Azure DevOps Work Items Plugin

A Claude Code plugin for managing Azure DevOps work items, boards, backlogs, and sprints using the Azure CLI (az devops).

Why This Plugin?

This plugin uses the official Azure CLI with the azure-devops extension instead of the Microsoft MCP server, which has known stability issues. The Azure CLI provides a reliable, well-documented interface to Azure DevOps APIs.

Prerequisites

1. Azure CLI

Install the Azure CLI:

2. Azure DevOps Extension

Install the Azure DevOps extension for Azure CLI:

az extension add --name azure-devops

3. Authentication

Log in to Azure:

az login

Or use a Personal Access Token (PAT):

az devops login

4. Configure Defaults

Set your default organization and project:

az devops configure --defaults organization=https://dev.azure.com/YOUR_ORG project=YOUR_PROJECT

Verify configuration:

az devops configure --list

  • Create and update work items
  • Manage boards and backlogs
  • Handle sprints and capacity
  • Work with areas and iterations

Start the agent with:

/agent ado-work-items

Examples

Query My Open Tasks

/ado:items:query

Then ask for: "Show me all tasks assigned to me that are not done"

Create a Bug

/ado:items:create

Then provide: Type "Bug", Title "Login button not responding", Priority 1

View Sprint Capacity

/ado:sprints:capacity

Then specify the team and sprint iteration.

Troubleshooting

Check Status

Run /ado:status to verify:

  • Azure CLI is installed
  • Azure DevOps extension is present
  • Default organization and project are configured
  • Connectivity to Azure DevOps is working

Common Issues

1. "az: command not found" - Azure CLI is not installed or not in PATH 2. "The following extension is not installed: azure-devops" - Run az extension add --name azure-devops 3. "Please run 'az login' to setup account" - Run az login to authenticate 4. "TF401019: The project does not exist" - Check your project name is correct (case-sensitive) 5. "TF400813: Resource not available" - Verify organization URL format is https://dev.azure.com/orgname

Re-authenticate

az account clear
az login
az devops configure --defaults organization=https://dev.azure.com/YOUR_ORG project=YOUR_PROJECT
