Get comments for a Jira issue with pagination support. Returns comments with pagination metadata to help navigate through large comment lists.
AI agents call get_comments to retrieve information from Raalarcon Jira without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves existing comments from a Jira issue without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any actions. It has no blast radius if misused by an AI agent—the worst outcome would be unauthorized information disclosure of comments already in the system. The pagination support is a read-only feature. Classified as Read with low severity.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get comments for a Jira issue' — a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects. The word 'Get' and 'Returns comments' clearly indicate data retrieval only.
