JIRA Validation Journey

Parse a JIRA ticket's Validation Journey, execute the verification steps using the project's appropriate tools, capture evidence at each marker, and post to JIRA + GitHub PR.

Arguments

$ARGUMENTS: <TICKET_ID> [PR_NUMBER]

• TICKET_ID (required): JIRA ticket key (e.g., PROJ-123)
• PR_NUMBER (optional): GitHub PR number to update description

Prerequisites

• JIRA_API_TOKEN environment variable set
• jira-cli configured (~/.config/.jira/.config.yml)
• gh CLI authenticated

Workflow

Step 1: Parse the Validation Journey

Run the parser script to extract the Validation Journey from the JIRA ticket description:

python3 .claude/skills/jira-journey/scripts/parse-plan.py <TICKET_ID>

The script outputs JSON with: ticket, prerequisites, steps, viewports, assertions.

Step 2: Satisfy Prerequisites

Before starting the journey, verify each prerequisite listed in the parsed output.

Step 3: Execute Steps

Execute each step sequentially. At each step with an evidence marker ([SCREENSHOT: name] or [EVIDENCE: name]), capture the appropriate evidence.

The execution method depends on the project type:

• UI projects: Use Playwright MCP browser tools, capture screenshots at each viewport
• API projects: Use curl or test commands, capture stdout/stderr
• Library projects: Run tests, capture output

Stack-specific overrides provide the actual execution implementation.

Step 4: Generate Evidence Templates

After capturing all evidence, run the template generator to format evidence for JIRA and GitHub.

Step 5: Post Evidence

Use the /jira-evidence skill to post everything:

bash .claude/skills/jira-evidence/scripts/post-evidence.sh <TICKET_ID> ./evidence <PR_NUMBER>

Step 6: Verify

Confirm evidence renders at both the JIRA ticket and GitHub PR.
