get-work-item-attachments-tool

List the files attached to a work item, with short-lived download URLs the AI client can fetch directly.

Returns one row per file uploaded into the work item's attachments media collection, with a download URL that the calling client can fetch over plain HTTP. Useful when the work item description or a comment references an image or document and the AI client needs the file content itself, not just the file name.

URLs are short-lived: on cloud storage (R2 / MinIO / S3) they are pre-signed and require no further auth, on local-disk development environments they resolve to the auth-protected /media/{id} route — which only accepts a logged-in session, so dev URLs are mostly useful for the in-app UI and not for an external MCP client.

Inputs

Name	Type	Required	Description
`work_item_key`	string	yes	Issue key of the work item (e.g. `ACM-123`).
`url_lifetime_minutes`	integer	no	Lifetime in minutes for the signed URLs, 1–60. Default 15. Ignored on local-disk dev environments.

Permissions

project_management::view_backlog.
