Clawhub Jira Pat Skill

AdvisoryAudited by Static analysis on Apr 30, 2026.

Overview

No suspicious patterns detected.

Findings (0)

Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.

What this means

The agent can access Jira as allowed by the PAT, including reading and changing issues if the token has those permissions.

Why it was flagged

The skill relies on a Jira Personal Access Token, so actions taken through the skill inherit the permissions granted to that token.

Skill content
Create a new token with appropriate permissions ... Store it in environment variable `JIRA_PAT`
Recommendation

Use a least-privilege PAT, keep it out of logs and shared shells, and revoke or rotate it if it is no longer needed.

What this means

If used incorrectly, the agent could comment on, transition, update, or create Jira issues in an enterprise project.

Why it was flagged

The skill documents Jira API write operations that can change issue state, fields, comments, or create new issues. This is aligned with the stated purpose but is higher impact than read-only access.

Skill content
### Transition (Change Status) ... curl -s -X POST ... ### Update Issue Fields ... curl -s -X PUT ... ### Create an Issue
Recommendation

Require user confirmation for write operations and verify the issue key, transition ID, and payload before running POST or PUT commands.

What this means

A user relying only on metadata may not realize the skill needs a Jira token and local command-line tools until they read the skill instructions.

Why it was flagged

The supplied metadata does not declare the actual runtime requirements and credential use that SKILL.md and scripts/jira-pat.sh disclose: JIRA_PAT, JIRA_URL, curl, and jq.

Skill content
Required binaries (all must exist): none ... Required env vars: none ... Primary credential: none
Recommendation

Update metadata to declare JIRA_PAT, JIRA_URL, curl, and jq so users and platforms can assess requirements before installation.
