ENG-2539b: Slice 0b — JiraTicketTask, pending_external status & polling skeleton

[eastandwestwind]

Description Of Changes

Implements the Fides OSS foundation for Jira ticket lifecycle tracking and status polling, enabling future Jira DSR integration (Slice 4 in Fidesplus).

Code Changes

• Added pending_external to PrivacyRequestStatus enum — represents a privacy request awaiting completion by an external system (e.g., Jira)
• Created JiraTicketTask model (src/fides/api/models/jira_ticket_task.py) with 1:1 FK to ManualTaskInstance, FK to ConnectionConfig, and Jira-specific columns (ticket_key, ticket_url, external_status, external_status_category, last_polled_at)
• Added partial index ix_jira_ticket_task_open for efficient polling of non-done tickets
• Created poll_jira_tickets Celery task skeleton (src/fides/service/jira/polling_task.py) with Redis locking and pluggable register_poll_service() for Fidesplus Slice 4
• Added initiate_jira_ticket_polling() scheduler job wired from main.py startup (10-min default interval, configurable via FIDES__EXECUTION__JIRA_POLLING_INTERVAL_MINUTES)
• Alembic migration c69ef1fecb20 for jira_ticket_task table and pending_external enum value
• Registered JiraTicketTask model in src/fides/api/db/base.py

Steps to Confirm

1. Confirm tests pass
2. Verify polling task starts on boot: Check fides logs at startup for "Initiating scheduler for Jira ticket polling". The task should run every 10 minutes — confirm by looking for APScheduler's "Running job "poll_jira_tickets ..." log entry. The task is a no-op until Slice 4 registers an implementation.

4. Verify config override: Set FIDES__EXECUTION__JIRA_POLLING_INTERVAL_MINUTES=5, restart, and confirm the scheduler picks up the new interval

Greptile Summary

This PR adds the OSS foundation for Jira ticket lifecycle tracking: a new JiraTicketTask model with 1:1 FK to ManualTaskInstance, a pending_external privacy request status, a Celery polling task skeleton with Redis locking and pluggable service registration, and the corresponding Alembic migration. The architecture is clean — the polling task is a no-op until Fidesplus Slice 4 registers an implementation via register_poll_service().

• The polling interval default (10 minutes) should be changed to hours to align with the existing async_polling_interval_hours convention and avoid unnecessary Jira API traffic for operations that can take days or weeks
• The changelog has a placeholder pr: 0 that needs to be updated to 7410
• Test file has unused imports (patch), imports inside test methods, and manual fixture cleanup that contradict repo conventions
• The "done" magic string used for Jira status category filtering should be extracted as a named constant

Confidence Score: 3/5

• Functionally safe to merge as a no-op skeleton, but has convention violations and a placeholder changelog PR number that should be fixed first.
• The core architecture is well-designed and follows existing codebase patterns (scheduler wiring, Redis locking, Celery task structure). However, the polling interval uses minutes instead of the established hours convention, the changelog has a placeholder value, and the test file has several style issues. None of these are runtime-breaking, but they should be addressed before merge.
• src/fides/config/execution_settings.py (polling interval convention), tests/service/jira/test_jira_ticket_task.py (multiple style issues), changelog/ENG-2539b-jira-ticket-task-polling.yaml (placeholder PR number)

Important Files Changed

Filename	Overview
changelog/ENG-2539b-jira-ticket-task-polling.yaml	Changelog entry added with pr: 0 placeholder instead of the actual PR number (7410).
src/fides/api/alembic/migrations/versions/xx_2026_02_18_1200_c69ef1fecb20_add_jira_ticket_task_and_pending_external.py	Migration adds jira_ticket_task table with appropriate FKs, indexes, and pending_external enum value. Downgrade properly recreates the enum. Well-structured.
src/fides/api/models/jira_ticket_task.py	New model with 1:1 FK to ManualTaskInstance, partial index for polling. The "done" magic string should be a named constant.
src/fides/config/execution_settings.py	Adds jira_polling_interval_minutes with 10-minute default. Custom instruction requires polling intervals in hours for production.
src/fides/service/jira/polling_task.py	Celery task skeleton with Redis locking and pluggable service registration. Follows existing codebase patterns well.
tests/service/jira/test_jira_ticket_task.py	Tests cover model CRUD, relationships, and polling task registration. Has unused import (patch), imports inside test methods, and manual fixture cleanup that violates repo conventions.
