Checkdesk for Jira

Checklists that behave like the rest of Jira: progress is a real field, and required items can block a transition.

An Atlassian Forge app by DataForte AB, available on the Atlassian Marketplace.

What it does

Adds a checklist to the Jira issue, in both the new and the classic issue view.
Writes progress (“3/5 (60%)”) into a Jira custom field you own, so it works in JQL, filters, boards, dashboards and automation — not only inside our panel.
A workflow validator can stop a transition while required items are still unchecked, so “definition of done” is enforced rather than suggested.
Templates per project apply themselves the first time someone opens an issue, so the checklist is already there when the work starts.
Runs entirely on Atlassian Forge with no external calls — nothing about your issues leaves Atlassian, and there is no server to run.
