SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires cloudflared, curl, python3, jq, and includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Manually managing Jira tickets across the web UI is slow, disrupts workflow, and introduces errors when updating multiple issues or tracking work progress. This Skill eliminates that friction by providing a fast, scriptable CLI for all common Jira operations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Full Ticket Lifecycle Management: Create, retrieve, update, and delete Jira tickets with support for custom fields including priority, labels, assignees, and epic links.
  • Workflow Automation: Transition tickets between statuses, add progress comments, assign work to team members, and search issues using JQL queries directly from the terminal.
  • Use Case: A development team can use this Skill to automatically create bug tickets from error logs, update ticket status as fixes are deployed, and close completed issues without switching context to the Jira web app.

Quick Start

Use the jira-tool skill to create a new high-priority bug ticket for the DEVTOOLS project with the summary 'Fix login authentication failure' and assign it to the user jdoe.
