projects.createJiraProject · Gojira MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What projects.createJiraProject does on Gojira

AI agents use projects.createJiraProject to create or update resources in Gojira — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Gojira environment.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why projects.createJiraProject needs a policy

Creating a Jira project adds new data to the system and can typically be reversed by deleting the project. This is a Write operation—data modification with side effects but not permanence. The description appears truncated ('Destructive — call without') but the verb 'Create' is clear.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'projects.createJiraProject' and description states 'Create a Jira project.' Creation is a reversible modification of data (projects can be deleted), not an irreversible destruction.
