If you want scripts that run "inside" your Jira Cloud instance you would need an ad-on.

Other external options would include creating your own add-on or using the REST API. Your own cloud add-on means hosting it on the internet. The REST API can run anywhere, including your own PC, but it cannot be triggered by actions that take place inside Jira.
