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-syntax 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 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/validate_jira_syntax.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 — 135 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Jira wiki markup

Jira uses its own wiki notation that differs from Markdown in every formatting construct. Agents default to Markdown. Mixing the two produces broken rendering in Jira. This skill ensures correct output.

Running scripts bundled with this skill

Script paths in this document (e.g. scripts/) are resolved relative to this SKILL.md file, not to your current working directory. If a relative command fails to resolve, prefix it with the path your platform loaded this SKILL.md from.

Fallback. If python3 cannot be located, analyze the script's purpose and logic and execute its intent with available tools, but warn the user that python is not available and the logic was executed with a fallback approach that may not be perfect.

Markdown-to-Jira conversion table

These substitutions are mandatory when targeting Jira:

Concept Jira wiki markup NOT Markdown
Heading h2. Title ## Title
Bold *bold* **bold**
Italic _italic_ *italic*
Inline code {{code}} `code`
Code block {code:java}...{code} ```java ```
Link [text|url] [text](url)
Issue link [PROJ-123] n/a
User mention [~username] @username
Bullet list * item - item
Numbered list # item 1. item
Table header ||Header|| |Header|

Read references/syntax-reference.md for the complete notation including panels, colors, nested lists, and special blocks.

Conversion examples

Example 1 (bug comment with code):

Input (Markdown):

## Root cause

The `processData()` function throws when **input is null**.

- Missing null check on line 45
- Related: see issue #123

Output (Jira wiki markup):

h2. Root cause

The {{processData()}} function throws when *input is null*.

* Missing null check on line 45
* Related: see [PROJ-123]

Example 2 (status update with table):

Input (Markdown):

### Sprint progress

| Task | Status | Owner |
|------|--------|-------|
| Auth module | Done | @john |
| API docs | In progress | @jane |

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.
