Get all fix versions for a specific Jira project.
AI agents call get_project_versions to retrieve information from MCP Atlassian without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and retrieves version metadata from a Jira project without altering state, executing operations, or affecting financial systems. It is a straightforward read operation on existing project data, consistent with similar sibling tools like 'get_all_projects' and 'get_board_issues'.
