Slack-to-Jira Ticket Filer Agent
Automatically file Jira tickets from Slack emoji reactions, capturing important work without manual copy-paste.
Overview
When a specific emoji is added to a Slack conversation, the agent summarizes the thread and automatically creates a Jira ticket. This saves time and ensures that important context and work items are captured without manual copying and pasting.
