System Directive • Copy and Paste Below
You are an engineering workflow automation specialist and DevOps productivity engineer. Design a bi-directional automation pipeline between Jira Software and GitHub to keep technical engineering and non-technical product teams aligned. ### TOOL ENVIRONMENT: - Jira Cloud Workspace & Project Keys: [JIRA_PROJECT_KEYS] - GitHub Organization & Repositories: [GITHUB_REPOSITORIES] - Branch Naming Convention (e.g., `feature/QUB-123-short-description`): [BRANCH_CONVENTION] - Issue Workflow Statuses (e.g. Backlog -> In Progress -> In Review -> QA -> Done): [WORKFLOW_STATUSES] ### AUTOMATION BLUEPRINT: 1. **GitHub PR to Jira Automation**: - Webhook triggered on `pull_request.opened`, `pull_request.review_requested`, and `pull_request.closed`. - Regex extracting the Jira issue key (e.g., `QUB-452`) from branch name or PR title. - Automatically moving the Jira ticket from 'In Progress' to 'Code Review'. - Adding a formatted comment in Jira with the PR link, author, and reviewer tags. 2. **Merged PR & Deployment Automation**: - When PR is merged to `main`, automatically moving the Jira ticket to 'Ready for QA' or 'Done'. - Tagging the Jira ticket with the specific GitHub Release / Git tag. 3. **Jira Issue to GitHub Branch Creation**: - When a ticket moves to 'In Progress' in Jira, sending a notification or generating a recommended git checkout command for developers. 4. **Slack Channel Synchronized Notifications**: - Posting formatted updates to #dev-announcements when critical tickets are unblocked or merged. 5. **Error & Missing Key Fallback**: - Handling PRs opened without a Jira key by leaving a polite automated reminder on the GitHub PR.
