Install in OpenClaw
/install jira
Description
Read, search, draft, create, or update Jira work. Use only with explicit Jira or Atlassian context, a Jira URL, or a Jira-style issue key such as PROJ-123; generic mentions of an issue, ticket, sprint, or backlog are not sufficient.
Usage Guidance
Before installing, users should be comfortable granting the selected Jira connector or CLI access to Jira data. Review every displayed diff carefully before approving writes, especially bulk edits, comments, assignments, transitions, links, or sprint changes.
Capability Assessment
Credentials
Use of an authenticated connector or configured Jira CLI is proportionate to Jira operations, with safeguards against raw token curl fallback, unsafe shell interpolation, and credential exposure.
Install Mechanism
No executable install scripts or bundled code were present; setup guidance directs users to connect an authenticated integration or initialize a maintained Jira CLI locally without sharing credentials in chat.
Instruction Scope
Instructions limit activation to explicit Jira/Atlassian context, default to read-only, treat Jira content as untrusted, cap bulk batches at 10 issues, require exact diffs and action-time approval for writes, and prohibit unrelated follow-up actions.
Persistence & Privilege
The artifact does not install persistence, background services, hooks, or memory rules; CLI temporary files are limited to task-specific 0600 files that should be removed after use.
Purpose & Capability
The skill is explicitly for reading, searching, drafting, creating, and updating Jira work; Jira writes are high-impact business mutations, but they are purpose-aligned and governed by a bounded mutation contract.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install jira - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/jira - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
Version History
v1.4.0
Harden capability discovery, issue identity and scope, credential handling, and bounded approval-gated writes.
v1.3.3
Scanner hardening: make Jira env vars optional (REST fallback only) to align with multi-backend CLI/MCP design
v1.3.2
Scanner hardening: align _meta version, add provenance fields, remove local helper-path assumptions from docs
v1.3.1
Hardening correction: publish MCP docs without user-local helper-script path references
v1.3.0
Hardening pass: remove user-local helper-script path references from MCP docs and keep requirements consistent
v1.2.0
Fix suspicious flag: declare all required env vars (JIRA_API_TOKEN, JIRA_USER, JIRA_BASE_URL), fix reference to non-existent helper script
v1.1.0
Added structured openclaw metadata: jira binary + JIRA_API_TOKEN env requirement
v1.0.0
Initial release – manage Jira from the command line using jira-cli.
- Search, create, update, and transition Jira issues directly via terminal commands.
- Manage sprints, boards, epics, and projects with simple CLI options.
- Includes setup instructions and best practices for API token, configuration, and workflow.
- Supports custom output formats for scripting and automation.
- Adds safeguards—confirm changes with the user before creating, editing, or transitioning issues.
