The problem it solves

Getting a full picture of a sprint means clicking through every parent task to see its subtasks one by one. That manual digging eats into time you'd rather spend planning or reviewing actual work.

Who it fits

Project managers or team leads who track sprint progress in Jira.

How it works

  1. On a schedule, the system pulls every parent task in the current sprint
  2. It collects all the subtasks under each parent
  3. The data is merged into a single combined list
  4. Unnecessary fields are removed and the list is formatted into readable text
What you get

Sprint progress you can see at a glance

You get every task and subtask from your current sprint pulled together into one clean, readable list, ready whenever you check in.

What you get

A clean, readable list of every parent task and its subtasks from the current sprint.

What you need

A Jira account with API access.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
