jira-zephyr-mcp: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

jira-zephyr-mcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from leorosignoli/jira-zephyr-mcp. It costs 385 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Instructions for connecting an MCP server to JIRA and Zephyr Scale, a test-management system used to organize and run software tests. They document required settings and the available test and issue operations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them to read JIRA issues, create test cases and plans, run test cycles, update results, link tests to issues, and generate reports.
Why use it?
They explain how to configure the connection and what the server can do, reducing setup errors when managing tests from an AI assistant.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md.

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-zephyr-mcp CLAUDE.md 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 1mo 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.

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.
