For example, if your git brach includes the issue reference, you could write a shell function to deal with it automatically.

If your git branch looks like feat/JIRA-234-my-awesome-feature , you can write a bash function like this

Add this to your ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc

# jira time function
# ex: jt 1h   (to add one hour to ticket)
function jt() {
  # extract jira ticket from branch and add worklog time
  jicli --time $1 --issue $(git branch --show-current --no-color | grep  -Po '[A-Z]+-[0-9]+')
}

Then, use it like this:

# add 1 day to issue JIRA-234
jt 1d
