Turn new Jira tickets into AI coding sessions automatically

New Jira tickets automatically kick off an AI coding session and post links and results back to the ticket.

How the work actually flows

A straight line.

The problem it solves

Your team files bugs and small tasks in Jira, but someone still has to notice the ticket, open the codebase, and start writing the fix. Simple tickets sit in the backlog longer than they should.

Who it fits

Software teams that track work in Jira and want routine tickets started automatically.

How it works

  1. A new Jira ticket is created
  2. The ticket summary and description are turned into a coding task
  3. An AI coding agent works on the task in an isolated cloud environment
  4. The result and links to continue the session are posted back to Jira
What you get

Tickets that already have a starting draft

Your routine Jira tickets get a head start with an AI coding session already working and posting results back.

What you get

A Jira comment with the AI's progress and links to open or resume the coding session.

What you need

A Jira Cloud account, a CloudCLI account with an API key, and an AI provider key such as Anthropic.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
