# mk:jira-relationships

Forks to the `jira-relationships` agent. Link direction matters — `A blocks B` ≠ `B blocks A`. The agent confirms direction when ambiguous.

## Triggers

- "link PROJ-123 blocks PROJ-456"
- "what blocks PROJ-123?"
- "what does PROJ-123 depend on?"
- "clone PROJ-123 with new summary 'Follow-up'"
- "unlink PROJ-123 from PROJ-456"

## Examples

- Direct link: "link PROJ-123 as blocked-by PROJ-100"
- Blocker query: "show me everything blocking PROJ-123"
- Bulk-link via JQL: "link all PROJ stories tagged 'epic-x' as part of EPIC-1" (agent will run a dry-run first)

- Domain refs:

- Peer leaves: `mk:jira-bulk` (bulk-link via JQL — dry-run first), `mk:jira-agile` (epic-issue is via `agile epic add`, NOT here), `mk:jira-search` (find candidate issues via JQL before linking)
