### API gap coverage: Jira metadata + Confluence navigation gaps

## Summary

Gap analysis against Jira REST API v3 and Confluence REST API v2 identified tools missing from mcp-atlassian-extended that are NOT covered by base mcp-atlassian. Current tool count: 23 (17 Jira + 6 Confluence).

### feat: Add MCP prompts for multi-tool workflow templates

## Summary

Add MCP prompts — reusable message templates that clients surface as slash commands. The server currently has 23 tools and 15 resources but zero prompts. Prompts provide opinionated multi-tool workflows that guide users through common Jira and Confluence operations.

MCP prompts let server authors define structured, multi-step workflows that compose existing tools. Instead of users manually orchestrating tool calls for ticket creation with custom fields, sprint plannin

### MCP Builder Compliance: Immediate Fixes

## Context

Gap analysis against the Anthropic MCP Builder skill identified gaps affecting correctness, security, and quality of service.

- `issue_key`: `min_length=1, pattern=r"^[A-Z]+-\d+$"`

### feat: Add Homebrew tap support for mcp-atlassian-extended

## Summary

Add Homebrew tap support so users can install mcp-atlassian-extended via `brew install vish288/tap/mcp-atlassian-extended` instead of requiring `uvx` or `pip install`.

- Homebrew is the standard package manager on macOS — brew taps integrate with the existing developer workflow
- `uvx mcp-atlassian-extended` requires uv to be installed; `pip install` has global env pollution concerns
- A brew formula with proper dependency pinning provides reproducible installs
- Shar
