Atlassian CLI (acli) reference for Jira work items — create, sub-task, link, view, JQL search, transition.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Jira CLI (acli)

This SKILL.md is a thin index — Read the relevant `references/*.md` on demand, never all up front. Reference for Atlassian's `acli`, used by `/orc:jira`, the Jira-link prompts in `/orc:plan|debug|flow`, and `/orc:ship`'s `Resolves <KEY>` trailer. **Verified version:** acli 1.3.18-stable (2026-05-02).

## Iron rule: ADF JSON for rich bodies on Jira Cloud

Jira Cloud stores rich-text fields (descriptions, comments) as **ADF JSON** — it renders neither Markdown nor wiki markup; `**bold**` and `h3. Title` arrive as literal characters. A bare `--summary` / one-paragraph `--description` string is fine (acli wraps it); anything richer — headings, lists, tables, code blocks, links — is ADF or nothing, passed via `--description-file ./body.adf.json`. Renaming a `.md` file to `.json` does not make it ADF. Full skeleton, node cheatsheet, and invariants: [ADF.md](references/ADF.md).

## Auth pre-flight

`acli jira auth status` must exit 0 before any mutating command; on failure re-run `acli jira auth login --web` — never debug a 401. Install + token/CI auth flows: [SETUP.md](references/SETUP.md).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add higoralves/orc/jira-cli@sha256:6bb15343cc5aab0a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261020.7a1f356, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
