Environment variables

• JIRA_URL required Base URL of the Jira Data Center instance
• JIRA_USER_TOKEN required secret Personal Access Token for standard operations
• JIRA_ADMIN_TOKEN secret Personal Access Token for elevated/admin operations (optional)
• JIRA_TIMEOUT_MS Timeout in milliseconds for every Jira API call. Defaults to 30000 (30s) when unset or blank; raise it if your instance is slow.
• ALCES_TOOL_GROUPS Comma-separated tool domains to pre-activate at startup instead of the core-issues default (core-issues, jsm-service-desk, assets, issue-detail, agile, projects, filters-personal-settings, users-groups-permissions, admin). Unknown names are warned about on stderr and ignored.
• ALCES_TOKEN_ESCALATION_DOMAINS Comma-separated tool domains allowed to substitute JIRA_ADMIN_TOKEN via token escalation. Empty by default — no tool may escalate until its domain is listed here.
• JIRA_SESSION_USERNAME Optional Jira DC account username (not a PAT), paired with JIRA_SESSION_PASSWORD, enabling session-cookie auth for the legacy avatar upload/crop/finalize tools. Must be the same account as JIRA_USER_TOKEN and must not be an administrator: those tools authenticate as this account rather than the token.
• JIRA_SESSION_PASSWORD secret Password for JIRA_SESSION_USERNAME. Only used to establish a session cookie for the legacy avatar upload/crop/finalize tools.
