Fetch the Jira issue $ARGUMENTS from the Datadog Atlassian instance and use it as the basis for a codebase analysis and implementation proposal.

Step 1: Gather Jira issue data

Use the Atlassian MCP tools to fetch the issue. Only request the fields you need to avoid huge responses:

  1. Call mcp__atlassian__getJiraIssue with:
    • cloudId: datadoghq.atlassian.net
    • issueIdOrKey: $ARGUMENTS
    • fields: ["summary", "description", "status", "assignee", "issuetype", "comment", "priority"]
  2. Extract the title (summary), description, status, assignee, and comments from the response.

If the issue cannot be found, stop and inform the user.

Step 2: Summarize the issue

Present a clear summary of the Jira issue:

  • Key: $ARGUMENTS
  • Title: the issue summary
  • Status: current status
  • Assignee: who is assigned
  • Description: the full description
  • Comments: any relevant context or discussion from comments
  • Link: https://datadoghq.atlassian.net/browse/$ARGUMENTS

Step 3: Fetch linked resources

Scan the issue description and comments for links to external resources and fetch them for additional context:

  • Datadog notebooks / postmortems (app.datadoghq.com/notebook/<id>): use mcp__datadog-mcp__get_datadog_notebook with the notebook ID
  • GitHub PRs (github.com/.../pull/<number>): use gh pr view <number> via Bash
  • GitLab commits/pipelines or other URLs: use WebFetch if accessible

This step is critical — linked resources often contain the root cause analysis, timelines, and technical details that the Jira description alone does not capture.

Step 4: Analyze the codebase

Based on the issue requirements and linked resources, explore the codebase to understand:

  • Which files and packages are relevant
  • Existing patterns and conventions that should be followed
  • Dependencies and potential impacts

Use Glob, Grep, and Read tools extensively. For broad exploration, use the Task tool with subagent_type=Explore.

Step 5: Propose an implementation

Enter plan mode with EnterPlanMode and write a detailed implementation plan that includes:

  • A breakdown of the changes needed, organized by file
  • Any new files that need to be created
  • Test strategy
  • Potential risks or open questions

Wait for user approval before implementing.
