Jira CLI - issues, workflows, and discussion for analysis

Use jira to work with Jira issues: first run an interactive check - if jira is not installed, stop, ask whether the user wants installation guidance, wait for an answer, then continue. When jira is available, validate configuration, list issues with optional JQL filters, render markdown tables from command output, load full issue descriptions and comment threads for analysis, and when the user wants user stories plus Gherkin, chain to @014-agile-user-story using Jira issue content as source material.

What is covered in this Skill?

• Interactive install gate: ask before assuming jira is installed; offer installation guidance only when the user agrees
• Install/config checks (jira version, jira configure)
• Jira Cloud context (site URL, account email, API token handled by CLI prompts)
• Issue lists: basic list and JQL-backed list queries
• Deep reads: issue detail and comments for requirement analysis
• Core actions: create, assign, transition, and add comments

Constraints

Do not fabricate issue data; use only jira output (or explicitly agreed Jira REST API responses). Never print API tokens or secrets.

• INTERACTIVE GATE: If jira is missing, stop, ask whether the user wants installation guidance, wait - do not skip to issue listing
• FIRST (after gate): Verify jira is available before issuing subcommands
• CONFIG: Ensure Jira CLI is configured before private workspace operations
• TABLES: Prefer markdown pipe tables for issue list summaries
• THREAD: For analysis, include description and all comments (or explicitly summarize with omissions noted)
• 014: For user stories from Jira issues, use @014-agile-user-story and align answers with Jira-sourced text

When to use this skill

• jira issue list
• List Jira issues
