CodeContext for Jira

Create better Jira tickets by linking them to the code that matters.


The Problem

Developers frequently receive tickets like this:

Title: Fix the login bug Description: (empty)

The developer then spends time asking questions, searching the codebase, or guessing where to start. This slows down development and frustrates everyone involved.

The Solution

CodeContext inverts the workflow. Instead of describing what to do, point to where it happens:

  1. Select an entry point — pick a repo, folder, or file via a visual browser
  2. AI analyzes the code — surfaces dependencies, recent changes, and related files
  3. AI assists the description — proposes a detailed description from your brief input
  4. Developer gets full context — opens the ticket and immediately knows where to start

Key Features

  • Repository Browser — navigate connected GitHub repositories directly from Jira
  • Entry Point Selection — link a specific file, folder, or repo to any ticket
  • Code Analysis — automatic analysis of dependencies, imports, and recent changes
  • AI-Powered Descriptions — generate detailed ticket descriptions from a brief note
  • Issue View Panel — developers see code context directly in the ticket

Quick Start

  1. Install CodeContext from the Atlassian Marketplace
  2. Connect a repository to your Jira project
  3. Create your first ticket with code context
