Project key and four statuses

The skills move issues through four workflow statuses, and they match names literally — In progress and In Progress are different statuses.

Create or choose the Jira board, then identify the project's key and the four real workflow status names. When the project list is returned, choose the project explicitly; do not silently pick one just because its name resembles the repository.

  • STATUS_TODO
  • STATUS_IN_PROGRESS
  • STATUS_IN_REVIEW
  • STATUS_DONE

The default Kanban names are a useful reference:

SettingDefault Kanban nameWho sets it
STATUS_TODOTo Dono skill does — it names the status new issues land in, and it's the only status the optional branch-create Action advances from
STATUS_IN_PROGRESSIn Progressjira-task-executor, when it starts work
STATUS_IN_REVIEWIn Reviewjira-task-executor, when its PR opens
STATUS_DONEDonejira-task-reviewer step 7, but only for approved issues and only if you say yes — otherwise GitHub-for-Jira automation on merge, or you, by hand

Those defaults are the Kanban template's names, not a requirement. Boards can differ: In Review is missing from several Jira templates, and a board with Backlog / Selected for Development instead of To Do is normal too.
