Orchestra: Dependency Graph for Jira

Jira knows which work items block which. It just will not show you. Links live as a list on each item, so the shape of a dependency chain only exists in someone's head, and the first time anyone sees it is when a release slips.

Orchestra draws it. Any JQL query becomes a graph, so the scope is exactly what you ask for, with presets for the common cases: open items in a project, everything in an epic, or your own open work. Issue links render as solid edges and parent and child structure as dashed, so the two relationship types never get confused. Every work item also gets a Dependencies panel showing what it blocks and what blocks it, without leaving the page.

Orchestra is read only by design. It requests read access to Jira work and app storage, nothing else, so it has no way to create, edit or link work items even by accident. Zero external network egress.
