Ensure YouTrack Issue
Steps
1. Determine intent
| Signal | Action |
|---|
User provides ticket ID (DBA-123, 123, or URL) | Validate (step 2) |
| User asks to create a ticket | Draft (step 3) |
| No ticket mentioned | Ask: "Do you have a YouTrack ticket?" |
2. Validate
Fetch with get_issue. If found, confirm with user it matches the work.
If not found, offer to create (step 3).
3. Draft
From conversation context, propose:
- Summary: imperative one-line title
- Description: 2-4 sentences
- Type: Bug / Task / Feature (default: Task)
Ask user to approve, edit, or reject.
Autosteer exception: create immediately without approval.
4. Create
Use create_issue in DBA project. Report created issue ID.

Set State to Develop via update_issue.
Guardrails
- Never create without user approval of summary/description/type (except in autosteer mode).
- Always validate when user provides an existing ID.
- If YouTrack MCP unavailable, refer to
DEVELOPMENT.md.
- Default to DBA project. Accept
DBA-XXX, bare numbers, or URLs.
- Respect user declining to create a ticket.
