jira-cli

Yup, I literally just hate their web UI. Once I found the Atlassian-blessed jira "cli" [0] (after searching for a long time for a tui, which is actually what the "cli" is primarily) I have actually be fine with using Jira again. As an added bonus, being a cli has made it easy to interface with using my AI tooling. [0] https://github.com/ankitpokhrel/jira-cli

Something else I want to add on to be more specific is that I use skills to document tasks that my model doesn't know how to do out of the box. For example, there is a jira cli[0] that I use for interfacing with jira. If I just say something like "add an issue for X on jira", the model will have no idea how to interface with jira. I could add that the jira cli is installed on my system, but it's not popular enough for the model I use to just know how to use the CLI, and it will end up spending a lot of tokens guessing how to use it, failing, reading the help output, trying again, etc. Adding a skill for jira lets me capture how to use the cli, and makes prompts like the original usually work first try. If something still requires the model to iterate with the cli, I will ask the model why it failed originally, and ask it to update the ski

Thankfully, there is a Jira CLI tool[1]. [1] https://github.com/ankitpokhrel/jira-cli/

I've recently been getting into building out skills for agentic coding. The two main ones I have built out are using the jira CLI[0] and the gitlab CLI[1]. Both work well for what I want to use them for (interacting with issues and with MRs). What have been the CLIs that you have found to be the most useful to use with agents? Have you found any that an agent has been able to compose in interesting ways? [0] https://github.com/ankitpokhrel/jira-cli [1] https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cli

https://github.com/ankitpokhrel/jira-cli just install this and have claude write a skill on how to use it. Its laughably simple to do. I havent touched the jira UI in months.

Hi there! I've been working on (and using) a command-line utility for Atlassian Jira for the past few months. The initial release is available now: https://github.com/ankitpokhrel/jira-cli/releases Project Link: https://github.com/ankitpokhrel/jira-cli Some of the features include: 1. Interactive mode + an option to easily integrate with shell/automation scripts using standard POSIX-complaint flags. 2. Easy search and navigation. For instance, you can easily search for something like "Issues that are of high priority, is in progress, was created this month, and has a label called backend" with `jira issue list -yHigh -s"In Progress" --created month -lbackend` 3. Create a neat Jira ticket (and comment) using Github-flavored + Jira-flavored markdown as a template. Supports pre-defined templates. 4. The ticket details are translated to markd
