List issue types available in a Jira project.
AI agents call list_jira_issue_types_for_project to retrieve information from DCI MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves configuration metadata from Jira (the list of issue types for a project). It performs no writes, deletes, executions, or side effects—it only queries and returns information. This is a straightforward Read category action with low severity since it cannot cause harm or unintended consequences if invoked by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_jira_issue_types_for_project' and description 'List issue types available in a Jira project' indicate a query/retrieval operation that returns metadata about available issue types without modifying any data.
