@jira:demo12 must look like PROJ-123 — what patterns do the issue tags accept?

Two errors from the same commit:

text

✖ features/cart/coupon.feature:9  tags/jira  @jira:demo12 must look like PROJ-123.
✖ features/cart/coupon.feature:20  tags/github  @github:abc must be an issue number.

I get that the second one wants a number. What is wrong with demo12? Our board key really is lowercase in the URL.

Accepted answer
The lowercase is the problem, and so is the missing dash. @jira: wants the canonical issue key shape: an uppercase letter, then more uppercase letters or digits, then a dash, then digits. DEMO-12 passes. demo12, DEMO12 and demo-12 all fail.
Jira itself renders keys uppercase and its URLs are case-insensitive, so the one you see in the address bar is not evidence. Take the key from the issue header.
@github: is stricter still — digits only, no #, no owner/repo prefix:
gherkin
```
@ui @regression @jira:DEMO-12 @github:412
Scenario: A coupon below the minimum spend is rejected
```
Both tags exist so the run viewer can link the scenario back to the issue, which is why the shape has to be exact rather than nearly right.
