Closed sprints can’t be reopened in Jira
Complete a sprint by mistake and there is no native way to reopen it — the sprint is closed for good.
The problem
Once a sprint is completed, there is no supported way to reopen it. A single accidental click forces teams to recreate the sprint and move issues back by hand, losing the original history.
Who runs into this
Scrum masters and anyone who has clicked Complete Sprint a day early.
How Patcher fixes it
Patcher adds a safe reopen action for recently closed sprints, restoring the sprint and its issues so your velocity and reports stay accurate.

Can confirm — reproduces 100% of the time on a fresh project. How is this still open?
