Steering Copilot work from the Jira chat panel

AI lets developers and project stakeholders provide follow-up instructions directly in Jira chat, making it easier to refine tasks and continue agent-assisted work without leaving the planning environment.

Why the human is still essential here

Humans must clarify requirements, prioritize changes, and judge whether the agent's direction matches business and technical needs. AI assists execution, but people provide judgment and accountability.

How people use this

Acceptance criteria clarifications

Product or engineering stakeholders add follow-up instructions in the Jira chat panel so Copilot incorporates edge cases, constraints, and acceptance criteria before continuing the task.

Scoped bug-fix guidance

Developers use Jira chat to tell the agent which service, file set, or reproduction path to focus on so the generated fix stays narrow and relevant.

Test and quality revisions

After reviewing initial output, engineers instruct Copilot in Jira chat to add tests, tighten error handling, or revise the implementation before the next pull request update.
