The original title is: "Atlassian ships AI suite for Jira: coding-agent handoff, spec planner, and Slack filing"

Short summary

Atlassian launched an AI suite for Jira that collapses the ticket-to-PR workflow by assigning work items directly to coding agents like Claude Code, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot. The suite includes a built-in Jira Coding Agent for paid plans, a Jira Planner that drafts specs from historical Jira and Confluence data, and Slack-based ticket filing via @Jira. Atlassian reports 44% higher agent task completion efficiency and 36% lower PR cycle time internally, though these are unverified vendor claims.

• •Jira tickets can now be assigned to Claude Code, Cursor, or GitHub Copilot; built-in Jira Coding Agent opens PRs without local setup
• •Jira Planner drafts Confluence specs from historical project data; @Jira in Slack creates tickets from thread context
• •Vendor-reported metrics: 44% task completion efficiency gain, 36% PR cycle time reduction — treat as unverified

Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.
