Available Templates

Sections: Environment, Steps to Reproduce, Expected/Actual Behavior, Error Messages, Technical Notes

Syntax Validation
Run before submitting to Jira:
${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/validate-jira-syntax.sh path/to/content.txt
It gates the post — run it as its own step, never chained with the posting command.
