Description
Use when the user mentions Jira issues (e.g., "PROJ-123"), asks about tickets, wants to create/view/update issues, check sprint status, or manage their Jira...
Usage Guidance
Install this only if you intend your agent to read and modify Jira data through the jira CLI or Atlassian MCP. Keep Jira API tokens in environment variables or the configured backend, avoid pasting tokens into chat, and review commands carefully before approving ticket creation, edits, transitions, comments, links, or bulk changes.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: jira
Version: 1.3.3
The skill is classified as suspicious due to its extensive use of shell command execution and direct network calls involving sensitive credentials, which present significant prompt injection vulnerabilities. Specifically, `SKILL.md` and `references/commands.md` instruct the agent to execute various `jira` CLI commands, often leveraging shell features like command substitution (`$(jira me)`) and temporary file creation (`cat > /tmp/jira_body.md`). Furthermore, `references/mcp.md` includes a `curl` command that directly uses `JIRA_USER`, `JIRA_API_TOKEN`, and `JIRA_BASE_URL` environment variables for API interaction. While these actions are intended for legitimate Jira operations, the broad access to shell and network with credentials creates a high-risk attack surface if the agent's instructions are subverted.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The skill consistently describes Jira issue, sprint, board, assignment, comment, transition, and linking workflows, and the documented CLI/MCP/REST capabilities match that purpose.
Instruction Scope
The trigger language includes generic words like issue, ticket, sprint, and backlog, which may activate more often than strictly necessary, but write actions are documented as requiring current-state checks and user approval.
Install Mechanism
No executable installer or bundled scripts are present; setup guidance points users to install the jira CLI or configure Atlassian MCP themselves.
Credentials
Optional Jira REST fallback uses JIRA_USER, JIRA_API_TOKEN, and JIRA_BASE_URL environment variables, which is proportionate for Jira API access but should be handled carefully.
Persistence & Privilege
The artifact contains markdown and metadata only, with no background worker, persistence mechanism, privilege escalation, or hidden local indexing.
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
v1.3.3
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

- 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.
