Jira Communication
CLI scripts via uv run , all supporting help , json , quiet , debug .
Auto Trigger
On Jira URL or issue key (PROJ 123), pick by intent — each is one call:
Intent Tool
triage / work on ticket jira issue.py work KEY
start QA review jira issue.py qa KEY
QA fail follow up jira issue.py qa fail KEY
field only lookup jira issue.py get KEY fields ...
change status jira issue.py act KEY → jira transition.py do
audit / sibling discovery jira qa gather.py KEY
Auth issues → jira setup.py . Anti pattern: get + comment list — use the matching verb.
Scripts
Under ${CLAUDE SKILL DIR}/scripts/{core,workflow,utility}/ .
Core : jira issue.py , jira search.py , jira worklog.py , jira attachment.py , jira setup.py , jira validate.py
Workflow : jira create.py , jira transition.py , jira comment.py , jira move.py , jira sprint.py , jira board.py , jira version.py , tempo account.py
Utility : jira user.py , jira fields.py , jira link.py , jira weblink.py , jira worklog query.py , jira watchers.py , jira qa gather.py
Execution Style
Run directly. Scripts report ✓ / ✗ . Destructive ops: dry run . Global flags before subcommand: jira issue.py json get PROJ 123 .
Basic Usage
Transitions : list shows each transition's id and what its screen requires; pass the id to do — a name or
a target status is not always unique, and an ambiguous one is refused rather than guessed.
Terminal transitions : pass resolution <value ( Done , Won't do ); if rejected ("cannot be set"),
retry without it — references/intent verbs.md . Versions : read references/versions.md before jira version.py .
Mentions : posting commands verify [~username] (miss → suggestions); get / work print usernames ( references/fields and users.md ).
Related Skills
jira syntax : descriptions/comments use Jira wiki markup, not Markdown.
