The tool offers 5 free audits per day and a Premium Sprint Auditor tier with exact 0–100 per-ticket risk scores and unlimited audits, and requires Claude Desktop, Node.js v18 or higher, and a Jira Cloud account with API access. Status detection relies on Jira's language-independent status categories rather than English text matching, which the developer says makes it work with workflows named in any language, including English and Russian.", "body_md": "Jira AI Auditor\n\nFind the problems your Jira dashboard doesn't show you.\n\nAn MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that brings advanced project and sprint health auditing directly into Claude Desktop. Instantly detect overdue tasks, unassigned work, and reopened issues — with a proportional health score, risk scoring, and sprint-level analysis.\n\nWhy this tool\n\nMost Jira integrations either give you full read/write access with no analysis, or a dashboard full of charts you still have to interpret yourself. This tool is different: it reads your project and tells you, in plain language, what's actually wrong — overdue tickets, unowned work, tasks that were marked done and quietly reopened.\n\nIt's also one of the few Jira tools that works correctly regardless of what language your team's workflow uses. Status detection is based on Jira's own language-independent status categories, not English text matching — so it works the same whether your statuses are named \"Done\", \"Готово\", or anything else.\n\nFeatures 🆓 Free Project Health Score — proportional 0–100 score based on overdue, unassigned, and reopened work Overdue & Unassigned Detection — see exactly which tickets need attention Reopened Issue Detection — catches tickets marked Done and later reopened, using changelog history (not just current status) Risk Tags — each ticket flagged Low / Medium / High risk Team Workload View — how tasks are distributed across your team Works with any Jira language — tested with English and Russian workflows 5 free audits per day 💎 Premium Sprint Auditor (audit_sprint) — story points, completion rate, sprint-level risk assessment Exact Risk Scores — precise 0–100 score per ticket instead of a Low/Medium/High tag, factoring in priority, overdue duration, blocked status, and more Unlimited audits — no daily limit More advanced auditing features are on the roadmap Requirements Claude Desktop Node.js v18 or higher A Jira Cloud account with API access Installation\n\n1.
