Summary card - quick health check

The Summary panel gives you a quick health check of your issue's progress.

• Cycle Time — Total time from when work started to completion

  • Working — Time spent in active work statuses (shown as percentage of cycle time)

  • Wait — Time spent waiting between handoffs (shown as percentage of cycle time)

• Time in backlog — How long the issue sat before work began

• Status indicator (border color)

  • Compares this issue against similar completed work

• Status border color meaning

  • “Progressing faster” (green) - issue is progressing faster than 50% of similar work

  • "On track" (blue) means the issue is progressing within normal range

  • “Taking longer” (orange) - issue is taking longer than 85% of similar work

  • “Exceeded worst case” (red) - is progressing slower than 95% of similar work

Forecast card - know how long similar work takes

Predicts how long your issue will take based on similar completed work of the same type.

• Based on X stories from [board] — Predictions are based on completed issues of the same type from your selected board.

• Likely — The typical duration (50th percentile). Half of similar work completed faster than this.

• Plan for — A safer estimate for planning (85th percentile). Most similar work completed within this time.

• Worst — The outer bound (95th percentile). Only 5% of similar work took longer than this.

• Variation indicator — Flags when similar work has inconsistent durations

  • "Very high variation detected" means predictions are less reliable

  • Click "Understand why" to see what's causing the variation
