If you're managing Jenkins from the command line, this wraps the jk CLI tool so Claude can help you script job creation, trigger builds, tail logs, and wrangle config.xml files without switching to the web UI. It's especially helpful for multibranch pipelines where you need to create jobs from repo templates, patch Jenkinsfile paths, or rescan branches. The skill checks for jk installation first and handles auth contexts, so you can work across multiple controllers. One thing to know: it assumes you've already got a Jenkins API token set up, and for SSO setups you'll need to grab that token from the web UI first.

Jenkins CLI
Use jk for Jenkins reads and changes. Inspect jk --help or a subcommand's
help when syntax is uncertain. Check installation or version only when the
command is unavailable or a requested feature has a known minimum version.
Route the task
Read only the rule that matches the request:
- Authentication and SSO: rules/auth.md
- Saved controllers and context selection: rules/context.md
- Jobs, folders, configuration, and scans: rules/job.md
- Runs, parameters, reruns, and logs: rules/run.md
- Artifacts: rules/artifact.md
- Test reports: rules/test.md
- Credentials: rules/cred.md
- Nodes: rules/node.md
- Queue: rules/queue.md
- Plugins: rules/plugin.md
- Other administrative commands: rules/other.md
For exact flags and output modes, search references/commands.md for the subcommand.
