SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates the overhead of manually creating, updating, and tracking Jira issues during content and ops workflows, so teams can move requests through planning, research, production, and release faster.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Issue lifecycle automation via Jira Cloud REST API v3: create issues, transition workflow states, fetch full issue details, and add comments without using the Jira UI.
  • JQL-based discovery for orchestration: search for tasks by labels and status (e.g., research pending, GEO tasks, blog-posts in progress) to drive day-to-day execution.
  • Production pipeline mapping for the blog agent team: supports a repeatable KAN-project structure (epics, tasks, and assets) using consistent issue types, labels, and parent relationships.

Quick Start

Use the jira skill to search for research tasks pending in project KAN by running: python3 /home/workspace/Skills/jira/scripts/jira.py search --jql "project = KAN AND labels = research AND status != Done".

Frequently Asked Questions about jira

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate Jira issue creation and workflow transitions without the UI?▼

You can automate Jira issue creation and workflow transitions by executing CLI commands that call the Jira Cloud REST API v3. This allows you to manage issue lifecycles directly from your terminal, bypassing the Jira UI for faster execution.

How do I search for pending tasks in a Jira project using JQL?▼

You can search for pending tasks by running a CLI search command with a JQL query like "project = KAN AND labels = research AND status != Done". This discovers specific issues across labels such as content, geo, and marketing for orchestration.

Do I need an API token to manage Jira issues via CLI?▼

Yes, managing Jira issues via CLI requires Jira credentials including JIRA_DOMAIN, JIRA_EMAIL, and JIRA_API_TOKEN. These environment variables authenticate the CLI scripts to perform REST API v3 calls for issue creation and transitions.

Can I use JQL to find issues by specific labels for content production pipelines?▼

Yes, you can use JQL to find issues by specific labels for content production pipelines. The CLI supports JQL-based discovery across labels like research, content, geo, marketing, social-post, and affiliate to drive day-to-day execution.

What is the best way to add comments to Jira issues from a terminal?▼

The best way to add comments to Jira issues from a terminal is using the jira.py CLI script. It automates commenting through Jira Cloud REST API v3, eliminating manual UI overhead during content and ops workflows.
