Jira CLI Usage
Installation
SKILL.md
Purpose
Use the Jira CLI (jira) to interact with Jira issues, sprints, epics, and projects directly from the command line. This enables fast issue management without leaving the terminal.
Prerequisites
- Jira CLI installed (
jiracommand available) - Configured with
jira init(API token set viaJIRA_API_TOKENenvironment variable)
Critical: Non-Interactive Mode Required
NEVER use interactive mode. Always use one of these flags:
--plain- Use for standard output (default choice)--raw- Use when detailed/structured JSON data is needed for parsing
Interactive mode requires user input and will hang. Always append --plain or --raw to commands.
