Write complete, ready-to-pull work items for an issue tracker: bugs, tasks, stories, spikes, and epics, each with the fields, attachments, and done test its type requires. Use this skill whenever the user wants to write a ticket, create a Jira issue, Linear issue, or GitHub issue, file a bug report, write a user story or acceptance criteria, scope a spike, open an epic, or break work into tasks. Triggers on write a ticket, create an issue, file a bug, bug report, user story, spike, epic, task…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Ticket Authoring

Turn specs, bug reports, and loose requests into work items someone can pull and start without asking a question. Tracker-agnostic: works in Jira, Linear, GitHub Issues, or your tracker of choice.

---

## When to use

- Turning a PRD or spec into a set of tickets
- Filing a bug that someone else will fix
- Writing a user story with checkable acceptance criteria
- Scoping a spike so it ends in a decision, not a shrug
- Opening an epic with a goal, a metric, and a way to kill it
- Auditing a backlog for tickets that are not ready to pull
- Tagging work items with a capitalization stage for finance

## When NOT to use

- Writing the PRD or spec itself (use `pm-spec-writing`)
- Deciding what ships this quarter (use `roadmap-planning`)
- Running sprint ceremonies or measuring the team (use `sprint-operations`)
- Writing up what went wrong after the fact (use `after-action-report`)
- Handing a whole plan to a coding agent to execute unattended (use `dispatch-authoring`)

---

## Required inputs

- The source material: a spec, a bug description, a request, or a conversation
- The ticket type, or enough context to pick one

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add rampstackco/claude-skills/ticket-authoring@sha256:ab681d0600e225dc

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261019.449c367, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
