Delete Jira resources. Returns TOON format by default.

Output format: TOON (default) or JSON (outputFormat: "json")

Common operations:

1. Delete issue: /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey} Query param: deleteSubtasks=true to delete subtasks

2. Delete comment: /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/comment/{commentId}

3. Delete worklog: /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/worklog/{worklogId}

4. Delete attachment: /rest/api/3/attachment/{attachmentId}

5. Remove watcher: /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/watchers Query param: accountId={accountId}

Note: Most DELETE endpoints return 204 No Content on success.

Read any Jira data. Returns TOON format by default (30-60% fewer tokens than JSON).

IMPORTANT - Cost Optimization:

• ALWAYS use jq param to filter response fields. Unfiltered responses are very expensive!
• Use maxResults query param to restrict result count (e.g., maxResults: "5")
• If unsure about available fields, first fetch ONE item with maxResults: "1" and NO jq filter to explore the schema, then use jq in subsequent calls

Schema Discovery Pattern:

1. First call: path: "/rest/api/3/search/jql", queryParams: {"maxResults": "1", "jql": "project=PROJ"} (no jq) - explore available fields
2. Then use: jq: "issues[*].{key: key, summary: fields.summary, status: fields.status.name}" - extract only what you need

Output format: TOON (default, token-efficient) or JSON (outputFormat: "json")

Common paths:

• /rest/api/3/project - list all projects
• /rest/api/3/project/{projectKeyOrId} - get project details
• /rest/api/3/search/jql - search issues with JQL (use jql query param). NOTE: /rest/api/3/search is deprecated!
• /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey} - get issue details
• /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/comment - list issue comments
• /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/worklog - list issue worklogs
• /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/transitions - get available transitions
• /rest/api/3/user/search - search users (use query param)
• /rest/api/3/status - list all statuses
• /rest/api/3/issuetype - list issue types
• /rest/api/3/priority - list priorities

JQ examples: issues[*].key, issues[0], issues[*].{key: key, summary: fields.summary}

Example JQL queries: project=PROJ, assignee=currentUser(), status="In Progress", created >= -7d

Partially update Jira resources. Returns TOON format by default.

IMPORTANT - Cost Optimization: Use jq param to filter response fields.

Output format: TOON (default) or JSON (outputFormat: "json")

Common operations:

1. Update issue fields: /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey} body: {"fields": {"summary": "Updated title"}} (only updates specified fields)

2. Update comment: /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/comment/{commentId} body: {"body": {"type": "doc", "version": 1, "content": [{"type": "paragraph", "content": [{"type": "text", "text": "Updated comment"}]}]}}

3. Update worklog: /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/worklog/{worklogId} body: {"timeSpentSeconds": 7200}

Note: PATCH only updates the fields you specify, leaving others unchanged.

Create Jira resources. Returns TOON format by default (token-efficient).

IMPORTANT - Cost Optimization:

• Use jq param to extract only needed fields from response (e.g., jq: "{key: key, id: id}")
• Unfiltered responses include all metadata and are expensive!

Output format: TOON (default) or JSON (outputFormat: "json")

Common operations:

1. Create issue: /rest/api/3/issue body: {"fields": {"project": {"key": "PROJ"}, "summary": "Issue title", "issuetype": {"name": "Task"}, "description": {"type": "doc", "version": 1, "content": [{"type": "paragraph", "content": [{"type": "text", "text": "Description"}]}]}}}

2. Add comment: /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/comment body: {"body": {"type": "doc", "version": 1, "content": [{"type": "paragraph", "content": [{"type": "text", "text": "Comment text"}]}]}}

3. Add worklog: /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/worklog body: {"timeSpentSeconds": 3600, "comment": {"type": "doc", "version": 1, "content": [{"type": "paragraph", "content": [{"type": "text", "text": "Work done"}]}]}}

4. Transition issue: /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/transitions body: {"transition": {"id": "31"}}

5. Add attachment: /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/attachments Note: Requires multipart form data (complex - use Jira UI for attachments)

Replace Jira resources (full update). Returns TOON format by default.

IMPORTANT - Cost Optimization: Use jq param to extract only needed fields from response

Output format: TOON (default) or JSON (outputFormat: "json")

Common operations:

1. Update issue (full): /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey} body: {"fields": {"summary": "New title", "description": {...}, "assignee": {"accountId": "..."}}}

2. Update project: /rest/api/3/project/{projectIdOrKey} body: {"name": "New Project Name", "description": "Updated description"}

3. Set issue property: /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/properties/{propertyKey} body: {"value": "property value"}

Note: PUT replaces the entire resource. For partial updates, prefer PATCH.
