SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Manually implementing Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) in Jira, including creating Epics, Features, Stories, and Subtasks with correct linking and detailed acceptance criteria, is complex and time-consuming. This skill streamlines the process, ensuring consistency and adherence to SAFe principles, so you can focus on strategic planning.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • SAFe Hierarchy Automation: Create Epics, Features, Stories, and Subtasks with proper parent-child linking, maintaining a clear agile structure.
  • Structured Content Generation: Automatically generate detailed descriptions for Epics (business outcomes, success metrics) and Stories (user story format, acceptance criteria, definition of done) in Atlassian Document Format (ADF).
  • Project Type Awareness: Adapts to both Next-Gen (Team-managed) and Classic (Company-managed) Jira projects for correct field usage, eliminating configuration headaches.
  • Use Case: A product manager needs to define a new strategic initiative. Use this skill to create a SAFe Epic, then automatically break it down into multiple user stories, each with pre-defined acceptance criteria and subtasks, ensuring all work is correctly structured and linked.

Quick Start

Use the jira-safe skill to create a new Epic named "Marketing Copilot MVP" and link three new Stories to it: "User authentication", "Brand profile setup", and "AI chat interface".

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate SAFe hierarchy creation in Jira?

SAFe hierarchy automation creates linked Epics, Features, Stories, and Subtasks with correct parent-child relationships in a single operation. This Skill generates the full structure with properly formatted acceptance criteria and business outcomes, eliminating manual creation and ensuring consistency across your Jira project.

Can I use this with both Next-Gen and Classic Jira projects?

Yes. This Skill detects your project type automatically and adapts linking methods accordingly—using parent keys for Next-Gen (Team-managed) and customfield_10014 for Classic (Company-managed)—so you don't need to reconfigure for different project structures.

How do I break down a feature into user stories with acceptance criteria?

Define your Feature and this Skill automatically generates multiple linked user stories in SAFe format, each with pre-built acceptance criteria and definition of done in Atlassian Document Format. Stories remain properly linked to their parent Feature, maintaining hierarchy.

What project setup do I need before using this Skill?

You need a Jira project (Next-Gen or Classic), valid REST API credentials configured in your environment, and the ability to create Epics, Features, Stories, and Subtasks. The Skill handles field detection and linking configuration automatically based on your project type.

Does this Skill work with my existing Jira Stories and Epics?

This Skill creates new SAFe-aligned items and links them correctly. It's best used for new strategic initiatives where you're building the full hierarchy from scratch, ensuring all items follow SAFe structure and acceptance criteria standards from the start.

Why use SAFe hierarchy instead of flat Jira issues?

SAFe hierarchy aligns work across multiple levels—business outcomes (Epics) through technical tasks (Subtasks)—making it easier to track dependencies, maintain strategic alignment, and communicate progress to stakeholders. This Skill enforces that structure automatically.
