Create User Story in YouTrack

Automated user-story creation workflow. Topic/hint: $ARGUMENTS

Step 1 — Gather Context

Use AskUserQuestion tool to ask the user (max 4 questions at once):

  1. Domain — Is this frontend (UI/UX) or backend/coordinator/systems work?
  2. User type — Who is the actor? (e.g. player, admin, bot, system)
  3. Action — What should the user be able to do?
  4. Goal/value — Why? What outcome does it enable?

If $ARGUMENTS already answers some of these, skip those questions.

Step 2 — Research (if needed)

If the topic involves unfamiliar domain logic, game rules, or technical constraints:

  • Search the repo for relevant code (use Grep/Bash to find related files).
  • Use WebSearch if the topic involves external standards or protocols.
  • Do NOT guess. Surface findings before drafting.

Step 3 — Draft Story

Compose the full story using this template:

As a [type of user]
I want to [perform an action]
So that [achieve a goal or value]


Description

[Additional context or business logic for this story.]


Acceptance Criteria

[List the specific, measurable criteria that define when this story is done:]

- Criterion 1
- Criterion 2
- Criterion 3


Implementation Notes

[Technical notes, design references, or constraints.]

Rules:

  • User story line: plain English, present tense, from user's perspective.
  • Acceptance criteria: testable, unambiguous, one condition each.
  • Implementation notes: optional — only include if there are known constraints, related tickets, or design refs.

Step 4 — Clarify Acceptance Criteria

Show the draft to the user. Use AskUserQuestion tool to ask:

  • Are the acceptance criteria complete and correct?
  • Any implementation constraints to add?
  • Priority (if known)?

Incorporate feedback. Repeat until user approves.

Step 5 — Determine Project

  • Frontend / UI / UX → project: NCWF
  • Backend / coordinator / systems / bot / engine → project: NCS

If ambiguous, ask the user.

Step 6 — Create Issue

Call mcp__youtrack__create_issue with:

  • project: determined in Step 5
  • summary: concise title derived from the "I want to" clause (≤72 chars, sentence case)
  • description: full formatted story from Step 3 (Markdown)
  • type: Feature (or Task if purely technical with no user-facing value)

Step 7 — Report

Display the created issue ID and URL. Ask if a linked sub-task or implementation ticket is needed.
