Workflow
1. Load Persona
persona_load(persona="developer")
2. Known Issues
check_known_issues(tool_name="jira", error_text="")check_known_issues(tool_name="clone", error_text="")
3. Get Source Issue
jira_view_issue(issue_key=issue_key)— Fetch source details- Parse: extract summary, type; verify exists (len > 50)
4. Clone Issue
jira_clone_issue(issue_key=issue_key, summary=new_summary or "Clone: " + source_summary)- Parse result: extract new_key (AAP-XXXXX pattern)
5. Link & Assign
jira_add_link(from_issue=new_key, to_issue=issue_key, link_type=link_type)— Link clone to original- If assign_to_me:
jira_assign(issue_key=new_key)
6. Run Hygiene on Clone
skill_run(skill_name="jira_hygiene", inputs='{"issue_key": "' + new_key + '", "auto_fix": true, "auto_transition": false}')
7. Memory
memory_session_log(action="Cloned {issue_key} to {new_key}")memory_append(key="state/current_work", list_path="active_issues", item={key: new_key, status: New, cloned_from: issue_key})
8. Learning from Failures
- If "issue does not exist":
learn_tool_fix("jira_view_issue", "issue does not exist", "Jira key incorrect or deleted", "Verify format AAP-12345") - If "unauthorized":
learn_tool_fix("jira_clone_issue", "unauthorized", "Jira auth failed", "Check Jira credentials")
