jira transition

Transition a Jira Issue to a different status via an interactive selection menu. Optionally reassign the issue after transitioning.

Usage

fns-cli jira transition [issue-key]

Arguments

Argument	Description
issue-key	Optional. The Jira issue key (e.g. FCLI-5712 or just 5712). If omitted, inferred from the current git branch name.

Flags

Flag	Description
-h, --help	Show help

How it works

1. Resolves the issue key (from argument or current branch name).
2. Displays the current issue summary.
3. Fetches all available transitions for the issue.
4. Presents an interactive list to select the new status.
5. Applies the transition and displays the updated issue.
6. Prompts whether to reassign the issue — if confirmed, shows an interactive user selection.

Tips

• If your branch name follows the pattern PROJECT-1234-description, the issue key is inferred automatically — no argument needed.
• You can pass just the numeric ID (e.g. 5712) and the default project key from config will be used.
• The available transitions depend on the issue's current status and your Jira workflow configuration.
