Multi Project Spec Mapper

Multi-Project Spec Mapper - Intelligent Project Organization

Purpose: Automatically detect multiple projects in SpecWeave setup, analyze user stories to map them to the correct project (FE, BE, MOBILE, INFRA), and organize specs into project-specific folders with proper JIRA/GitHub sync.

When to Use:

• User has multiple JIRA projects configured (e.g., FE, BE, MOBILE)
• User has multiple GitHub repos to sync
• Brownfield projects with multiple teams/services
• Microservices architecture with separate frontend/backend/mobile codebases
• Need to split monolithic spec into project-specific specs

Key Capabilities:

1. ✅ Intelligent Project Detection - Analyze config.json to detect multi-project setup
2. ✅ User Story Classification - Map user stories to projects based on keywords, tech stack, components
3. ✅ Spec Splitting - Split monolithic specs into project-specific files
4. ✅ Folder Organization - Create specs/FE/, specs/BE/, specs/MOBILE/ structure
5. ✅ JIRA Item Type Mapping - Suggest Epic/Story/Task hierarchy based on scope
6. ✅ Bidirectional Sync - Configure hooks for GitHub/JIRA sync per project

How It Works

Step 1: Detect Multi-Project Setup

Check config.json for:

{
  "sync": {
    "profiles": {
      "jira-default": {
        "provider": "jira",
        "config": {
          "domain": "company.atlassian.net",
          "projects": ["FE", "BE", "MOBILE"]  // ← Multiple projects!
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

If multiple projects found → Activate multi-project mode

Step 2: Analyze User Stories

For each user story, analyze:

• Keywords: "UI", "chart", "API", "mobile", "database", "deployment"
• Tech Stack: "React", "Node.js", "React Native", "PostgreSQL", "Kubernetes"
• Components: "component", "service", "screen", "controller", "pipeline"

Example:

US-001: Log a Workout (Web UI)
→ Keywords: "UI", "web", "chart"
→ Tech: "React"
→ Project: FE (90% confidence)

US-002: View Workout History (API)
→ Keywords: "API", "endpoint", "database"
→ Tech: "Node.js", "PostgreSQL"
→ Project: BE (95% confidence)

US-005: Cross-Platform Data Sync (Mobile)
→ Keywords: "mobile", "offline", "sync"
→ Tech: "React Native"
→ Project: MOBILE (100% confidence)

Step 3: Create Project-Specific Specs

Folder Structure:

.specweave/docs/internal/specs/
├── FE/
│   ├── spec-0001-fitness-tracker-web.md
│   └── README.md
├── BE/
│   ├── spec-0001-fitness-tracker-api.md
│   └── README.md
├── MOBILE/
│   ├── spec-0001-fitness-tracker-mobile.md
│   └── README.md
└── SHARED/
    ├── spec-0001-fitness-tracker-shared.md  (cross-cutting concerns)
    └── README.md

spec.md YAML Frontmatter (MANDATORY):

# For 1-level structure (projects only)
---
increment: 0001-fitness-tracker-web
project: FE                      # REQUIRED
title: "Fitness Tracker Web UI"
status: planned
---

# For 2-level structure (projects + boards)
---
increment: 0001-fitness-tracker-web
project: acme-corp               # REQUIRED
board: digital-operations        # REQUIRED for 2-level
title: "Fitness Tracker Web UI"
status: planned
---

Detection: Use detectStructureLevel() from src/utils/structure-level-detector.ts

Each spec contains:

• YAML frontmatter with project: (and board: for 2-level) fields - MANDATORY
• User stories mapped to that project
• Project-specific acceptance criteria
• Links to shared infrastructure/requirements

Step 4: JIRA Sync with Project Mapping

Hierarchical JIRA Structure:

JIRA Project: FE
├── Epic: Fitness Tracker Web UI (SPEC-0001)
│   ├── Story: US-001: Log a Workout
│   │   ├── Task: T-001: Create Workout Form Component
│   │   ├── Task: T-002: Implement Exercise Search
│   │   └── Task: T-003: Add Set Logging UI
│   └── Story: US-004: Track Progress with Charts
│       ├── Task: T-010: Integrate Recharts Library
│       └── Task: T-011: Create Chart Components

JIRA Project: BE
├── Epic: Fitness Tracker API Backend (SPEC-0001)
│   ├── Story: US-002: View Workout History (API)
│   │   ├── Task: T-004: Create GET /api/workouts Endpoint
│   │   ├── Task: T-005: Implement Filtering Logic
│   │   └── Task: T-006: Add Pagination
│   └── Story: US-003: Manage Exercise Library (API)
│       ├── Task: T-007: Create Exercise CRUD Endpoints
│       └── Task: T-008: Implement Search

JIRA Project: MOBILE
├── Epic: Fitness Tracker Mobile App (SPEC-0001)
    └── Story: US-005: Cross-Platform Data Sync
        ├── Task: T-012: Implement Offline Mode (AsyncStorage)
        ├── Task: T-013: Create Sync Queue
        └── Task: T-014: Handle Conflict Resolution

Step 5: Configure Bidirectional Sync

GitHub Hooks (.specweave/config.json):

{
  "hooks": {
    "post_task_completion": {
      "sync_living_docs": true,
      "external_tracker_sync": true
    }
  },
  "sync": {
    "enabled": true,
    "activeProfile": "jira-default",
    "settings": {
      "autoCreateIssue": true,
      "syncDirection": "bidirectional",
      "projectMapping": {
        "FE": {
          "jiraProject": "FE",
          "jiraBoards": [123],
          "githubRepo": "company/frontend-web"
        },
        "BE": {
          "jiraProject": "BE",
          "jiraBoards": [456],
          "githubRepo": "company/backend-api"
        },
        "MOBILE": {
          "jiraProject": "MOBILE",
          "jiraBoards": [789],
          "githubRepo": "company/mobile-app"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
