Jira is a project management and issue tracking platform that enables teams to plan, track, and manage software development workflows, empowering agents to automate issue creation, workflow management, and team collaboration across projects.
Jira is Atlassian's flagship project management and issue tracking platform used by development teams worldwide to manage software development projects, track bugs, and organize work. It supports agile methodologies like Scrum and Kanban, providing comprehensive tools for sprint planning, backlog management, release tracking, and team collaboration. Jira is built on a flexible workflow engine that allows organizations to customize processes according to their specific needs, making it the industry standard for software development teams, IT service management, and business project tracking across various industries.
The Jira plugin within RUNSTACK provides agents with full access to Jira's REST API v3, enabling comprehensive project and issue management capabilities. Agents can create, update, and search issues across multiple projects, manage workflows and transitions, handle attachments and comments, and perform bulk operations. The plugin supports advanced JQL (Jira Query Language) searches for complex filtering, custom field management, and real-time webhook integration for event-driven automation. It includes capabilities for user management, permission handling, project configuration, and integration with other Atlassian products like Confluence and Bitbucket through unified authentication methods.
In RUNSTACK, the Jira plugin enables agents to function as automated project managers and development coordinators. Agents can automatically create issues from external triggers, track sprint progress, generate status reports, assign tasks based on team capacity, and enforce workflow rules. This is particularly valuable for software development teams, IT operations, and product management organizations where manual Jira administration can be time-consuming. The plugin allows RUNSTACK agents to handle routine project management tasks, provide real-time insights into team productivity, automate release management workflows, and ensure consistent process adherence—transforming Jira from a static tracking tool into an intelligent, proactive project management system that anticipates needs and optimizes team workflows autonomously.
