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

jira-ticket-readyup 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/validate-ticket.ts), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

jira-ticket-readyup

Turn a sparse Jira backlog ticket — or a brand-new item with no key yet — into a fully-structured "ready for refinement" document by gathering incident context (or interviewing the user when no source material answers a required question), applying the standard template, and validating the output against both the schema and gap-detection heuristics.

When to Use This Skill

Use jira-ticket-readyup when:

  • User asks to "ready up" or "prepare for refinement" one or more Jira tickets
  • A ticket exists but lacks Context, Conditions of Satisfaction, or Acceptance Criteria
  • User wants to promote a follow-up ticket (spawned from an incident) into a proper backlog item
  • User wants to draft a brand-new backlog ticket that has no Jira key yet (set ticket.new_ticket: true — see Step 2a)

Do NOT use for:

  • Tickets that are already in "Ready for Refinement" status with full descriptions

What a Good Ticket Looks Like

A ticket is "ready for refinement" when it has all four sections:

Section Purpose
Context Background on the service, current behaviour, and why it matters
Conditions of Satisfaction MUST / SHOULD / COULD requirements
Acceptance Criteria Specific, testable conditions that define "done"
Supporting Information Links to repos, files, and related tickets

The reference example ticket should be supplied by the user when invoking this skill (a ticket already in "Ready for Refinement" status in their Jira project).

Step-by-Step Workflow

Step 1 — Read the YAML template

MANDATORY before generating any output:

# Always read this first — it defines the required fields and comments
skills/project-mgmt/issue-tracker-toolkit/jira-ticket-readyup/assets/templates/ready-for-refinement.yaml

Do NOT generate a ticket data file without loading this template.

Step 2 — Gather context

For an existing ticket (has a Jira key):

  1. Fetch the ticket itself:
    jira_get_issue(issue_key="PROJ-NNN", fields="summary,description,status,issuetype,issuelinks")

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.
