Sync your .plan file with Jira Cloud

Project description

plajira

Sync your .plan file with Jira Cloud.

plajira is a command-line tool that bridges your personal .plan file with Jira, keeping your task tracking in sync without leaving your editor.

Features

  • Zero intrusion: Your .plan file is never modified by plajira
  • Git-aware: Only syncs items from commits that have been pushed
  • Timestamp-aware: Detects conflicts when Jira was updated more recently
  • Interactive: Every action requires confirmation
  • Portable: Python standard library only (no external dependencies)

Installation

pip install plajira

Or install from source:

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/plajira.git
cd plajira
pip install -e .

Quick Start

  1. Initialize plajira in a directory containing your .plan file:
plajira init
  1. Copy .env.example to .env and add your Jira credentials:
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your Jira URL, email, and API token
  1. Run your first sync:
plajira sync

Commands

plajira init

Initialize plajira configuration in the current directory.

plajira status

Preview what would happen on sync, without making changes.

$ plajira status

Checking .plan for duplicate lines... OK
Parsing .plan... 34 items
Checking git status... 3 pushed, 1 unpushed commit

New items:
   "research spec" [SUSPECTED DUPLICATE]
   "baz spreadsheet"

Status changes:
   CSD-42 "implement foobar": In Progress  Done

plajira sync

Synchronize your .plan with Jira.

$ plajira sync

New item: "implement foobar"
[y] Create new Jira issue
[n] Not now
[d] Duplicate  link to existing
[s] Skip

Choice [y/n/d/s]: y

✓ Created CSD-72 "implement foobar"

plajira link <text> <jira-key>

Manually link a .plan line to an existing Jira issue.

$ plajira link "implement foobar" CSD-42
✓ Linked.

plajira unlink <text>

Remove tracking for a line (doesn't affect Jira).

plajira list

Show all tracked items and skip list.

plajira unskip <text>

Remove a line from the skip list.

Configuration

Configuration is stored in .plajira (YAML format). Credentials are in .env.

.env

JIRA_URL=https://your-domain.atlassian.net
JIRA_EMAIL=your-email@example.com
JIRA_TOKEN=your-api-token

Get your API token from: https://id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/security/api-tokens

.plajira

The configuration file has two sections:

  1. config (user-editable): Jira settings, marker mappings, keywords
  2. state (managed by plajira): Tracked items and skip list

Duplicate Detection

plajira automatically detects suspected duplicates using:

  • Continuation keywords ("continue", "finish", etc.)
  • Word overlap (≥50% of significant words)
  • Fuzzy matching (Levenshtein similarity ≥60%)

When a suspected duplicate is found, you can link it to an existing item instead of creating a new Jira issue.

Conflict Resolution

If someone else updates a Jira issue after you changed your .plan, plajira detects the conflict:

⚠️  CONFLICT: "implement foo" (CSD-42)

Your .plan shows: * (Done)
  Changed: 2026-01-08 14:32

Jira shows: Blocked
  Changed: 2026-01-08 16:45

Options:
  [s] Skip this item (recommended)
  [v] View Jira issue in browser
  [o] Override: force .plan status to Jira

Requirements

  • Python 3.8+
  • Git repository with a remote tracking branch
  • Jira Cloud account with API access
