ACLI - Atlassian CLI for Jira

This skill enables efficient Jira ticket management using Atlassian's official acli command-line tool.

Read-only requests authorize inspection. Create, edit, assign, transition, link, comment, archive, and delete only within the user's requested operation and scope. For bulk writes, first inspect the exact matching keys; do not expand the JQL scope during mutation. Prefer --description-file, --body-file, or structured JSON for multiline content.

The examples were checked against ACLI 1.3.36-stable. Check the installed command's --help before applying a version-sensitive flag. Replace placeholders with actual values; link types must match the site's outward description.
