┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ You: "What's blocking the Q4 release?" │
├───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Claude: Analyzing 147 issues across 3 projects... │
│ │
│ Found 4 blockers: │
│ • PLATFORM-234: API rate limiting (blocked 12 issues) │
│ • MOBILE-567: iOS signing certificate expired │
│ • WEB-890: Pending security review │
│ • INFRA-123: Database migration not scheduled │
│ │
│ Recommended actions: │
│ 1. Escalate PLATFORM-234 to @api-team (highest impact) │
│ 2. MOBILE-567 can be resolved by @devops today │
│ 3. WEB-890 needs @security-lead approval │

The Difference
❌ The JQL Way
project = PROJ AND
status IN ("To Do", "In Progress") AND
assignee = currentUser() AND
sprint IN openSprints() AND
priority IN (High, Highest)
ORDER BY priority DESC, created ASC
Hope you remembered the syntax...
|
✅ The Natural Way
"Show my high priority sprint work"
Just ask.
