## Learn more about project issue management with an agent

Give your agent the project context, intended outcome and boundaries of the change. It can find existing work and prepare a clear issue or update without receiving your app credentials.

**Describe the work and its home**

Name the workspace, team or project, explain the user or operational problem and include acceptance evidence. Specify owner, priority or due date only when you want those fields set.

**How should an AI agent create and update project issues safely?**

Ask it to search for duplicates, retrieve the current issue before editing and preview changes to status, ownership, dates or scope. One explicit issue operation is easier to review than a broad project cleanup.

**Keep decisions separate from implementation**

Record agreed scope, open questions and dependencies clearly. Do not let the agent mark work complete merely because a ticket was created or edited.

**Example prompt**

This prompt prepares one reviewable issue without writing immediately.

Example prompt to give your agent

`Use Scrollport to search [WORKSPACE OR PROJECT] for existing work about [PROBLEM]. If no equivalent issue exists, draft one with [TITLE], the user impact, proposed scope, acceptance evidence and dependencies. Show me the matching issues or draft and every field you would set before creating or updating anything.`
