jira-openclaw（Jira OpenClaw 搜索）

Jira + OpenClaw Integration

Connect your OpenClaw agent to Jira Cloud. Secrets never reach the LLM — pastewatch redacts credentials in transit.

Requires: pastewatch-cli (MCP server running), curl, python3

1. Credential Setup

mkdir -p ~/.openclaw/workspace/.secrets
chmod 700 ~/.openclaw/workspace/.secrets
echo ".secrets/" >> ~/.openclaw/workspace/.gitignore

cat > ~/.openclaw/workspace/.secrets/jira.env << 'EOF'
JIRA_TOKEN=<your-api-token-or-pat>
JIRA_URL=https://your-org.atlassian.net/
JIRA_EMAIL=your@email.com
EOF
chmod 600 ~/.openclaw/workspace/.secrets/jira.env

Token types:

• API token (id.atlassian.com → Security → API tokens) — works with Basic auth
• PAT (ATATT... prefix, Jira settings → Personal Access Tokens) — also works with Basic auth (email:PAT)

Both use the same script below. Bearer auth is NOT needed.

2. API Helper Script

Create ~/.openclaw/workspace/.secrets/jira.sh:

#!/bin/bash
set -euo pipefail
SCRIPT_DIR="$(cd "$(dirname "$0")" && pwd)"
source "$SCRIPT_DIR/jira.env"

METHOD="${1:?Usage: jira.sh <METHOD> <endpoint> [body]}"
ENDPOINT="${2:?Usage: jira.sh <METHOD> <endpoint> [body]}"
BODY="${3:-}"
URL="${JIRA_URL%/}${ENDPOINT}"

if [ -n "$BODY" ]; then
  curl -s --http1.1 -X "$METHOD" \
    -u "${JIRA_EMAIL}:${JIRA_TOKEN}" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -d "$BODY" "$URL"
else
  curl -s --http1.1 -X "$METHOD" \
    -u "${JIRA_EMAIL}:${JIRA_TOKEN}" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" "$URL"
fi

chmod +x ~/.openclaw/workspace/.secrets/jira.sh

Why --http1.1: Atlassian's CDN sometimes breaks HTTP/2 with curl. Force HTTP/1.1.

3. Verify

# Test auth (pipe through pastewatch to confirm redaction)
~/.openclaw/workspace/.secrets/jira.sh GET '/rest/api/3/myself' | pastewatch-cli scan

You should see your displayName with emails/URLs redacted.

4. Pastewatch Protection

The agent reads jira.env through pastewatch MCP — it sees __PW{CREDENTIAL_1}__ instead of the real token. The script runs credentials at the shell level (never in LLM context).

Agent calls exec → jira.sh sources .env → curl sends real token → response comes back
                    ↑ never in context      ↑ direct to Atlassian

Pair with chainwatch to control which Jira endpoints the agent can hit.

5. Key API Patterns

Search (⚠️ use /search/jql NOT /search)

# /rest/api/3/search returns 410 Gone — always use /search/jql
jira.sh GET '/rest/api/3/search/jql?jql=<url-encoded>&maxResults=50&fields=key,summary,status,priority,duedate'

Common JQL

# My open tasks
assignee="Name" AND resolution=Unresolved ORDER BY priority DESC

# Unassigned
project=XX AND assignee=EMPTY AND resolution=Unresolved AND issuetype != Epic

# Overdue
project=XX AND resolution=Unresolved AND duedate < "YYYY-MM-DD"

# Closed yesterday
project=XX AND assignee="Name" AND status changed to Done during ("YYYY-MM-DD","YYYY-MM-DD")

# In Progress
assignee="Name" AND status="In Progress" ORDER BY project,priority DESC

Issue Operations

# Get issue
jira.sh GET '/rest/api/3/issue/XX-123?fields=key,summary,status,priority'

# Get transitions
jira.sh GET '/rest/api/3/issue/XX-123/transitions'

# Change status
jira.sh POST '/rest/api/3/issue/XX-123/transitions' '{"transition":{"id":"31"}}'

# Update fields (e.g. bump duedate)
jira.sh PUT '/rest/api/3/issue/XX-123' '{"fields":{"duedate":"2026-03-10"}}'

# Link issues
jira.sh POST '/rest/api/3/issueLink' '{"type":{"name":"Relates"},"inwardIssue":{"key":"XX-1"},"outwardIssue":{"key":"YY-2"}}'

6. Cron Patterns

Focus Auto-Linker

Finds a daily focus record and links top-priority tasks to it:

# Find today's focus record (summary = "DD.MM", assigned to user)
jira.sh GET '/rest/api/3/search/jql?jql=project=DN AND summary~"05.03" AND assignee="Name"&fields=key,issuelinks'

# Get top 3 priority tasks
jira.sh GET '/rest/api/3/search/jql?jql=assignee="Name" AND project=DC AND resolution=Unresolved ORDER BY priority DESC,duedate ASC&maxResults=3&fields=key,summary,priority,duedate'

# Link each task to focus record
jira.sh POST '/rest/api/3/issueLink' '{"type":{"name":"Relates"},"inwardIssue":{"key":"DN-43"},"outwardIssue":{"key":"DC-3057"}}'

Schedule as OpenClaw cron: isolated session, agentTurn, Mon-Fri at start of day.

Overdue Bumper

Checks end-of-day for unresolved tickets due today, bumps +1 day:

# Find overdue
jira.sh GET '/rest/api/3/search/jql?jql=assignee="Name" AND resolution=Unresolved AND duedate="2026-03-05"&fields=key,summary,duedate'

# Bump each
jira.sh PUT '/rest/api/3/issue/DC-3057' '{"fields":{"duedate":"2026-03-06"}}'

Schedule as OpenClaw cron: isolated session, agentTurn, Mon-Fri end of day.

7. TOOLS.md Reference

Add to your workspace TOOLS.md for quick agent recall:

## JIRA
- Script: `~/.openclaw/workspace/.secrets/jira.sh GET|POST|PUT <endpoint> [body]`
- Creds: `.secrets/jira.env` (pastewatch-protected)
- ⚠️ Use `/rest/api/3/search/jql` NEVER `/rest/api/3/search` (410 Gone)

Known Issues

• Team-managed (next-gen) projects: API returns total: 0 but issues are present — iterate issues array, ignore total
• HTTP/2 failures: Atlassian CDN sometimes drops HTTP/2 requests — --http1.1 fixes it
• PAT vs API token: Both work with Basic auth (email:token). Bearer auth fails with "Failed to parse Connect Session Auth Token"
