+#  Jira plugin  #
+
+CLI support for JIRA interaction
+
+##  Description  ##
+
+This plugin provides command line tools for interacting with Atlassian's [JIRA](https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira) bug tracking software.
+
+The interaction is all done through the web. No local installation of JIRA is necessary.
+
+In this document, "JIRA" refers to the JIRA issue tracking server, and `jira` refers to the command this plugin supplies.
+
+##  Usage  ##
+
+This plugin supplies one command, `jira`, through which all its features are exposed. Most forms of this command open a JIRA page in your web browser.
+
+```
+jira            # performs the default action
+
+jira new        # opens a new issue
+jira dashboard  # opens your JIRA dashboard
+jira reported [username]  # queries for issues reported by a user
+jira assigned [username]  # queries for issues assigned to a user
+jira ABC-123    # opens an existing issue
+jira ABC-123 m  # opens an existing issue for adding a comment
+```
+
+#### Debugging usage  ####
+
+These calling forms are for developers' use, and may change at any time.
+
+```
+jira dumpconfig   # displays the effective configuration
+```
+
+##  Setup  ##
+
+The URL for your JIRA instance is set by `$JIRA_URL` or a `.jira_url` file.
+
+Add a `.jira-url` file in the base of your project. You can also set `$JIRA_URL` in your `~/.zshrc` or put a `.jira-url` in your home directory. A `.jira-url` in the current directory takes precedence, so you can make per-project customizations.
+
+The same goes with `.jira-prefix` and `$JIRA_PREFIX`. These control the prefix added to all issue IDs, which differentiates projects within a JIRA instance.
+
+For example:
+
+```
+cd to/my/project
+echo "https://jira.atlassian.com" >> .jira-url
+```
+
+(Note: The current implementation only looks in the current directory for `.jira-url` and `.jira-prefix`, not up the path, so if you are in a subdirectory of your project, it will fall back to your default JIRA URL. This will probably change in the future though.)
+
+###  Variables  ###
+
+* `$JIRA_URL` - Your JIRA instance's URL
+* `$JIRA_NAME` - Your JIRA username; used as the default user for `assigned`/`reported` searches
+* `$JIRA_PREFIX` - Prefix added to issue ID arguments
+* `$JIRA_RAPID_BOARD` - Set to `true` if you use Rapid Board
+* `$JIRA_DEFAULT_ACTION` - Action to do when `jira` is called with no arguments; defaults to "new"
+
+
+### Browser ###
+
+Your default web browser, as determined by how `open_command` handles `http://` URLs, is used for interacting with the JIRA instance. If you change your system's URL handler associations, it will change the browser that `jira` uses.
