# 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 (`

Where does this skill come from?
From alirezarezvani/claude-skills, a repository with 23,791 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
