start-work
Start Work
Assign a Jira issue to yourself and convert it into an OpenSpec proposal. Hands off to the OPSX workflow once the proposal exists.
When to use
- The user wants to start work on a specific Jira issue they've named.
- The user wants to pick up the next available issue from the board ("start work", "next ticket").
- The user is beginning a new unit of work and needs both the Jira and OpenSpec side set up.
Examples:
- "start work" — takes the topmost issue from the board after confirming.
- "start work PROJ-123" — uses the specified issue.
