Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| jira_health_checkA | Test the Jira connection. Returns authenticated account info (display name, email, account ID) and Jira server version/deployment type. Run first to verify credentials and connectivity. |
| search_issuesA | Search Jira issues using JQL (Jira Query Language). Returns key, summary, status, type, priority, assignee, reporter, created/updated dates and labels. Use for finding security incidents, open vulnerabilities, or tracking remediation tasks. Examples: |
| get_issueA | Get full details of a single Jira issue by key (e.g. SEC-123). Returns description, all comments, status, priority, assignee, reporter, labels, and timestamps. Use after search_issues to inspect a specific issue in depth. |
| create_issueA | Create a new Jira issue. Use to file security incidents, vulnerabilities, or remediation tasks. Returns the new issue key and URL. Common issue types: Task, Bug, Story, Incident, Security Incident (depends on project configuration). |
| update_issueA | Update fields of an existing Jira issue (summary, description, priority, labels). Use to enrich a security incident with investigation findings. To change status, use transition_issue instead. |
| add_commentA | Add a comment to a Jira issue. Use to record investigation steps, evidence, findings, or remediation actions directly on the ticket. Preserves the full audit trail of the security response. |
| list_transitionsA | List all available status transitions for a Jira issue. Returns transition IDs and target status names. Use before transition_issue to find the correct transition ID (e.g. "In Progress", "Resolved", "Closed"). |
| transition_issueA | Move a Jira issue to a new status using a transition ID. Use list_transitions first to discover available transition IDs. Optionally attach a comment explaining the status change (e.g. "Closed: investigation complete, no compromise confirmed"). |
| list_projectsA | List all accessible Jira projects with their keys, names, and types. Use to find the correct project key before creating issues or running JQL queries scoped to a specific project. |
