jira-epic（Jira epic 搜索）

When to Use

Use this skill when creating Jira epics for:

• Large features spanning multiple components
• New views/pages in the application
• Major refactoring initiatives
• Features requiring API + UI + SDK work

Epic Template

- Requirement 2
- Requirement 3

#### {Another Subsection}
- Requirement 1
- Requirement 2

### {Section 2: Another Major Area}

#### {Subsection}
- Requirement 1
- Requirement 2

## Technical Considerations

### Performance
- {Performance requirement 1}
- {Performance requirement 2}

### Data Integration
- {Data source}
- {Integration points}

### UI Components
- {Component 1}
- {Component 2}

## Implementation Checklist

- [ ] {Major deliverable 1}
- [ ] {Major deliverable 2}
- [ ] {Major deliverable 3}

## Diagrams

{Mermaid diagrams for architecture, flow, data model, etc.}

Epic Title Conventions

Format: [EPIC] Feature Name

Examples:

• [EPIC] Findings View
• [EPIC] Multi-tenant Support
• [EPIC] Compliance Dashboard Redesign
• [EPIC] GovCloud Support

Required Sections

1. Feature Overview

Brief but complete description of:

• What the feature does
• Who uses it
• Why it's needed

2. Requirements

Organized by functional area:

• Group related requirements together
• Use clear headers and subheaders
• Be specific and testable

3. Technical Considerations

Always include:

• Performance: Large dataset handling, pagination, caching
• Data Integration: Data sources, APIs, relationships
• UI Components: Reusable components, design system usage

4. Implementation Checklist

High-level deliverables that will become individual tasks:

• Each checkbox = potential Jira task
• Order by dependency (API before UI)
• Include testing milestones

Splitting Epic into Tasks

After creating the epic, generate individual tasks using the jira-task skill:

Task Naming Pattern

From epic [EPIC] Findings View, create:

• [FEATURE] Findings table with pagination (UI)
• [FEATURE] Findings filters - provider and account (UI)
• [FEATURE] Findings detail panel - Overview tab (UI)
• [FEATURE] Findings detail panel - Resources tab (UI)
• [FEATURE] Findings bulk actions - mute/suppress (API + UI)
• [FEATURE] Findings search functionality (API + UI)

Task Dependencies

Always specify in each task:

## Related Tasks
- Epic: [EPIC] Findings View
- Blocked by: [task if any]
- Blocks: [task if any]

Figma Integration

When Figma links are provided:

• Include main Figma link at top
• Reference specific frames in relevant sections
• Example: https://www.figma.com/design/xxx?node-id=1830-44712&m=dev

Output Format

## Epic: [EPIC] {Title}

{Full epic content following template}

---

## Suggested Tasks

Based on this epic, create the following tasks:

| # | Title | Component | Blocked By |
|---|-------|-----------|------------|
| 1 | [FEATURE] Task name | API | - |
| 2 | [FEATURE] Task name | UI | Task 1 |
| 3 | [FEATURE] Task name | UI | Task 2 |

Would you like me to generate the full task descriptions?

Checklist Before Submitting

1. ✅ Title follows [EPIC] Feature Name format
2. ✅ Feature Overview explains what/who/why
3. ✅ Requirements are organized by functional area
4. ✅ Technical Considerations cover performance, data, UI
5. ✅ Implementation Checklist has high-level deliverables
6. ✅ Diagrams included where helpful (Mermaid format)
7. ✅ Figma links included if available
8. ✅ Suggested tasks table provided at the end

Formatting Rules

CRITICAL: All output MUST be in Markdown format, ready to paste into Jira.

• Use # for epic title, ## for main sections, ### for subsections
• Use **bold** for emphasis
• Use - [] for checkboxes in Implementation Checklist
• Use ``` for code blocks and Mermaid diagrams
• Use backticks for file paths, commands, and code references
• Use tables for Suggested Tasks section
• Use --- to separate epic from suggested tasks

Jira MCP Integration

CRITICAL: When creating epics via MCP, use these exact parameters:

Required Fields

{
  "project_key": "PROWLER",
  "summary": "[EPIC] Feature name",
  "issue_type": "Epic",
  "additional_fields": {
    "customfield_10359": {"value": "UI"}
  }
}

Team Field (REQUIRED)

The customfield_10359 (Team) field is REQUIRED. Options:

• "UI" - Frontend epics
• "API" - Backend epics
• "SDK" - Prowler SDK epics

Work Item Description Field

IMPORTANT: The project uses customfield_10363 (Work Item Description) instead of the standard description field for display in the UI.

CRITICAL: Use Jira Wiki markup, NOT Markdown:

• h2. instead of ##
• *text* for bold instead of **text**
• * item for bullets (same)
• ** subitem for nested bullets

After creating the epic, update the description with:

{
  "customfield_10363": "h2. Feature Overview\n\n{overview}\n\nh2. Requirements\n\n*{Section 1}*\n* {requirement 1}\n* {requirement 2}\n\n*{Section 2}*\n* {requirement 1}\n* {requirement 2}\n\nh2. Technical Considerations\n\n*Performance:*\n* {consideration 1}\n\n*Data Integration:*\n* {consideration 2}\n\nh2. Implementation Checklist\n\n* [ ] {deliverable 1}\n* [ ] {deliverable 2}\n* [ ] {deliverable 3}"
}

Linking Tasks to Epic

When creating child tasks, use the epic key as parent:

{
  "additional_fields": {
    "parent": "PROWLER-XXX"
  }
}

Workflow Transitions

Backlog (10037) → To Do (14) → In Progress (11) → Done (21)
                → Blocked (10)

MCP Commands Sequence

1. Create epic:

mcp__mcp-atlassian__jira_create_issue (issue_type: "Epic")

1. Update Work Item Description:

mcp__mcp-atlassian__jira_update_issue with customfield_10363

1. Create child tasks:

mcp__mcp-atlassian__jira_create_issue with parent: EPIC-KEY

1. Assign and transition:

mcp__mcp-atlassian__jira_update_issue (assignee)
mcp__mcp-atlassian__jira_transition_issue (status)
