Link more pull requests with smart issue suggestions

Ever merged a pull request only to realize later that you forgot to link it to an issue? We’ve all been there. Now, Swarmia has your back with smart issue suggestions that make linking easier than ever.

When you merge a pull request that isn’t linked to an issue, the Swarmia Slack bot will now suggest relevant issues based on your pull request details. The suggestions are powered by AI that analyzes your PR and issue metadata to find the most likely matches.

Why this matters: Linking pull requests to issues gives you a complete picture of your work. Without these links, Swarmia can only show data from your issue tracker, missing all the coding activity that actually happened. With better linking, you get deeper insights into cycle times, scope changes, and team collaboration patterns.

Getting started: These smart suggestions work automatically if you have personal notifications enabled and your team has adopted the “link pull requests to issues” working agreement. The bot will send you suggestions right in Slack, so you can link your work without losing momentum.

Try it out on your next unlinked PR and see how much easier it is to keep your work connected.
