Put a tripwire on
every dependency.
Your team depends on issues owned by other teams. When one slips — due date pushed, punted to the next sprint, gone quiet — Jira tells no one. Tripwire watches the "blocks" links you already use and notifies the dependent team's assignee and lead the minute a blocker slips. Zero rules to write, zero Automation quota used.
The problem
You find out at sprint review.
Another team's blocker slips — the date quietly moves, the ticket gets punted — and the first your team hears of it is a burned sprint. Jira writes the slip to the changelog and tells no one. Fifteen-plus dependency apps will draw you a map, but a map only works if someone is looking. Advanced Roadmaps shows passive red arrows — Premium-only. And hand-rolled Automation rules are per-project fiddly while every run eats the pooled quota your Standard site needs for everything else.
How it works
Install it. Forget it. It tells you.
A focused Forge app for Jira Cloud — no external tool, no data leaving Atlassian.
Install. That's the setup.
Tripwire watches the built-in "blocks" links you already use, across every project, with sensible defaults. No rules to write — the first slip anywhere produces a correct alert.
Slips get pushed, not drawn
Due date pushed later, sprint punt, or a blocker gone quiet for a week: the dependent issue gets a comment @mentioning its assignee and project lead within a minute. And when the blocker resolves — "you're unblocked ✅".
A digest for Monday, a dashboard for triage
A weekly per-project digest of new slips, at-risk dependencies, and wins — plus a Dependencies-at-Risk dashboard for the 10-minute triage that replaces the cross-team status meeting.
Why Tripwire
The enforcement layer the map apps never built
Alerts, not another map
Every dependency app visualizes; none notify. Tripwire is the missing half — it pushes the bad news, so it complements your map app and competes with none.
Made for Jira Standard
No Advanced Roadmaps? That's the point. Works on every Jira Cloud plan — the orgs Premium leaves behind are exactly who this is for.
Zero Automation quota
Runs on Forge, not Jira Automation — watching every date change across projects costs none of the pooled ~1,700 executions/month a Standard site gets.
Built not to spam
Max one alert per dependency per day, bulk reshuffles fold into a single summary, a weekly digest, one-click mute — and blame-free wording throughout.
Catch the next silent slip.
Install Tripwire and the team waiting on a blocker finds out the minute it moves. No rules to write, nothing to configure — it works on the "blocks" links you already use.
