An n8n workflow automation that monitors new GitHub issues and classifies them by label — security, bug, or feature request. Each issue type is routed through IF-based decision logic to create the appropriate Jira ticket with correct priority and project assignment. The engineering team receives real-time Slack triage notifications for every newly created Jira issue.
