Automate GitHub PRs & JIRA Updates via Git Commit Commands (Single Repo)

This n8n workflow bridges GitHub and JIRA for single-repository development teams. Triggered by GitHub webhooks on commits, it uses a Code node to parse commit messages for JIRA issue keys (e.g., FF-1196), base branches (e.g., development), and commands like [auto-pr] or [taskcompleted].

If [auto-pr] is detected, an IF node routes to the GitHub node to create a PR from the developer's branch to the base branch. Separately, if [taskcompleted] appears, another IF node triggers the JIRA node to transition the issue to 'Done' status, keeping project tracking in sync without manual intervention.

Benefits include eliminating manual PR creation and ticket updates, reducing errors, and enabling multiple commits before PRs. Ideal for agile teams using GitHub and JIRA, it saves hours weekly on routine tasks, supports WIP commits, and scales for consistent dev processes.

Use cases: Small to mid-sized dev teams automating release cycles, enforcing commit conventions, or integrating code changes with project management in real-time.
