Overview

Automatically extract action items from meeting notes and create Jira tasks with proper assignees. This skill parses unstructured meeting notes (from Confluence or pasted text), identifies action items with assignees, looks up Jira account IDs, and creates tasks—eliminating the tedious post-meeting ticket creation process.

Use this skill when: Users have meeting notes with action items that need to become Jira tasks.

Workflow

Follow this 7-step process to turn meeting notes into actionable Jira tasks:

Step 1: Get Meeting Notes

Obtain the meeting notes from the user.

Option A: Confluence Page URL

If user provides a Confluence URL:

confluence_get_page(
  page_id="[extracted from URL]"
)

URL patterns:

• https://[site].atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/[SPACE]/pages/[PAGE_ID]/[title]
• Extract PAGE_ID from the numeric portion

Option B: Pasted Text

If user pastes meeting notes directly:

• Use the text as-is
• No fetching needed

If Unclear

Ask: "Do you have a Confluence link to the meeting notes, or would you like to paste them directly?"

Step 2: Parse Action Items
