BMAtlassian¶
Atlassian-native agentic development with the BMAD method.
BMAtlassian brings 9 AI agent personas to Jira and Confluence. Instead of writing artefacts to local files, agents create and manage Jira issues (Epics, Stories, Subtasks) and Confluence pages (PRDs, architecture docs, UX designs) via Atlassian MCP tools.
What It Does¶
BMAtlassian guides your project through a structured 4-phase workflow:
- Analysis -- Analyst brainstorms ideas, creates product briefs and research on Confluence
- Planning -- PM creates PRDs and Epics/Stories in Jira; UX Designer creates design docs
- Solutioning -- Architect creates architecture decisions; PM validates implementation readiness
- Implementation -- SM manages sprints; Dev implements code; QA reviews and tests via Jira
An automated orchestrator polls Jira via JQL to determine which agent should work next, enabling autonomous project progression.
Key Features¶
- 32 slash commands -- type
/bmadin Claude Code and autocomplete to any workflow - 9 agent personas -- each with distinct capabilities, communication styles, and workflows
- Jira-native tracking -- all status transitions, comments, and labels managed via MCP tools
- Confluence output -- PRDs, architecture docs, research reports, and retrospectives
- Automated orchestrator -- polls Jira state and dispatches agents autonomously
- Optional Git/GitHub integration -- branches, commits, and PRs aligned with Jira stories
- Fault-tolerant -- graceful fallbacks for missing tools, failed API calls, and partial setups
- Dual MCP support -- works with the standalone mcp-atlassian server or the Claude Code plugin
