jira

jira is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from odyssey4me/agent-skills. It costs 48 tokens per session (2,419 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A tool for working with Jira, a system for tracking software issues, bugs, projects, and work items. It supports searching with JQL, Jira’s query language, and managing tickets and workflows.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to search tickets and backlogs, check bugs, manage sprints, create or update issues, change workflow status, and verify Jira setup.
Why use it?
It removes repetitive manual work when finding, updating, and organizing Jira issues. It also checks whether the required software, login details, and Jira connection are configured.

SkillSpector: 2 findings, up to high

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • high Privilege Escalation · line 22
    Code accesses credential files (SSH keys, AWS credentials, etc.). This could indicate credential theft attempts.
    Fix: Remove references to credential paths. Use environment variables or secrets managers. For docs, use placeholder paths (e.g., /path/to/config). Never load .env or token files in production code paths.
  • medium Rogue Agent · line 58
    Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.
    Fix: Remove any persistence mechanisms (cron jobs, startup scripts, state files). Skills should not maintain state across sessions without explicit user consent.

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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/jira.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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 279 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Jira

Interact with Jira for issue tracking, search, and workflow management.

Resolving script paths

SKILL_DIR in the examples is the directory containing this loaded SKILL.md. Set it to that absolute path before running commands; do not assume the agent sets this shell variable. Quote the script path if it contains spaces.

Installation

  1. Install Python dependencies:

    pip install --user requests keyring pyyaml pyadf
    
  2. Download the skill from Releases or use directly from this repository.

Setup Verification

After installation, verify the skill configuration by running:

$SKILL_DIR/scripts/jira.py check

This will check:

  • Python dependencies (requests, keyring, pyyaml, pyadf)
  • Authentication configuration
  • Connectivity to Jira

If anything is missing, the check command will provide setup instructions.

Network access

Jira API commands require outbound HTTPS to the configured Jira host. Remote operations require outbound network access. If the agent environment restricts it, obtain access through that environment's approval or network controls before the first remote command, reusing authorization already granted. Local help and file processing do not need network access. Skill instructions do not grant network permission. Report DNS, connection, and timeout failures as network errors; do not reset credentials to resolve them. If approved access also fails, stop and report it. Authentication and permission errors require user action.

Authentication

This skill supports Jira Cloud only.

Configure Jira authentication using one of these methods:

Option 1: Environment Variables (Recommended)

export JIRA_BASE_URL="https://yourcompany.atlassian.net"
export JIRA_EMAIL="[email protected]"
export JIRA_API_TOKEN="your-token"

Add these to your ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc for persistence.

Option 2: Config File

Create ~/.config/agent-skills/jira.yaml:

Files

What ships with it

7 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.
