⚡ WHY CRISP FOR JIRA?
──────────────────────────────────────

Jira's default UI is built for everyone. Crisp is built for you. No menus buried five clicks deep. No page reloads. No waiting. Just your tickets, instantly.

• Open any ticket key instantly from the toolbar
• Keyboard-first: F2 to focus search, ↑↓ to navigate the list
• Full ticket details — description, comments, linked issues, parent hierarchy — rendered in a clean reading pane
• Ticket data cached locally so previously-viewed issues load in milliseconds, even offline
• Connects directly to Jira's REST API — no third-party proxy, no data leaves your browser except to Atlassian

──────────────────────────────────────
📋 ORGANISE WITH CUSTOM GROUPS
──────────────────────────────────────

Create named groups (e.g. "This Sprint", "On Hold", "Reviewing") and drag tickets between them. Unlike Jira's boards, your groups are personal and instant — no configuration, no board setup.

• Create, rename, reorder (drag), and delete groups
• Drag tickets between groups; drag groups to reorder the sidebar
• Bulk select: move or remove multiple tickets at once
• Group search: filter the ticket list by key or summary

──────────────────────────────────────
🔍 SMART SEARCH & JQL
──────────────────────────────────────

One search bar handles everything:

• Paste a ticket key → opens it directly (PROJ-123)
• Paste a Jira URL → opens the ticket or filter
• Type a filter ID → loads the filter results
• Type JQL → runs the query and creates a filter group
• Press F2 from anywhere to focus the search bar instantly

──────────────────────────────────────
🏷️ LABELS
──────────────────────────────────────

Add colour-coded labels to any ticket. The Labels tab auto-generates groups from your tags — no setup required. Click a label badge in the reading pane to filter across all your tickets by that label. Great for cross-project themes like "needs-design", "blocked", or "Q2".

──────────────────────────────────────
📝 FREEFORM NOTES CANVAS
──────────────────────────────────────

Each note is an infinite canvas (2400×2400px) with freely draggable blocks:

• Text blocks — click anywhere to create, drag to move
• Image blocks — paste from clipboard or drag-and-drop image files
• Mermaid diagram blocks — live-rendered diagrams inline on your canvas

Perfect for scratch space, architecture notes, meeting summaries, or anything you don't want to lose in a Jira comment.

──────────────────────────────────────
🗺️ MERMAID DIAGRAMS (MINDMAP TAB)
──────────────────────────────────────

A full Mermaid v11 diagram workspace with:

• Multiple named diagrams per workspace
• Live preview that updates as you type
• Pan and zoom the preview with scroll wheel or drag
• Copy diagram code with one click
• Supports all Mermaid types: flowchart, sequenceDiagram, classDiagram, erDiagram, gitgraph, gantt, pie, mindmap, and more

──────────────────────────────────────
📜 HISTORY TAB
──────────────────────────────────────

Every ticket you've opened is saved in a sortable, searchable history table. Columns: Key, Summary, Status, Assignee, Created, Last Viewed. Click any column header to sort. Drag column edges to resize. Click a row to reopen the ticket instantly.

──────────────────────────────────────
🔗 JIRA BEAM (POPUP)
──────────────────────────────────────

Click the toolbar icon while browsing Jira and the popup detects all ticket keys visible on the current page. Select any combination of tickets and beam them into a named group in Crisp — no manual searching.

──────────────────────────────────────
🔒 PRIVACY
──────────────────────────────────────

Crisp talks directly to your Jira instance using your own API token. No data is sent to any third-party server. No analytics. No tracking. Everything — tickets, notes, labels, history — is stored locally in your browser's localStorage.

Required permissions:
• tabs — to read the current tab URL for Jira Beam
• https://*.atlassian.net/* — direct API access to your Jira instance
