Override any default when the user specifies otherwise.

## Steps

1. **Gather inputs** — ask for anything not already provided:
   - Summary (required)
   - Issue type: `Task` or `Bug` (infer from context if obvious)
   - Description (optional but recommended)
   - Any overrides to the defaults above
1. **Confirm** — show a brief summary of what will be created and ask the user to confirm before proceeding.
1. **Create the ticket** using the Atlassian MCP `createJiraIssue` tool:

   ```yaml
   cloudId:       cognitedata.atlassian.net
   projectKey:    CDF
   issueTypeName: Task   (or Bug)
   summary:       <user-provided>
   description:   <user-provided, if any>
   parent:        CDF-28398
   contentFormat: markdown
   additional_fields:
     components:
       - name: velocity:tooling
   ```

1. **Report back** — share the new ticket key and URL so the user can open it directly.
   URL format: `https://cognitedata.atlassian.net/browse/<KEY>`
