Jira estimator
Heuristic story-point estimation for a single Jira ticket via the jira-estimator agent. Read-only. Triggers: 'estimate KEY', 'story points for KEY', 'how complex is KEY'. NOT for complexity-only analysis (mk:jira-evaluator); NOT for full RCA (mk:jira-analyst).From its SKILL.md

mk:jira-estimator
Forks to the jira-estimator agent. Read-only heuristic estimation. If a prior mk:jira-evaluator report exists at tasks/reports/jira-evaluate-*-{KEY}.md, the agent reads it and incorporates the complexity signals.
Triggers
- "estimate PROJ-123"
- "story points for PROJ-123"
- "how complex is PROJ-123 in points?"
Examples
- Cold estimate: "estimate PROJ-456 — give me a Fibonacci range and reasoning."
- Post-evaluate: "I just evaluated PROJ-456; now estimate it."

- provide a fibonacci range and reasoning
- run jira-evaluator first for complexity signals
Grouped from the skills themselves: near-identical wordings counted once, and counted by distinct author, so one author publishing three of these counts once. Length counted with cl100k_base; the agent that loads this file may tokenize it differently.
