Create a Jira Epic with one story per applicable NFR, turning the NFR compliance table into trackable sprint work. Each story includes the requirement, evidence guidance, and acceptance criteria.
Usage
/nfr-jira-epic ERPSystem CS1 all,gdpr
/nfr-jira-epic "AlertHub" CS1 all,gdpr ARCH
/nfr-jira-epic DataPlatform CS2 all,pci,gdpr,caa_nis
Data Source
All NFR data is read from .claude/data/nfr-reference.yaml — the single source of truth for all 66 NFRs. Do NOT hard-code NFR content; always read from the YAML.
Prerequisites
- Atlassian MCP tools must be available (Jira access via
createJiraIssue) - User must have permissions to create issues in the target Jira project
Instructions
Phase 1: Load NFR Data
- Read
.claude/data/nfr-reference.yaml - Parse sections and NFRs
- Read
.claude/data/nfr-evidence-rules.yamlfor automated check references
Phase 2: Filter NFRs
- Parse the
typesargument into a list (split on comma) - Always include
allin the types list - Filter sections by applicability (same logic as
/nfr-capture) - Map CS tier to SL tier: CS1→SL1, CS2→SL2, CS3→SL3, CS4→SL4
Phase 3: Determine Jira Project
If project argument is provided, use it. Otherwise, ask the user:
Which Jira project should the NFR Epic be created in?
Enter the Jira project key (e.g., ARCH, ENG, OPS):
Phase 4: Create Epic
Use the Atlassian MCP createJiraIssue tool to create the Epic:
- Issue Type: Epic
- Project: [project key]
- Summary:
NFR Compliance — [System Name] ([CS tier]/[SL tier]) - Description:
h2. NFR Compliance Epic
*System:* [System Name]
*Classification:* [CS tier] / [SL tier]
*Applicability:* [types list]
*Sections:* [included count] of 13
*NFRs:* [included NFR count] of 66
This epic tracks NFR compliance for [System Name] as defined in the BA NFR Template (Confluence page 664765269, v0.2).
Each story represents one NFR requirement. Stories close when evidence is attached and reviewed.
*Generated by:* /nfr-jira-epic skill
*NFR Reference:* .claude/data/nfr-reference.yaml
- Labels:
nfr-compliance,nfr-epic
Phase 5: Create Stories
For each applicable NFR, create a Jira story linked to the Epic:
- Issue Type: Story
- Project: [project key]
- Summary:
[NFR ID] — [NFR title] - Description:
h2. [NFR ID]: [NFR title]
h3. Requirement
[nfr.requirement]
h3. Guidance
[nfr.guidance]
h3. Target ([SL tier])
[tier_values for SL tier if tiered, else "Not tiered — applies uniformly"]
h3. Evidence Guidance
[nfr.evidence_guidance]
h3. Evidence Type
[nfr.evidence_type] — [If automated: "Automated checks available via nfr-evidence-collect.sh"]
h3. Acceptance Criteria
* Evidence is documented and linked to this story
* Evidence matches the format described in Evidence Guidance
* Status is confirmed as Met, Partial, or N/A with justification
[If evidence_type == automated]:
* Automated check results attached (AWS Config / CLI output)
- Labels:
nfr-compliance,nfr-[section-id lowercase](e.g.,nfr-sec,nfr-rel) - Priority: Mapped from CS tier:
- CS1 → Critical
- CS2 → High
- CS3 → Medium
- CS4 → Low
- Epic Link: Link to the Epic created in Phase 4
Rate limiting: Pause briefly between story creation calls to avoid Jira API rate limits. Create stories section by section.
Phase 6: Summary
After creating all stories, print a summary:
NFR Jira Epic Created for [System Name] ([CS tier]/[SL tier])
Epic: [PROJ]-[ID] — NFR Compliance — [System Name] ([CS tier]/[SL tier])
URL: [epic URL]
Stories created: [count] of [total applicable NFRs]
| Section | Stories | IDs |
|---------|---------|-----|
| [Section Name] | [count] | [PROJ-ID, PROJ-ID, ...] |
| ... | ... | ... |
Priority: [CS1→Critical/CS2→High/CS3→Medium/CS4→Low]
Labels: nfr-compliance, nfr-[section-ids]
Next steps:
1. Assign stories to team members or squads
2. Add to sprint backlog
3. Use /nfr-capture with-evidence-prompts for guidance on completing each NFR
4. Close stories when evidence is attached and reviewed
