What it does
Ticket Ship is an agent skill from OutThisLife/brooklyn-skills. Take a tracker ticket through to shipped: find or start the PR, drive it to mergeable, update the ticket state, draft the stakeholder message. Use for Jira/Linear (or acli) tickets assigned to you.
Its SKILL.md is about 490 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It works with Jira. The repository describes itself as: Skills that drive best-in-class engineering. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Jira/Linear (or acli) tickets assigned to you
Example prompts
- “/ticket-ship”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Read the ticket and its latest comments, then list existing PRs before starting (acli, Jira, Linear, gh). With acli, request --fields…
- Confirm the correct base branch(es) before starting — some orgs need a

- Draft the stakeholder update — Slack or a ticket comment, short, no-tropes.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8a97904. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Ticket Ship loads about 486 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 52 tokens; SKILL.md has 257 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

- description
- Take a tracker ticket through to shipped: find or start the PR, drive it to mergeable, update the ticket state, draft the stakeholder message. Use for Jira/Linear (or acli) tickets assigned to you.
Ticket → Ship
The ticket-shaped parts of shipping. The PR mechanics live in their own skills — this is what a tracker adds on top.
Steps
- Read the ticket and its latest comments, then list existing PRs before starting (
acli, Jira, Linear,gh). Withacli, request--fields summary,description,status,comment,issuelinks --json: the default view omits comments, which can contain reopened QA scope. Read the existing PR diff as well as its body; follow-up commits can invalidate the body's implementation claims. - Confirm the correct base branch(es) before starting — some orgs need a
release branch plus the default (
stacked-pr). Never assume; verify the org's rule. - Find the existing PR or start one (
work→pr-update), then drive it mergeable (pr-ready) and polish before handoff (clean). - Read the repository's ticket/label guidance before selecting a handoff state; don't substitute generic workflow names. In MR, use
.claude/skills/create-pr/SKILL.mdandteams.mdfor label rules. For an existing DOTCOMPB PR returned by QA and then fixed, the user's retest handoff is In Test with Pending QA Review, not a reset to In Code Review. Preserve the ticket-driven Needs UI Review label. Report CI/deployment blockers separately; In Test does not mean merge-ready. Link the PR and add a factual retest update when the user requests the handoff. - Draft the stakeholder update — Slack or a ticket comment, short,
no-tropes. Don't send it unless asked.
Don't
- Assume the base branch.
- Mark the ticket done while CI is red or review threads are open.
- Let the ticket and the PR tell different stories about the state of the work.
