An Atlassian skill that converts a specification stored in Confluence into a Jira backlog.
What the skill teaches
An Atlassian skill that converts a specification stored in Confluence into a Jira backlog. The agent reads the page, asks which Jira project to use, splits the requirements into implementation tasks and shows the proposed breakdown to the user. After approval it creates an Epic first and then the child tickets linked to it, finishing with a list of everything it created. It runs through the Atlassian Rovo MCP server and ships with reference notes for structuring tickets.
Capabilities
- Read a specification page from Confluence
- Break requirements into implementation tasks
- Create a Jira Epic and linked child tickets
