Jira Pull Request Extractor

Jira Pull Request Extractor

This skill recursively discovers Jira issues and extracts all associated GitHub Pull Request links.

IMPORTANT FOR AI: This is a procedural skill - when invoked, you should directly execute the implementation steps defined in this document. Do NOT look for or execute external scripts (like extract_prs.py). Follow the step-by-step instructions in the "Implementation" section below.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when you need to:

• Discover all GitHub PRs associated with a Jira feature and its subtasks
• Extract PR metadata without analyzing PR content
• Build a complete map of PRs for documentation or release notes

Key characteristics:

• ✅ Always recursive: Automatically discovers all descendant issues via childIssuesOf() JQL
• ✅ PR-only: Extracts only Pull Request URLs (ignores Issue and Commit URLs)
• ✅ Dual-source: Extracts from both changelog remote links and text content (description/comments)
• ✅ Structured output: Returns JSON with PR metadata and deduplication across sources

Prerequisites

• MCP Jira server configured and running (required - see extensions/jira/README.md for setup)
• jq installed for JSON parsing
• GitHub CLI (gh) installed and authenticated for fetching PR metadata
• User has read permissions for target Jira issues (including private issues via MCP authentication)
• User has read access to linked GitHub repositories

Output Format

Purpose: This skill returns structured JSON that serves as an interface contract for consuming skills and commands.

Delivery Method:

• Primary: Output JSON directly to the response (no file writes, no user prompts)
• Secondary: Only save to .work/extract-prs/{issue-key}/output.json if user explicitly requests to save results
