the per-ticket gating process for agile-10-implement by validating that a ticket targets the correct repository, then scoring readiness against ACs, DoD, specs, and ADR references to decide if it may enter the build pipeline.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Validates the ticket's target repository against the current repo by inspecting Jira labels, component fields, and ADR mappings.
  • Computes a 0–10 readiness score with explicit inferences when needed, and posts actionable feedback as a phase marker.
  • Handles outcomes: pass, out-of-scope, rejected (needs-info), or critical-park, and transitions ticket status accordingly.

Quick Start

Provide a Jira ticket key and the resolved configuration to the Skill tool to evaluate readiness and determine the next action.

FAQPage Schema
How do I validate Jira ticket readiness before starting implementation?

Validating Jira ticket readiness involves checking the target repository, acceptance criteria, and DoD references to decide if the ticket can enter the build pipeline. The skill automates this by scoring readiness and posting a phase marker to Jira.

What is the best way to automate sprint ticket gating for agile development?

Automating sprint ticket gating requires scoring each ticket against ADR mappings and acceptance criteria. This skill computes a 0–10 readiness score and transitions the ticket status to pass, out-of-scope, rejected, or critical-park accordingly.

How does automated ticket validation handle missing acceptance criteria or DoD references?

Automated ticket validation handles missing acceptance criteria by rejecting the ticket with a needs-info status. The skill posts actionable feedback as a phase marker to Jira, detailing inferences and required updates before the build can proceed.

Can I use Jira labels and component fields to check if a sprint ticket targets the correct repository?

You can use Jira labels and component fields to verify correct repository targeting. The skill inspects these fields alongside ADR mappings to ensure the sprint ticket aligns with the current repo before passing it to the build pipeline.

Why does my Jira ticket get a critical-park status during readiness validation?

A Jira ticket receives a critical-park status during readiness validation when critical requirements or ADR mappings are missing. The skill assigns this outcome to block the ticket from entering the build pipeline until the blockers are resolved.

Does the implement-validate skill require specific dependencies to assess ticket readiness?

The implement-validate skill requires no external dependencies to assess ticket readiness. You provide a Jira ticket key and resolved configuration, and it evaluates readiness against specs and DoD references without additional modules.
