A guide for managing Atlassian Jira, a system for tracking work such as tasks, bugs, and product requirements. It covers project setup, issue creation, searches, workflows, automation, dashboards, and reporting.

Use it to create and search issues, write JQL queries, configure workflows and fields, set up automation, and build Jira reports or dashboards.

Jira work can require precise queries and configuration choices. This helps translate plain-language requests into supported Jira operations and identifies when a task must be done in Jira’s web interface.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00066	$0.03087
Opus 5	$0.00033	$0.01543
Sonnet 5	$0.00013	$0.00617
Haiku 4.5	$0.00007	$0.00309

Security

Grade A, and why

jira-expert 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 10d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/jql_query_builder.py, scripts/workflow_validator.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Atlassian Jira Expert

Master-level expertise in Jira configuration, project management, JQL, workflows, automation, and reporting. Handles all technical and operational aspects of Jira.

Quick Start — Most Common Operations

All MCP examples in this skill use the real Atlassian Remote MCP tools (camelCase, surfaced as mcp__atlassian__<toolName>). The canonical tool list is project-management/references/atlassian-mcp-tools.md — never invent tool names; if a capability isn't listed there, it is not available via MCP.

Create an issue (call getAccessibleAtlassianResources once first to obtain cloudId):

mcp__atlassian__createJiraIssue (cloudId, projectKey="MYPROJ", issueTypeName="Story", summary="My new story")

Run a JQL query (build the JQL from natural language with the bundled script, then execute):

python3 scripts/jql_query_builder.py "high priority bugs assigned to me"
# → emits validated JQL, e.g.: assignee = currentUser() AND type = Bug AND status != Done

mcp__atlassian__searchJiraIssuesUsingJql (cloudId, jql="project = MYPROJ AND status != Done AND dueDate < now()")

Create a project: NOT available via MCP. Use the Jira web UI (Projects > Create project) or REST API (POST /rest/api/3/project).

For the full tool reference, see Atlassian MCP Integration. For JQL functions, see JQL Functions Reference. For report templates, see Reporting Templates.

Workflows

Project Creation

Project creation is not available via MCP — perform steps 2-6 in the Jira web UI (Projects > Create project) or via REST API (POST /rest/api/3/project). After creation, verify visibility with mcp__atlassian__getVisibleJiraProjects and inspect issue types with mcp__atlassian__getJiraProjectIssueTypesMetadata.

Determine project type (Scrum, Kanban, Bug Tracking, etc.)
Create project with appropriate template (web UI / REST)
Configure project settings:
- Name, key, description
- Project lead and default assignee
- Notification scheme
- Permission scheme
Set up issue types and workflows
Configure custom fields if needed
Create initial board/backlog view

What ships with it

6 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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-expert is a skill published in the GitHub repository mrDesign-ww/vault-os (2 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 66 tokens to every session and 3,087 once invoked, about $0.0003 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.
