# Atlassian Jira Expert

Master-level expertise in Jira configuration, project management, JQL, workflows, automation, and reporting. Handles all technical and operational aspects of Jira.

## Quick Start — Most Common Operations

All MCP examples in this skill use the real Atlassian Remote MCP tools (camelCase, surfaced as `mcp__atlassian__<toolName>`). The canonical tool list is `project-management/references/atlassian-mcp-tools.md` — never invent tool names; if a capability isn't listed there, it is not available via MCP.

**Create an issue** (call `getAccessibleAtlassianResources` once first to obtain `cloudId`):
```
mcp__atlassian__createJiraIssue (cloudId, projectKey="MYPROJ", issueTypeName="Story", summary="My new story")
```

**Run a JQL query** (build the JQL from natural language with the bundled script, then execute):
```bash
python3 scripts/jql_query_builder.py "high priority bugs assigned to me"
# → emits validated JQL, e.g.: assignee = currentUser() AND type = Bug AND status != Done
```
```
mcp__atlassian__searchJiraIssuesUsingJql (cloudId, jql="project = MYPROJ AND status != Done AND dueDate < now()")
```

**Create a project**: NOT available via MCP. Use the Jira web UI (`Projects > Create project`) or REST API (`POST /rest/api/3/project`).

## Workflows

### Project Creation

> Project creation is **not available via MCP** — perform steps 2-6 in the Jira web UI (`Projects > Create project`) or via REST API (`POST /rest/api/3/project`). After creation, verify visibility with `mcp__atlassian__getVisibleJiraProjects` and inspect issue types with `mcp__atlassian__getJiraProjectIssueTypesMetadata`.

1. Determine project type (Scrum, Kanban, Bug Tracking, etc.)
2. Create project with appropriate template (web UI / REST)
3. Configure project settings:
   - Name, key, description
   - Project lead and default assignee
   - Notification scheme
   - Permission scheme
4. Set up issue types and workflows
5. Configure custom fields if needed
6. Create initial board/backlog view
7. **HANDOFF TO**: Scrum Master for team onboarding

### Workflow Design

> Workflow/scheme editing is **not available via MCP** — configure in `Jira Settings > Issues > Workflows`. Use the bundled validator to catch anti-patterns before deploying.

1. Map out process states (To Do → In Progress → Done)
2. Define transitions and conditions
3. Lint the design before building it in Jira:
   ```bash
   python3 scripts/workflow_validator.py workflow.json --format json
   ```
   Input: a JSON file with the workflow's `states` and `transitions`. Consume the output: fix every reported anti-pattern (dead-end states, unreachable states, missing transitions) in the design before touching Jira.
4. Add validators, post-functions, and conditions; configure the workflow scheme (web UI)
5. **Validate**: Deploy to a test project first; verify all transitions, conditions, and post-functions behave as expected before associating with production projects
6. Associate workflow with project
7. Test workflow with sample issues — via MCP: `mcp__atlassian__getTransitionsForJiraIssue` on a sample issue to confirm expected transitions surface, then `mcp__atlassian__transitionJiraIssue` to walk it through the flow

### JQL Query Building

**Start with the bundled builder** — it pattern-matches natural language to validated JQL:
```bash
python3 scripts/jql_query_bu
