Configuration Options

The jira-ai tool supports extensive configuration through settings files. You can define:

Allowed Jira projects
Allowed commands
Allowed Confluence spaces
Default behaviors for various operations

Example settings structure:

defaults:
  allowed-jira-projects:
    - all                     # Allow all projects
  allowed-commands:
    - all                     # Allow all commands
  allowed-confluence-spaces:
    - all                     # Allow all Confluence spaces

organizations:
  work:
    allowed-jira-projects:
      - PROJ                  # Allow specific project
      - key: PM               # Project-specific config
        commands:
          - issue.get         # Only allow reading issues
        filters:
          participated:
            was_assignee: true
    allowed-commands:
      - issue                 # All issue commands
      - project.list          # Only project list
      - user.me               # Only user me
    allowed-confluence-spaces:

Benefits

Efficient API Usage: Minimizes the number of API calls needed to perform common operations
Batch Operations: Process multiple items at once to reduce API usage
Smart Filtering: Use JQL to retrieve only the specific data needed
Local Processing: Handle operations locally before sending targeted requests to Jira
Configuration-Based Access Control: Define allowed commands and projects to prevent unauthorized operations
Specific Command Targeting: Get only the information needed, reducing payload sizes and API usage

Security Considerations

Store API tokens securely in environment files
Use configuration-based access controls to limit operations
Regularly rotate API tokens
Limit permissions to the minimum required for operations
