What it does

Atlassian Jira Sync is an agent skill from itseffi/agentic-os. Sync Jira issues with local tasks. Use during daily planning or when user asks about Jira issues.

Its SKILL.md is about 520 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`).

It sits in Productivity & Automation, covering Calendar and scheduling. It works with Jira. The repository describes itself as: Agentic personal OS to automate high-leverage workflows with Codex, Claude Code, Pi, OpenClaw and other coding agents/ runtime platforms. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Asks about Jira issues
  • Tasks that involve Calendar and scheduling

Example prompts

  • “/atlassian-jira-sync”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Fetch Assigned Issues
  2. Compare with Local Tasks
  3. Present Summary
  4. Sync Options
  5. Create Local Tasks

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e54d0ac. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are yaml).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Atlassian Jira Sync loads about 515 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 29 tokens; SKILL.md has 203 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~29
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~515

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Step 3: Present Summary
Jira Issues (8 active):
