Integration with Jira

I would like to use Jira to assign a task to a Cursor Background agent directly. I’ve tried doing this through Zapier and using their Slack integration to send a message to Slack since that is an officially supported integration, but that does not work.

I would like my workflow to be this:

  • Product manager creates a user story in Jira
  • Engineer takes story and adds technical details
  • Engineer assigns the story to Cursor in Jira
  • Cursor background agent picks up the story and works it and creates a draft PR
  • Engineer reviews, pair programs with Cursor and eventually merges PR.

If the Zapier to Slack message worked I would be able to do this, but an official Jira integration would be even better

Pretty much needed, and background agents would automatically grab issues on it to implement code and move the status of the ticket once merged or ready to test.
