Jira Automation V2

Jira Automation via Rube MCP

Overview

This public intake copy packages plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills/skills/jira-automation from https://github.com/sickn33/antigravity-awesome-skills into the native Omni Skills editorial shape without hiding its origin.

Use it when the operator needs the upstream workflow, support files, and repository context to stay intact while the public validator and private enhancer continue their normal downstream flow.

This intake keeps the copied upstream files intact and uses the external_source block in metadata.json plus ORIGIN.md as the provenance anchor for review.

Jira Automation via Rube MCP Automate Jira operations through Composio's Jira toolkit via Rube MCP.

Imported source sections that did not map cleanly to the public headings are still preserved below or in the support files. Notable imported sections: Prerequisites, Common Patterns, Known Pitfalls, Limitations.

When to Use This Skill

Use this section as the trigger filter. It should make the activation boundary explicit before the operator loads files, runs commands, or opens a pull request.

• This skill is applicable to execute the workflow or actions described in the overview.
• Use when the request clearly matches the imported source intent: Automate Jira tasks via Rube MCP (Composio): issues, projects, sprints, boards, comments, users. Always search tools first for current schemas.
• Use when the operator should preserve upstream workflow detail instead of rewriting the process from scratch.
• Use when provenance needs to stay visible in the answer, PR, or review packet.
• Use when copied upstream references, examples, or scripts materially improve the answer.
• Use when the workflow should remain reviewable in the public intake repo before the private enhancer takes over.

Operating Table

Workflow

This workflow is intentionally editorial and operational at the same time. It keeps the imported source useful to the operator while still satisfying the public intake standards that feed the downstream enhancer flow.

1. Verify Rube MCP is available by confirming RUBESEARCHTOOLS responds
2. Call RUBEMANAGECONNECTIONS with toolkit jira
3. If connection is not ACTIVE, follow the returned auth link to complete Jira OAuth
4. Confirm connection status shows ACTIVE before running any workflows
5. JIRASEARCHFORISSUESUSINGJQLPOST - Search with JQL query [Required]
6. JIRAGETISSUE - Get full details of a specific issue [Optional]
7. jql: JQL query string (e.g., project = PROJ AND status = "In Progress")

Imported: Core Workflows

1. Search and Filter Issues

When to use: User wants to find issues using JQL or browse project issues

Tool sequence:

1. JIRA_SEARCH_FOR_ISSUES_USING_JQL_POST - Search with JQL query [Required]
2. JIRA_GET_ISSUE - Get full details of a specific issue [Optional]

Key parameters:

• jql: JQL query string (e.g., project = PROJ AND status = "In Progress")
• maxResults: Max results per page (default 50, max 100)
• startAt: Pagination offset
• fields: Array of field names to return
• issueIdOrKey: Issue key like 'PROJ-123' for GET_ISSUE

Pitfalls:

• JQL field names are case-sensitive and must match Jira configuration
• Custom fields use IDs like customfield_10001, not display names
• Results are paginated; check total vs startAt + maxResults to continue

2. Create and Edit Issues

When to use: User wants to create new issues or update existing ones

Tool sequence:

1. JIRA_GET_ALL_PROJECTS - List projects to find project key [Prerequisite]
2. JIRA_GET_FIELDS - Get available fields and their IDs [Prerequisite]
3. JIRA_CREATE_ISSUE - Create a new issue [Required]
4. JIRA_EDIT_ISSUE - Update fields on an existing issue [Optional]
5. JIRA_ASSIGN_ISSUE - Assign issue to a user [Optional]

Key parameters:

• project: Project key (e.g., 'PROJ')
• issuetype: Issue type name (e.g., 'Bug', 'Story', 'Task')
• summary: Issue title
• description: Issue description (Atlassian Document Format or plain text)
• issueIdOrKey: Issue key for edits

Pitfalls:

• Issue types and required fields vary by project; use GET_FIELDS to check
• Custom fields require exact field IDs, not display names
• Description may need Atlassian Document Format (ADF) for rich content

3. Manage Sprints and Boards

When to use: User wants to work with agile boards, sprints, and backlogs

Tool sequence:

1. JIRA_LIST_BOARDS - List all boards [Prerequisite]
2. JIRA_LIST_SPRINTS - List sprints for a board [Required]
3. JIRA_MOVE_ISSUE_TO_SPRINT - Move issue to a sprint [Optional]
4. JIRA_CREATE_SPRINT - Create a new sprint [Optional]

Key parameters:

• boardId: Board ID from LIST_BOARDS
• sprintId: Sprint ID for move operations
• name: Sprint name for creation
• startDate/endDate: Sprint dates in ISO format

Pitfalls:

