More ways to Build on Forge: Container Services is Now in Preview
Today, we’re excited to announce a big milestone for Forge container services: the official Preview release. Apps using containerised services can now be deployed to production environments, published on the Atlassian marketplace, and distributed to customers. Forge container services does what it says on the tin—you can run container images directly on Forge infrastructure as […]
How We Used Agentic Pipelines to Swarm Documentation
A feature is not really shipped when just the code lands in production. It is shipped only when the documentation tells the same story. For our DevAI team, every Rovo Dev CLI change kicked off a familiar chain reaction. Find the affected documentation, update the Markdown and configuration, deploy the docs, check the generated pages […]
Getting Ready for Connect End of Support
Note: This post applies to Connect apps for Jira and Confluence. Bitbucket Connect end of support information can be found here. Since we announced Connect end of support a year and a half ago, the app ecosystem has undergone a remarkable transition. Over 95% of paid app seats have been migrated to Forge, moving the […]
Forge LLMs API is now GA: Here’s how you can build AI-native apps on Atlassian
Today, we’re announcing the Forge LLMs API is now generally available for all developers. Large language models are now everywhere—embedded in the apps we use every day. They provide the intelligence that reduces manual effort, surfaces information, and helps us work more effectively. The Forge LLMs API lets any developer bring that intelligence directly into […]
From prompts to orchestration: Scale AI coding agent impact with Jira Automation
Jira Automation now lets you trigger GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or Claude as a step in any rule. Set conditions, hand off work to agents automatically.
Every agent. Every state. Full visibility in Jira.
See what’s stuck, what’s shipping, and what’s complete. All in one place. Starting today, every software team working in Jira can get visibility into agents they’re running across their spaces and repos in a single view, grouped by what needs attention first. Validating agent output at scale Engineering orgs are rapidly scaling from working manually […]
Fix Bugs Faster with Atlassian Rovo MCP
Most new tools get introduced through a feature list. I’d rather start with a workflow. That’s how I approached the new Rovo MCP server. Instead of talking about it abstractly, I wanted to test it in a workflow developers hit all the time: fixing a bug. The question I wanted to answer was simple: can […]
How We Brought Enterprise-Managed Authorization to Rovo MCP with XAA and ID-JAG
We recently added support for Enterprise-Managed Authorization in Atlassian Rovo MCP server using Cross-App Access (XAA) and the Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant (ID-JAG). In practical terms, this means an admin can centrally authorize MCP access for approved clients like Claude, and when users sign in, Rovo MCP can already be connected and ready to […]
Spec-driven AI Migration: How Nearly 2 Quarters of Work Was Completed in One Week
A small team migrated 100+ GraphQL fetchers by turning Jira tickets into behavioral specs that AI agents could execute against. We recently migrated 100+ GraphQL fetchers from a legacy gateway service to a newer platform layer. We managed to do this with 5 developers completing around 2 quarters worth of work in a week, splitting […]
Production-grade ingestion with orchestration
Make your Forge connector production-ready with orchestration — recurring schedules, hierarchical fan-out, failure classification, and resilient ingestion. This is Part 2 of a two-part series on building Teamwork Graph Connectors. Part 1 covered the architecture, module design, and connection lifecycle. This post dives into orchestration — the scheduling, fan-out, and failure handling layer that makes […]
Why AI Agents Drift Mid-Task and How a Multi-Agent System Fixes It
How specialist agent orchestration anchored to Jira keeps complex coding tasks on spec. You have probably felt this. You hand a capable AI agent a real piece of work, a proper spec with edge cases and acceptance criteria, and for a few minutes it is sharp. Then it slips, it forgets a decision it made […]
Deeplink to your AI coding tool from Jira
Brief your local coding agent with one click from Jira. No copy-paste, no context lost.
Improving Code Reviewer with Atlassian PR Context
Code Reviewer already knew the rules. We gave it history. Rovo Dev Code Reviewer catches PR issues related to code bug, code design, code readability, maintenance, testing, etc. It works well. But we saw an opportunity to take it further: to give it something closer to the institutional memory that experienced reviewers build over time, […]
Build AI-powered Forge apps with Atlassian-hosted LLMs
LLMs have become a core tool in every app developer’s stack, powering features that feel almost magical. Users can query data with natural language, summarize long issue threads, and get smart, contextual suggestions, in an instant. Just a few years ago, these features would have been cumbersome or even impossible for developers to build. AI […]
How We Cut up to 80% of Engineering “Chores” Using AI Agents in Jira
Flaky tests and stale feature flags drain engineering time quietly. Here is how Atlassian’s engineering team uses AI agents in Jira to automate both.
