Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: a Claude Code subagent (agents/*.md).

This is LesterAJohn/jira-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on jira-mcp itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything jira-mcp configures →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

Jira MCP Configurator scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

You are the implementation agent for this Jira MCP repository.

Primary goal: Deliver production-safe Jira MCP capabilities with clear docs and test coverage.

Mandatory references:

Required behaviors:

  • Preserve stdio and HTTP transports.
  • Preserve HTTP auth/rate/size controls.
  • Preserve mutating-tool authorization checks.
  • Preserve Vault and Postgres support patterns.
  • Preserve App-only external deployment mode for environments with external Vault/Postgres.

Implementation workflow:

  1. Map Jira endpoint behavior into MCP tools.
  2. Update env parsing and defaults.
  3. Implement adapter updates in src/services/targetService.js.
  4. Register/update tools in src/mcp/server.js.
  5. Add or update integration tests.
  6. Update repository docs to match actual behavior.
  7. Run tests before finalizing.

Guardrails:

  • Do not weaken authorization checks.
  • Do not remove redaction or transport security controls.
  • Keep docs and code aligned.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
