    Conditional support

    • Jira → Jira Structure: requires the Structure plugin to be installed and accessible.

    Issue Tracker Tools

    Providers: GitHub, GitLab, ClickUp, Jira.

    add_issue_comment

    Add a comment to an issue with optional file attachments (ClickUp only).

    ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
    bodystring✅Comment text
    keystring✅Issue key
    attachmentsarray<string>—File attachments (ClickUp only, max 10MB per file). Each: {fileData: base64, filename: string}

    assign_to_sprint

    Move one or more issues onto a Jira sprint. Pair with get_board_sprints to look up the numeric sprintId. Issues already on a sprint are silently moved.

    ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
    issueKeysarray<string>✅Issue keys to move onto the sprint. Must contain at least one key.
    sprintIdinteger✅Numeric sprint id. Use get_board_sprints to discover ids on a board. Min: 0

    create_issue

    Create a new issue in the configured provider.

    ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
    titlestring✅Issue title
    assigneesarray<string>—Assignee usernames
    descriptionstring—Issue description/body
    issueTypestring—Issue type (e.g., "Task", "Bug", "Story"). Default: "Task". Removed by providers that don't support it.

    projectIdstring—Jira project key (not numeric ID) for issue creation (e.g., "PROJ"). Optional — overrides the default project.

    delete_asset

    Delete a file attachment from an issue. Not all providers support this — check asset_capabilities first.

    ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
    asset_idstring✅Asset identifier to delete
    keystring✅Issue key (e.g. 'PROJ-123')

    download_asset

    Download a file attachment to local cache. Returns local file path when cache is available, base64-encoded content as fallback.

    ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
    asset_idstring✅Asset identifier from get_assets response
    context_typestring✅Context type: 'issue' or 'mr'. Allowed values: issue, mr
    keystring✅Issue key or MR key

    get_available_statuses

    Get available statuses for the issue tracker.

    No parameters.

    List sprints visible on a Jira agile board. Use to discover the numeric sprintId accepted by create_issue / update_issue and assign_to_sprint. Returns name, state (active/future/closed), planned start/end, and goal — enough for the agent to pick the right sprint without a follow-up call.

    ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
    boardIdinteger✅Numeric Jira board id. The Agile / Boards REST endpoint returns sprints scoped to one board — there is no global sprint list. Min: 0
    statestring—Filter by sprint state. Default all returns every sprint on the board. Allowed values: active, future, closed, all

    get_custom_fields

    List custom fields available on the issue tracker, with their id, name, and field type. Use to discover the customfield_* id of a Jira instance — names like Epic Link, Sprint, Epic Name map to different ids on every deployment. Pair with customFields: { "<id>": <value> } on create_issue / update_issue for fields not yet exposed as first-class params.

    ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
    issueTypestring—Optional issue type. Reserved for providers that scope custom fields per create-screen context.
    limitinteger—Max fields to return after filtering (default 50). Sorted by name asc. Range: 1 – 200

    Link two issues together (blocks, relates_to, etc.).

    ParameterTypeRequiredDescription

The *_by variants flip direction. Custom link types configured on the instance also work — pass the exact name. GitHub/GitLab providers ignore this field.

    targetIssueKeystring✅Target issue key

    list_project_versions

    List Jira project versions / fixVersion targets (releases). Returns rich per-version payload (description, dates, released/archived flags, optional issue counts). Default filter hides archived versions and limits to 20 most recent (unreleased first, then released by releaseDate desc). For issue-level details on a release, follow up with get_issues and a JQL nativeQuery such as fixVersion = "<name>" — there is no per-id get tool by design.

    Context Management Tools

    Always-on tools attached to every tools/list response, independent of which providers are configured. They let the agent inspect or switch the active context.

    list_contexts

    List configured contexts and indicate the active context.

    No parameters.

    use_context

    Switch active context at runtime.

    ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
    namestring✅Context name to activate

    get_current_context

    Get current active context name.

    No parameters.

    List secrets the active context's manifest declares. Returns metadata only — values are never included. Optional filter narrows by path substring, scope, status, or whether to include framework-internal paths.

    ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
    include_internalboolean—Include framework-internal paths (default: false).
    path_containsstring—Substring to match against the full ADR-020 path.
    scopestring—Exact match against the first path segment (e.g. team / personal).
    statusstring—Lifecycle status filter computed from expires_at.. Allowed values: registered, expiring, expired

    secrets_describe

    Describe one secret by ADR-020 path. Returns the same metadata fields as secrets_list plus description, retrieval URL, rotation method, last rotated date, rotation cadence, and pattern ID. The value is never returned.

    ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
    pathstring✅Full ADR-020 path to describe.

    secrets_request_provision

    Open the provisioning UI dialog for the given ADR-020 path. The dialog hands the user-entered value directly to the local daemon — the agent never sees it. Returns a request_id that can be polled with secrets_poll_status. Mode defaults to provision; pass rotation to surface the destructive-confirm checkbox. Pending requests expire 5 minutes after issuance.

    ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
    pathstring✅Full ADR-020 path to provision.
    modestring—Dialog mode (default: provision).. Allowed values: provision, rotation

    secrets_poll_status

    Poll a provisioning or rotation request issued by secrets_request_provision / secrets_request_rotation. Returns one of pending / ok / cancelled / expired / failed plus the request's age in seconds and the path it was opened for.

    ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
    request_idstring✅Opaque id returned by request_provision / request_rotation.

    secrets_request_rotation

    Open the rotation UI dialog for the given ADR-020 path. Same lifecycle as secrets_request_provision but the dialog surfaces the destructive-confirm checkbox so the user explicitly acknowledges that the existing value is being overwritten. Reuses secrets_poll_status for status. Pending requests expire 5 minutes after issuance.

    ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
    pathstring✅Full ADR-020 path to rotate.

    secrets_request_use_approval

    Open the use-approval dialog for an ADR-020 path whose approve_on_use is set to session or per-call. The agent supplies a short human-facing reason that the dialog renders verbatim alongside the path; the user picks once, session, or denied. Returns a request_id to poll via secrets_poll_status. Pending requests expire 5 minutes after issuance; ttl_seconds may shorten the window but never extend it. The agent never sees the secret — only whether the user approved its use.

    ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
    pathstring✅Full ADR-020 path the agent intends to resolve.
    reasonstring✅Short human-facing reason rendered in the dialog (e.g. 'pushing image to staging registry').
    ttl_secondsinteger—Optional lifetime in seconds; capped at the registry-wide TTL (5 minutes).

    secrets_propose_metadata

    Suggest metadata edits for an existing ADR-020 path. The dialog renders the manifest's current values as the diff baseline (read straight from the index — agent strings never replace trusted fields, mitigating prompt-injection). The user picks which proposed fields to accept. Reuses secrets_poll_status for status. Pending requests expire 5 minutes after issuance.

    ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
    fieldsobject✅Proposed field overrides (description, retrieval_url, rotate_every_days, expires_at, pattern_id). Omitted fields are not proposed for change.
