Ticket to Spec + Test Stubs

Step 1: Fetch Ticket

Use the Jira MCP server to fetch ticket $ARGUMENTS:

• Summary and description
• Acceptance criteria (check the AC field, or custom fields)
• Comments (often contain clarifications)
• Linked issues and subtasks

If Jira MCP is not available, ask the user to paste the ticket details.

Step 2: Analyze Requirements

Extract testable requirements from (in priority order):

1. Acceptance criteria field (if present)
2. Description (parse for behavioral statements)
3. Comments (look for clarifications from product/QA)

If requirements are too vague to write tests, STOP and output:

⚠️ CLARIFICATION NEEDED — Ticket lacks clear testable requirements.
What I found: [summary]
What I need: [specific questions]

Step 3: Create Feature Spec

Create docs/context/specs/<ticket-id>-<short-name>.md with sections:

• Source (ticket URL)
• Context (from description)
• Acceptance Criteria (from AC field or synthesized)
• Technical Approach (proposed, marked DRAFT)
• Test Plan (unit + integration test cases)
• Open Questions (any ambiguity found)

Step 4: Scaffold Test Stubs

Detect the project stack and create test file(s) with empty test functions matching the acceptance criteria.

Step 5: Update Sprint

Add the ticket to docs/context/CURRENT_SPRINT.md as "In Progress".
