spec-to-backlog

Automatically convert Confluence specification documents into structured Jira backlogs with Epics and implementation tickets. When an agent needs to: (1) Create Jira tickets from a Confluence page, (2) Generate a backlog from a specification, (3) Break down a spec into implementation tasks, or (4) Convert requirements into Jira issues. Handles reading Confluence pages, analyzing specifications, creating Epics with proper structure, and generating detailed implementation tickets linked to the Epic.

# Spec to Backlog

## Overview

Transform Confluence specification documents into structured Jira backlogs automatically. This skill reads requirement documents from Confluence, intelligently breaks them down into logical implementation tasks, **creates an Epic first** to organize the work, then generates individual Jira tickets linked to that Epic—eliminating tedious manual copy-pasting.

## Core Workflow

**CRITICAL: Always follow this exact sequence:**

1. **Fetch Confluence Page** → Get the specification content
2. **Ask for Project Key** → Identify target Jira project
3. **Analyze Specification** → Break down into logical tasks (internally, don't create yet)
4. **Present Breakdown** → Show user the planned Epic and tickets
