SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Engineering managers and tech leads need a fast, visual readout of sprint health instead of digging through flat Jira reports. This Skill turns Jira scope data into a focused dashboard showing progress, risks, owner load, and attention items.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Multi-Renderer Output: Renders the same dashboard model as Cursor Canvas, an interactive artifact, static HTML, Markdown, or JSON depending on the environment.
  • Derived Sprint Signals: Computes done, active, stale, blocked, unassigned, and high-priority work items from a single paginated JQL scope query.
  • Evidence-Backed Reporting: Includes a source appendix with exact JQL, field coverage, and assumptions so every claim is traceable.
  • Use Case: Ask for a standup dashboard for your team's open sprint and get a four-stat summary, owner load breakdown, risk list, and top-priority work item table without any Jira write operations.

Quick Start

Create a sprint dashboard for Jira project ENG showing the current open sprint with risks and owner load.

Frequently Asked Questions about jira-sprint-dashboard

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a Jira sprint dashboard from a project key?

Provide a Jira project or space key and the Skill queries open sprints with JQL like project = "KEY" AND sprint in openSprints(). If no open sprint exists, it falls back to a snapshot of unfinished or recently updated work items.

What Jira data does the sprint dashboard show?

The dashboard shows four top stats (scope, done, active, needs attention), owner load, risk items, highest-priority work items, and recently completed work. All signals derive from fields like status, assignee, priority, updated, and resolutiondate.

Does the Jira dashboard skill modify or update Jira issues?

No, the Skill is read-only by default and only uses Jira search queries. It never creates, updates, transitions, assigns, or comments on work items unless you explicitly request a write action after reviewing the dashboard.

Can I render the Jira dashboard without Cursor Canvas?

Yes, the Skill falls back through interactive artifacts, static HTML, Markdown, and structured JSON depending on environment support. The dashboard content and counts stay identical across all renderers.

Why does the dashboard show a scope caveat instead of sprint data?

A caveat appears when sprint data is missing, stale, or mixed with recent project movement, such as when no open sprint exists. The Skill then uses a 60-day recent activity window and labels the mode honestly.
