Overview

Once your Jira account is connected to CodeAnt AI, you can create actionable tickets (bugs, epics, tasks, etc.) straight from any security finding, code‑quality insight, or anti‑pattern flagged in your project. This keeps your engineering workflow in Jira—no copy‑and‑paste, no context‑switching.
Prerequisite Complete the Setup guide first so CodeAnt AI can authenticate against your Jira workspace.
