What it does
Jira Cloud — list projects, get project metadata (issue types, statuses, components, versions), search issues with JQL, fetch issue details with description and recent comments, list workflow transitions, create and update issues (Markdown → ADF auto-converted), transition to a new status with optional comment, add comments, and list attachments. Use when the user mentions Jira, issue, ticket, JQL, sprint, epic, story, bug, transition, In Progress / Done, or wants to triage / file / move work in Jira.
The Jira skill is one of 75+ pre-wired Syncore integrations that any MCP-compatible client — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Codex CLI, and ChatGPT desktop — can call out of the box. You don't configure MCP servers or copy API keys into a JSON file; the Syncore daemon discovers the skill at startup and exposes its tools to whichever AI client is running.
Sample prompts
Once Syncore is installed and Jira is connected, ask your agent something like:
- “List projects from Jira.”
- “Get project from Jira.”
- “Search for issues from Jira.”
