Generate Card Description using SwiftKanban AI Agent

What It Does: Automatically generates clear and relevant descriptions for cards such as user stories, epics, defects, and custom card types. The AI Agent uses available card information to create a meaningful description with minimal effort.

Key Benefits:

  • Save time by generating a strong starting point for card descriptions.
  • Easily modify or fine-tune the description to meet specific requirements.
  • Adjust the tone to align with your audience.

How It Works: Kanban Assist generates card descriptions by analyzing:

  1. Persona or role of the logged-in user (e.g., Developer, Product Owner)
  2. Card name, which provides the primary context
  3. Parent card details, when available, to ensure better alignment

Having all this information gives you the best results; however, the only mandatory requirement is the card name.

Options Available:

  • Insert: Directly add the generated description into the card’s Description field with one click.
  • Regenerate: Generate a new version of the description if the current one doesn’t meet your requirements.
  • Copy: Copy the generated description to use elsewhere or as a reference.
  • Edit: Modify the generated description within Kanban Assist to better align with your needs.

Example: Generating a Description Using SwiftKanban AI Agent

Scenario:

You are a Product Owner working on a project titled “Product Development.” As part of this project, you have an Epic titled “Schedule a call with a prospect,” with the following description:

As a user scheduling feedback calls, I should be able to streamline the scheduling of feedback calls with prospects by integrating Calendly, allowing automatic scheduling and meeting invites to be sent without manual intervention. This enhances the efficiency of prospect engagement and feedback collection processes.

You are now working on a linked User Story titled “Integration with Calendly for Feedback Call Scheduling.”

How the AI Agent Works:

Using the context provided by the Epic and User Story details, the Kanban Assist AI Agent generates a relevant and comprehensive description for the User Story.

  • Ensure no important detail is missed when reviewing card discussions.

How It Works: Kanban Assistant analyzes the following:

Example: Generating a Comment Summary Using SwiftKanban AI Agent

Scenario:

Ethan Jacob, a developer, is assigned a defect titled “Users unable to save changes to their profile information.” While working on this defect, Ethan collaborates with Clara William, a tester, to troubleshoot the issue. The following comment thread is exchanged:

Comment Thread:

Ethan Jacob: I’m unable to reproduce the issue on my end. I tested saving changes, and everything worked fine. Could you check if it’s happening for all users or just specific ones?

Clara William: The issue seems to occur only for users with admin roles. Other users can save their profile changes without any problems.

Ethan Jacob: Got it, Clara. I’ll investigate if there are any permission-related problems for admin users on the ‘Save’ functionality.

Clara William:Let me know once you find something. I’ll recheck it once you make any changes.

Ethan Jacob: I’ll keep you updated. I’m still looking into it and waiting for some input from the backend team regarding the permissions.

Mark Robinson, the Product Owner, opens the Comments & Attachments tab of this defect. Instead of reading through the entire thread, he uses Kanban Assist to quickly generate a concise summary of the comments.

How the AI Agent Works:

Kanban Assist reviews the conversation and produces a concise summary capturing the key findings and actions.
