jiru
TUI for Jira and Confluence: browse sprints and boards, transition and edit issues, search with JQL, and read Confluence pages, without leaving the terminal.

about
i made jiru for two reasons: i couldn’t get along with Atlassian’s web UI, and i wanted to stay in the terminal. it covers sprint and kanban board views, a detailed issue view with comments rendered from Atlassian wiki markup, and inline actions to assign, transition, edit, link, and delete issues. JQL search comes with context-aware autocomplete and live user lookup, saveable filters, and a multi-step issue-creation wizard. Confluence browsing renders full ADF, including linking between Jira issues and Confluence documents. multiple Jira instances are supported via switchable profiles, with the API token stored in the OS keychain.
