Why not connect to JIRA using an MCP? Would also be helpful to provide userid/password to demo instance or simply a button to log onto demo user account
1. I don't want to use Jira. I don't think this is complecated enough to justify it.
2. That might not have been a bad idea. There is a registration link and the app is fully functional. If you don't trust that though you can spin up a local with docker in 3 minutes. (check the readme)
