Not until you are happy, it makes me sad when Emacs makes people sad for whatever reason.

Yeah, I can't even start describing it, proly gonna make a video or something.
Like I would get the cursor on a plain text like "XYZ-34857" - it shows me the popup with the ticket description. If I ever would want to add the status - todo/done/etc., or assignee, or something else to the popup - that's a simple change. From there I can browse the ticket, I can convert the string to a url with the description - it's smart enough to recognize the mode I'm in and makes the proper markup. I can generate a branch name based on that ticket description, etc.
To clarify - anyone can do the same, I'm just delegating the task to go-jira - a cmd-line tool. You don't really need Emacs for that - it's doable in neovim and vscode and even in vanilla terminal. Yet the simplicity of making it work via Lisp is just unmatched experience. These days I would ask a model, it would build a prototype, I would iterate on it on the fly. It feels like playing a video game. I don't even blink - I see a problem - I'd start writing some Elisp in a scratch buffer. I keep hearing "I don't have time to tweak my config", but I'm not really tweaking anything - I'm just hacking solutions for the real problems that arise - I'm just being the definition of a programmer. And no need for sophisticated packages - my Jira requirements for now are satisfied with simple hacks in my config:
