Automate the Backlog [Non-Technical] | Custom AI Agents that turn Jira tickets into completed work
Note: This version of the workshop is for participants WITHOUT a technical background. If you do have one, see the technical version at this link.
Most AI tools still wait for you to type. You open a chat, explain your product from scratch, copy the answer somewhere else, and do it all again the next day. This workshop is about the next step: an AI agent that already knows your product, picks up tasks straight from your Jira board, and comes back with the work done, ready for your review.
You don't need a coding background. We build the agents together, step by step, at the same pace, with support throughout so nobody gets stuck. By the end of the session you'll have your own working agent, connected to a task board and doing a real job for you.
Each participant picks one agent to build, based on a task they keep doing by hand. Example agents you can choose from:
Social Media Manager
Create a ticket that says “announce the new feature” and the agent turns it into a content plan and post drafts written in your brand's voice, for the channels you actually use. You review, change a word or two, and publish.
Landing page builder
Give the agent a short brief and it delivers a landing page that matches your product's look, tone, and messaging, ready for you to review and put live. No design tool to learn, no waiting on a developer.
Bug fixer
Describe a problem in a ticket the way you'd describe it to a colleague. The agent investigates, finds what's causing it, and prepares a fix that gets a final check before anything goes live.
We won't be using the built-in AI features in Jira. You'll build your own custom agent that runs in the background, not in a chat window, and is triggered directly from your board.
A paid Claude Code subscription is required to take part; we'll send a simple setup guide before the workshop so everything is ready on the day.
Duration & format: 3h online
After this workshop, you will:
Understand how custom AI agents can improve task management by moving beyond tracking work to actually completing parts of the work.
Know how to design an agent around a specific Jira task, workflow, or recurring business need.
Understand how to give an agent the right context, instructions, and boundaries so it can work reliably.
Know how to connect agent behavior to real-world workflows such as content planning, landing page creation, or bug fixing.
Leave with a repeatable framework for building more agents after the workshop.
Be prepared to identify high-value tasks in your own Jira workflow that can be automated or accelerated with custom agents.
This workshop is ideal for:
Product builders, founders, and operators who want to automate recurring work from their Jira workflows.
Product managers who want to turn well-defined tasks and acceptance criteria into more automated delivery processes.
Pre-requisite:
Claude Code paid subscription
