Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated Jira Issue Creation: Generates an Epic for NFR compliance and individual Stories for each applicable NFR.
  • Data-Driven: Leverages YAML files (nfr-reference.yaml, nfr-evidence-rules.yaml) as the single source of truth for NFRs.
  • Use Case: When a new system is defined, use this Skill to automatically create a Jira Epic and associated Stories for all relevant NFRs, ensuring compliance is built into the development process.

Quick Start

Create a Jira Epic and associated stories for NFR compliance for the ERPSystem, CS1 tier, covering all NFR types, in the ARCH project.

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I create Jira stories for Non-Functional Requirements automatically?

You can automate Jira issue creation by parsing NFR data from YAML files to generate a parent Epic and individual linked stories for each applicable Non-Functional Requirement. This converts abstract compliance needs into concrete development tasks for sprint planning.

How do I turn NFR compliance tracking into actionable sprint tasks?

Turn NFR compliance tracking into actionable sprint tasks by generating a Jira Epic with associated stories based on system, tier, and type. It uses YAML reference files as the source of truth to structure abstract requirements into trackable work.

Can I use YAML files to generate Jira epics and stories for NFRs?

Yes, you can use YAML files like nfr-reference.yaml and nfr-evidence-rules.yaml as the single source of truth. The Skill parses this NFR data and utilizes Atlassian MCP tools to generate the Jira Epic and link associated stories automatically.

Does this NFR Jira epic generation require specific system and tier inputs?

Yes, NFR Jira epic generation requires specific system, tier, and type inputs to filter applicable Non-Functional Requirements. Providing these parameters ensures the created stories accurately reflect the compliance needs for your defined system.

What is the best way to structure non-functional requirements for sprint planning in Jira?

The best way to structure non-functional requirements for sprint planning is creating a parent Jira Epic with individual stories for each applicable NFR. This transforms compliance tracking into actionable development tasks linked directly to sprint workflows.

Why are my NFR compliance tasks not showing up as linked Jira stories?

NFR compliance tasks may not appear as linked Jira stories if the YAML data is improperly formatted or the Atlassian MCP tools fail to link them to the parent Epic. Ensure your system, tier, and type parameters match the YAML reference files.
