Get work item

This skill always works with one specific work item ID.

  • If the user provides an ID (for example: "for 115770" or "work item 115770"), use that ID directly.
  • If the user does not provide an ID, prompt the user once to provide the work item ID.
  • If the ID is still not provided after prompting, stop and return a clear message stating that a work item ID is required and do not call any tools.

Tools

Use Azure DevOps MCP Server tools for all interactions with Azure DevOps.

  • wit_get_work_item: Get a work item from Azure DevOps by its ID.
  • wit_list_work_item_comments: Get the list of comments for a work item by its ID.
  • wit_get_work_items_batch_by_ids: Get work item details in batch by their IDs. Use this tool to get the details of linked work items, using the links returned from wit_get_work_item.

Steps

  1. Call wit_get_work_item with expand=all for the requested ID so that you retrieve fields, relations, and links in a single call.
