Can I update story points using this Claude skill?

Yes. While some MCP tools have numeric serialization bugs, this skill provides fallback patterns using the Jira REST API via curl to reliably set story points and custom numeric fields.

How does this skill handle Jira's wiki markup formatting?

The skill utilizes MCP ATL tools to automatically convert standard Markdown into Jira Wiki format. It also supports specialized panel templates for structured issue descriptions.

What authentication is required for this Jira skill?

The skill requires three environment variables: JIRA_URL (your instance base URL), JIRA_EMAIL (your user account), and JIRA_API_TOKEN for secure authentication.

Does it support multiple Jira projects?

Yes, it supports flexible project keys. While it defaults to the DEVX project, it can recognize and normalize issue keys from any project in the format PROJ-123.