• Boards and sprints are specific to Jira Software (not Jira Core)
• Only one sprint can be active at a time per board

4. Manage Comments

When to use: User wants to add or view comments on issues

Tool sequence:

1. JIRA_LIST_ISSUE_COMMENTS - List existing comments [Optional]
2. JIRA_ADD_COMMENT - Add a comment to an issue [Required]

Key parameters:

• issueIdOrKey: Issue key like 'PROJ-123'
• body: Comment body (supports ADF for rich text)

Pitfalls:

• Comments support ADF (Atlassian Document Format) for formatting
• Mentions use account IDs, not usernames

5. JIRA_ADD_USERS_TO_PROJECT_ROLE - Add user to role [Optional]

Key parameters:

• projectIdOrKey: Project key
• query: Search text for FIND_USERS
• roleId: Role ID for role operations

Pitfalls:

• User operations use account IDs (not email or display name)
• Project roles differ from global permissions

Imported: Prerequisites

• Rube MCP must be connected (RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS available)
• Active Jira connection via RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit jira
• Always call RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS first to get current tool schemas

Examples

Example 1: Ask for the upstream workflow directly

Use @jira-automation-v2 to handle <task>. Start from the copied upstream workflow, load only the files that change the outcome, and keep provenance visible in the answer.

Explanation: This is the safest starting point when the operator needs the imported workflow, but not the entire repository.

Example 2: Ask for a provenance-grounded review

Review @jira-automation-v2 against metadata.json and ORIGIN.md, then explain which copied upstream files you would load first and why.

Explanation: Use this before review or troubleshooting when you need a precise, auditable explanation of origin and file selection.

Example 3: Narrow the copied support files before execution

Use @jira-automation-v2 for <task>. Load only the copied references, examples, or scripts that change the outcome, and name the files explicitly before proceeding.

Explanation: This keeps the skill aligned with progressive disclosure instead of loading the whole copied package by default.

Example 4: Build a reviewer packet

Review @jira-automation-v2 using the copied upstream files plus provenance, then summarize any gaps before merge.

Explanation: This is useful when the PR is waiting for human review and you want a repeatable audit packet.

Best Practices

Treat the generated public skill as a reviewable packaging layer around the upstream repository. The goal is to keep provenance explicit and load only the copied source material that materially improves execution.

• Keep the imported skill grounded in the upstream repository; do not invent steps that the source material cannot support.
• Prefer the smallest useful set of support files so the workflow stays auditable and fast to review.
• Keep provenance, source commit, and imported file paths visible in notes and PR descriptions.
• Point directly at the copied upstream files that justify the workflow instead of relying on generic review boilerplate.
• Treat generated examples as scaffolding; adapt them to the concrete task before execution.
• Route to a stronger native skill when architecture, debugging, design, or security concerns become dominant.

Troubleshooting

Problem: The operator skipped the imported context and answered too generically

Symptoms: The result ignores the upstream workflow in plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills/skills/jira-automation, fails to mention provenance, or does not use any copied source files at all. Solution: Re-open metadata.json, ORIGIN.md, and the most relevant copied upstream files. Check the external_source block first, then restate the provenance before continuing.

Problem: The imported workflow feels incomplete during review

Symptoms: Reviewers can see the generated SKILL.md, but they cannot quickly tell which references, examples, or scripts matter for the current task. Solution: Point at the exact copied references, examples, scripts, or assets that justify the path you took. If the gap is still real, record it in the PR instead of hiding it.

Problem: The task drifted into a different specialization

Symptoms: The imported skill starts in the right place, but the work turns into debugging, architecture, design, security, or release orchestration that a native skill handles better. Solution: Use the related skills section to hand off deliberately. Keep the imported provenance visible so the next skill inherits the right context instead of starting blind.

Imported Reference Notes

Imported: Quick Reference

Imported: Common Patterns

JQL Syntax

Common operators:

• project = "PROJ" - Filter by project
• status = "In Progress" - Filter by status
• assignee = currentUser() - Current user's issues
• created >= -7d - Created in last 7 days
• labels = "bug" - Filter by label
• priority = High - Filter by priority
• ORDER BY created DESC - Sort results

Combinators:

• AND - Both conditions
• OR - Either condition
• NOT - Negate condition

Pagination

• Use startAt and maxResults parameters
• Check total in response to determine remaining pages
• Continue until startAt + maxResults >= total

Imported: Known Pitfalls

Field Names:

• Custom fields use IDs like customfield_10001
• Use JIRA_GET_FIELDS to discover field IDs and names
• Field names in JQL may differ from API field names

Authentication:

• Jira Cloud uses account IDs, not usernames
• Site URL must be configured correctly in the connection

Imported: Limitations

• Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
• Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
• Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
