Jira Automation Workflows

# Jira Automation

Comprehensive workflow for automating Jira project management and agile workflows.

## Core Workflows

### 1. Issue Management Pipeline

```

┌─────────────────┐
│    Backlog      │
└────────┬────────┘
         ▼
┌─────────────────┐
│   To Do         │──────┐
└────────┬────────┘      │
         ▼               │
┌─────────────────┐      │ Blocked
│   In Progress   │◄─────┘
└────────┬────────┘
         ▼
┌─────────────────┐
│   In Review     │
└────────┬────────┘
         ▼
┌─────────────────┐
│     Done        │
└─────────────────┘
```

### 2. Automation Rules

```yaml
automation_rules:
  - name: auto_assign_on_transition
    trigger:
      type: issue_transitioned
      to_status: "In Progress"
    condition:
      assignee: unassigned
    action:
      assign_to: trigger_user

  - name: add_label_on_priority
    trigger:
      type: issue_created
      priority: highest
    action:
      - add_label: "urgent"
      - send_slack: "#dev-alerts"

  - name: auto_close_subtasks
    trigger:
      type: issue_transitioned
      to_status: "Done"
      issue_type: Story
    action:
      transition_subtasks: "Done"

  - name: sla_warning
    trigger:
      type: scheduled
      cron: "0 9 * * 1-5"
    condition:
      jql: "status = 'In Progress' AND updated < -3d"
    action:
      - add_comment: "@assignee Please update this issue"
      - send_notification: assignee
```

## Sprint Management

    buffer: 10%  # for unplanned work
    
  ceremonies:
    - name: Sprint Planning
      day: 1
      duration: 2h
    - name: Daily Standup

        count: "auto"
```

## JQL Queries Library

### Common Queries

```jql
# My open issues
assignee = currentUser() AND resolution = Unresolved ORDER BY priority DESC

# Sprint progress
project = DEV AND Sprint = "Sprint 15" ORDER BY status

# Bugs by severity
project = DEV AND type = Bug AND resolution = Unresolved 
ORDER BY priority DESC, created ASC

# Stale issues
project = DEV AND status = "In Progress" AND updated < -7d

# Ready for review
project = DEV AND status = "Code Review" AND "Code Reviewer" is EMPTY

# Release scope
fixVersion = "v2.5.0" AND resolution = Unresolved

# Team velocity
project = DEV AND type = Story AND Sprint in closedSprints() 
AND resolved >= -90d

# Blockers
project = DEV AND (priority = Blocker OR labels = blocked)
AND resolution = Unresolved
```

## Workflow Customization

### Custom Workflow

```yaml
workflow:
  name: Development Workflow
  statuses:
    - Backlog
    - Ready for Dev
    - In Progress
    - Code Review
    - QA
    - Ready for Release
    - Done
    
  transitions:
    - from: Backlog
      to: Ready for Dev
      name: "Refine"
      conditions:
        - story_points_set
        
    - from: Ready for Dev
      to: In Progress
      name: "Start Work"
      post_functions:
        - assign_to_current_user
        
    - from: In Progress
      to: Code Review
      name: "Submit for Review"
      validators:
        - has_linked_pr
        
    - from: Code Review
      to: QA
      name: "Pass Review"
      conditions:
        - all_reviewers_approved
        
    - from: QA
      to: Done
      name: "Pass QA"
      post_functions:
        - resolve_issue
```

## Best Practices

1. **Keep Issues Small**: Break down to complete in 1-2 days
2. **Write Clear Descriptions**: Include all context needed
3. **Link Related Issues**: Use proper issue linking
4. **Update Status Regularly**: Move cards as work progresses
5. **Use Labels Consistently**: Establish team conventions
6. **Estimate in Points**: Use relative sizing
7. **Review Backlog Weekly**: Keep backlog groomed
