jira

A command that fetches a Jira issue, Jira being a system for tracking software work, and prepares its details for creating a specification. It supports either of two possible Jira integrations when configured.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it with a Jira issue key to retrieve the ticket and extract its title, description, and acceptance criteria. The input describes this as experimental and not yet tested in production.
Why use it?
It removes the need to copy ticket details manually into a specification workflow. If no Jira integration is available, it explains that setup is required.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 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 2d 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 fetching a Jira ticket and preparing its details for spec creation.

The ticket number is: $ARGUMENTS

Step 1 — Detect which MCP server is available

Check in this order:

  1. Is mcp__atlassian__getJiraIssue available? → use the official Atlassian Rovo MCP server
  2. Is mcp__mcp-atlassian__jira_get_issue available? → use the community mcp-atlassian server
  3. Neither available → stop and tell the user:
    • Jira integration requires an MCP server to be configured
    • See the README under Jira Integration for setup instructions for both options
    • Once configured, restart Claude Code and run this command again

Step 2 — Fetch the ticket

Call the available tool with the issue key $ARGUMENTS:

  • Official server: mcp__atlassian__getJiraIssue with issueIdOrKey set to the ticket number
  • Community server: mcp__mcp-atlassian__jira_get_issue with issue_key set to the ticket number

If the call returns an error (ticket not found, not authenticated, etc.), stop and show the error clearly. Do not proceed.

Step 3 — Parse the ticket

From the response, extract:

  • Title — the issue summary
  • Description — the full issue description, including any acceptance criteria

Show the user a clear summary of what you found and ask:

  • "Does this look right? Shall I create the spec from this?"
  • Only proceed after confirmation

Step 4 — Suggest next step

Once confirmed, show the user the ready-to-run command:

"Ready to create the spec? Run:"

/specforge:create $ARGUMENTS | <title> | <description>

Where <title> and <description> are filled in with the values extracted from the ticket.

Do not create the spec file yourself. Do not invoke /specforge:create directly.

Changes

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.

jira is a command published in the GitHub repository marcmallet/specforge (9 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 17 tokens to every session and 482 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
