Is there an existing issue for this?

Summary

Add the option to show the estimates for each Work Item on the Epic page.

Why should this be worked on?

Facilities planning by making it possible to look at an Epic (we use epics for features or capabilities we are building) and assess the size of each Work Item in the Epic.

[GIT-95] [feature]: Work Item Estimates on the Epic View

HI @leedsjb Thanks for the input, agreed. We’ll update the display properties to include estimates.

This is a solid request. Visibility into granular estimates at the epic level is critical for realistic planning. A few things to consider as you scope this: First, decide if estimates should be editable inline or view-only on the epic page—inline editing reduces friction but adds complexity. Second, consider showing aggregate metrics like total estimate, confidence intervals, or confidence distribution alongside individual items. Third, think about how this integrates with your workflow—do you want estimates to roll up automatically, or should there be manual override capability? Finally, consider visual hierarchy: highlight estimates that seem out of line with similar work items, and make it easy to drill down into estimation rationale. This helps teams align on estimation standards and catch planning errors early.
