Jira Sync

JIRA — Bulk Sync

Goal

Create all epics and stories from the local backlog in JIRA in one operation. Idempotent: skips items that already have a jira_key in the backlog.

Prerequisite Check

Verify integrations.jira in config. If missing: "Run jira-connect first."

Load backlog from {planning_artifacts}/epics-stories/{project_name}-backlog.md.

Step 1: Inventory

Show what will be synced:

Sync Preview:
─────────────────────────────
Epics to create:   {n} (skipping {m} already synced)
Stories to create: {n} (skipping {m} already synced)
─────────────────────────────
This will create {total} JIRA issues.

⏸️ STOP — ask: "Proceed with sync?"

Step 2: Create Epics First

For each epic WITHOUT a jira_key:

1. Create using the same curl command as jira-create-epic
2. Write returned JIRA key back to backlog
3. Show progress: ✅ E-001 → {JIRA-KEY}

Step 3: Create Stories

For each story WITHOUT a jira_key:

1. Identify its parent epic's JIRA key
2. Create story using the same curl command as jira-create-story
3. Link to epic
4. Write returned JIRA key back to story file and backlog
5. Show progress: ✅ S-001 → {JIRA-KEY}

Step 4: Summary

Sync Complete
─────────────────────────────
Epics created:   {n}
Stories created: {n}
Skipped (existing): {n}
Errors: {n}
─────────────────────────────
View board: {jira_url}/projects/{project_key}/boards
