ticket-to-code-change

ticket-to-code-change is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from OpenHands/extensions. It costs 84 tokens per session (549 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An automation that watches Jira or Linear for implementation-ready tickets, asks OpenHands to make and test the change, and opens a pull or merge request.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps dispatch tickets, include their acceptance criteria and dependencies, run implementation and tests, and update issue status.
Why use it?
It reduces the handoff work between an approved task and a reviewable code change while keeping the ticket and code request connected.

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

ticket-to-code-change 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 4d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 56 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Ticket to code change

Create an automation that turns implementation-ready tickets into tested pull requests or merge requests.

Information to collect

Ask the user for:

  1. The issue tracker: Linear. Jira automations are set up with the jira-issue-to-pr skill instead, which ships a poller.
  2. The source-control provider: GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket Cloud.
  3. The project or team to watch and the label or workflow state that means "implementation ready".
  4. How a ticket identifies its target repository and base branch.
  5. The polling schedule or issue event to use.
  6. The ticket state to set when work starts and when the change request opens.
  7. Whether linked dependencies must be completed before dispatch.

Setup workflow

  1. Verify that both required integrations are connected and can read the selected project and repository.
  2. Prefer an issue event trigger when the deployment can receive events; otherwise use cron polling with durable issue-ID deduplication.
  3. Limit each run to a small configurable number of new tickets. On initial deployment, establish a baseline instead of dispatching the entire backlog.
  4. Build a prompt that includes the full ticket, acceptance criteria, dependency status, repository, base branch, and provider-specific request terminology. Require the agent to run the repository's tests before opening the pull request or merge request.
  5. Create the automation through the Automation backend's prompt-preset endpoint. On OpenHands Cloud or Enterprise the backend is the <HOST> value in your system prompt, authenticated with Authorization: Bearer $OPENHANDS_API_KEY. On a local Agent Canvas it is the Automation backend described in <RUNTIME_SERVICES>, authenticated with the runtime-provided automation API key.
  6. Configure the automation to post the OpenHands conversation URL immediately and the resulting pull-request or merge-request URL back to the ticket.

Do not dispatch tickets with unresolved dependencies or without an unambiguous target repository; comment on the ticket with the missing information instead.

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.
