What it does

Wraps the jira CLI to give CodeBuddy access to your Atlassian Jira instance. The agent can create issues, manage sprints, search with JQL, and link code changes to tickets.

Prerequisites

Install the Jira CLI:

# macOS
brew install ankitpokhrel/jira-cli/jira-cli

# Linux / Windows
go install github.com/ankitpokhrel/jira-cli/cmd/jira@latest

Then initialize:

jira init

This prompts for your Jira base URL, email, and API token. You can also set environment variables:

export JIRA_API_TOKEN="your-api-token"
export JIRA_BASE_URL="https://your-org.atlassian.net"

Capabilities

• Issues — create, update, assign, transition, comment
• Sprints — list, manage, add/remove issues
• Search — JQL queries, filters
• Boards — list, view backlog, active sprint
• Time tracking — log work, view time spent

Example prompts

• “Create a Jira story in the AUTH sprint for implementing password reset”
• “Show me all unresolved bugs assigned to me”
• “Move PROJ-123 to ‘In Review’ and add a comment with the PR link”
• “What’s in the current sprint backlog?”
