Documentation
Full READMEAtlassian Forge Skills
Atlassian Forge lets you build and deploy apps directly on the Atlassian platform - issue panels, Confluence macros, dashboard gadgets, and more. The Forge Skills Plugin bundles several Forge-focused skills plus MCP-backed tooling so your agent can scaffold apps, review them before deploy, debug production issues, and stay current on Forge APIs and the Atlassian Design System.
What's included
Skills
The plugin ships multiple skills under skills/, each with a SKILL.md the host can load:
Forge Onboarding (skills/forge-onboarding/) guides a first-time Forge builder through one continuous run: scaffold a Rovo Agent, customize it into Forge Guru — an agent that answers Forge questions from the official docs — then deploy and install it on their test site. One authorization gate up front, no mid-build prompts. Use it for "my first Forge app", "my first Rovo Agent", or to resume the tutorial on an existing developer site.
Forge App Builder (skills/forge-app-builder/) guides scaffolding through production: forge create, dev spaces and templates, deploy and install, module selection, cross-product scopes, and common CLI or permission issues.
Forge App Review (skills/forge-app-review/) supports pre-deploy review and audits: security, architecture, cost and invocation efficiency, performance, and trigger or scheduling waste.
Forge Cost Optimizer (skills/forge-cost-optimizer/) helps reduce Forge platform consumption across invocations, storage, logs, memory, triggers, API calls, and frontend/backend boundaries.
Forge Debugger (skills/forge-debugger/) supports systematic troubleshooting when something breaks: forge / deploy errors, resolver failures, blank or missing UI, scopes and permissions, and apps that “stopped working” in Jira or Confluence.
Forge Connector (skills/forge-connector/) guides building graph:connector apps that ingest external data into Atlassian's Teamwork Graph, making it searchable in Rovo Search and surfaced in Rovo Chat.
Forge Security Review (skills/forge-security-review/) performs white-box Forge app security audits with rule-driven checks for authz, injection, tenant isolation, secrets handling, egress/remotes, web triggers, and optional static-analysis workflows.
Forge MCP Server
Gives your agent access to up-to-date Forge documentation, template registries, module configuration, manifest syntax, and UI Kit/backend API guides -- so its knowledge stays current rather than relying on training data.
