2. View Board

   jira board view 123

Sprint Planning Workflow

1. Pre-Planning

Review backlog:

jira issue list --type Story --status "To Do" --plain

Check current sprint:

jira sprint list --state active --plain

2. Sprint Planning

Identify candidate issues for next sprint:

jira issue list --priority High,Medium --status "To Do" --plain

Add issues to sprint:

jira sprint add <SPRINT_ID> PROJ-123 PROJ-124 PROJ-125

Assign issues to team members:

jira issue assign PROJ-123 developer@example.com
jira issue assign PROJ-124 @me

3. During Sprint

Daily standup view:

jira issue list --assignee @me --status "In Progress" --plain

Sprint progress:

jira sprint view <SPRINT_ID> --plain

Move issues through workflow:

jira issue move PROJ-123 "In Progress"
jira issue move PROJ-124 "In Review"
jira issue move PROJ-125 "Done"

4. Sprint Review & Retrospective

Completed issues:

jira issue list --status Done --assignee @me --plain

Incomplete issues (to move to next sprint):

jira issue list --status "In Progress,To Do" --plain

Epic Management

Creating an Epic with Stories

1. Create the epic:

   jira epic create --name "Payment Integration" --summary "Integrate Stripe payment processing"
   

2. Create stories for the epic:

   jira issue create --type Story --summary "Add Stripe SDK" --epic PROJ-100
   jira issue create --type Story --summary "Create payment form" --epic PROJ-100
   jira issue create --type Story --summary "Add webhook handlers" --epic PROJ-100
   

3. Track epic progress:

   jira epic view PROJ-100 --plain
   

Epic Breakdown

When breaking down an epic:

1. Identify all user stories
2. Estimate each story
3. Add dependencies between issues
4. Assign to sprints
5. Track overall progress

Reporting and Metrics

Sprint Metrics

Velocity tracking:

# Get completed story points in sprint
jira sprint view <SPRINT_ID> --raw | grep -o '"storyPoints":[0-9]*'

Issue breakdown by type:

jira issue list --status Done --plain | grep -c "Story"
jira issue list --status Done --plain | grep -c "Bug"

Epic Progress

Issues in epic by status:

jira issue list --jql "epic = PROJ-100" --plain

Completion percentage:

jira issue list --jql "epic = PROJ-100 AND status = Done" --raw
jira issue list --jql "epic = PROJ-100" --raw
# Calculate percentage

Best Practices

Sprint Planning

1. Review previous sprint before planning next one
2. Ensure team capacity matches sprint commitment
3. Break down large stories into smaller tasks
4. Set clear sprint goals and communicate them
5. Add buffer for unexpected issues

Epic Management

1. Keep epics focused - one major feature or initiative
2. Define acceptance criteria upfront
3. Track dependencies between stories in epic
4. Regular progress reviews with stakeholders
5. Update epic status as stories complete

Board Management

1. Keep WIP limits reasonable
2. Regular board cleanup - close completed issues
3. Use labels and components for filtering
4. Monitor blocked issues and resolve impediments
5. Consistent workflow states across team

Common Patterns

Sprint Start

# 1. Review active sprint
jira sprint list --state active --plain

# 2. Create new sprint (if needed)
jira sprint create --board 123 --name "Sprint 42"

# 3. Add prioritized backlog items
jira issue list --status "To Do" --priority High --plain
jira sprint add <SPRINT_ID> PROJ-123 PROJ-124 PROJ-125

# 4. Ensure all items are assigned
jira issue list --assignee EMPTY --plain

Mid-Sprint Check

# 1. View sprint progress
jira sprint view <SPRINT_ID> --plain

# 2. Check blocked items
jira issue list --status Blocked --plain

# 3. Review in-progress work
jira issue list --status "In Progress" --plain

# 4. Identify at-risk items
jira issue list --priority High --status "To Do" --plain

Sprint End

# 1. Identify incomplete items
jira issue list --status "To Do,In Progress" --plain

# 2. Move incomplete items to next sprint
jira sprint add <NEXT_SPRINT_ID> PROJ-125 PROJ-126

# 3. Generate completion report
jira issue list --status Done --plain

# 4. Close sprint (if supported)

Integration Patterns

Git Branch Naming

When creating git branches, include issue keys:

git checkout -b feature/PROJ-123-user-login

Commit Messages

Include issue keys in commits:

git commit -m "PROJ-123: Add user login form"

This enables automatic linking between code and Jira issues.

CI/CD Integration

In deployment pipelines, automatically:

1. Extract issue keys from commits
2. Add deployment comments to issues
3. Transition issues to "Deployed" status

Proactive Behavior

• Suggest sprint planning when approaching sprint end
• Remind about standup updates if in-progress issues haven't been updated
• Flag overloaded sprints when too many issues added
• Suggest epic breakdown when epics get too large
• Recommend retrospectives at sprint completion
• Alert when issues are blocked for too long

Output Interpretation

Sprint View Output

When viewing sprints with --plain:

• Check sprint dates (start/end)
• Review issue count and types
• Monitor completed vs. remaining work
• Identify any blocked issues

Epic View Output

When viewing epics with --plain:

• Track total issues vs. completed
• Check if epic is on track
• Identify dependencies
• Review acceptance criteria status

Always provide context and recommendations based on the data, not just raw output.
