create-epic-from-feature

create-epic-from-feature is a command for Claude Code from quay/ai-helpers. It costs 15 tokens per session (3,425 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that turns a JIRA feature into an epic, a larger piece of planned work made up of smaller issues, and creates it in JIRA.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for reviewing a generated epic title and description before creating the epic in JIRA.
Why use it?
It removes the manual work of gathering the feature's details, related issues, and acceptance criteria while keeping customer information out of the new epic.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

create-epic-from-feature scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Create Epic from Feature

Analyze a JIRA feature and generate a comprehensive epic title and description. This command analyzes the feature in the context of the Quay codebase, displays the generated epic for review, and creates it in JIRA.

Feature Key

The JIRA feature to convert to an epic: $ARGUMENTS


Phase 1: Fetch and Analyze Feature

Step 1: Retrieve Feature Details

Fetch the complete feature information from JIRA:

acli jira workitem view $ARGUMENTS

Extract and analyze:

  • Feature summary and description
  • Component (ui, api, data, buildman, storage, workers, etc.)
  • Current status and priority
  • Labels and tags
  • Comments and discussion context
  • Linked issues (dependencies, related work)
  • Acceptance criteria
  • Original requester and stakeholders
  • Story points or estimates (if present)

IMPORTANT - Customer Data Sanitization:

  • Remove all customer-specific information from the epic content
  • Replace customer/company names with generic terms like "customer", "organization", "enterprise user"
  • Redact specific deployment details, URLs, or infrastructure information
  • Use generic use cases instead of customer-specific scenarios
  • Remove any support case numbers or customer ticket references
  • Focus on the technical problem and solution, not customer identifiers

Step 2: Determine Feature Scope

Analyze whether this feature warrants epic-level promotion:

Questions to consider:

  • Does this span multiple components or teams?
  • Will this take multiple sprints to complete?
  • Are there multiple distinct sub-features or stories needed?
  • Does this represent a significant new capability or major refactor?
  • Are there multiple stakeholders or cross-team dependencies?

If the feature is too small for an epic:

  • Inform the user that this may not need epic-level tracking
  • Explain why (e.g., "single component change", "1-2 sprint effort")
  • Ask if they still want to proceed

Step 3: Understand Codebase Context

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
