Development

Install dependencies:

npm install

npm run build

For development with auto-rebuild:

npm run watch

Installation

To use with Claude Desktop, add the server config:

On MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json On Windows: %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{ "mcpServers": { "Jira communication server": { "command": "node", "args": [ "/PATH_TO_THE_PROJECT/build/index.js" ], "env": { "JIRA_URL": "https://XXXXXXXX.atlassian.net", "JIRA_API_MAIL": "Your email", "JIRA_API_KEY": "KEY_FROM : https://id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/security/api-tokens" } } } }

Debugging

Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, debugging can be challenging. We recommend using the MCP Inspector, which is available as a package script:

npm run inspector

The Inspector will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser.

The server can be hosted and run remotely because it primarily relies on remote services or has no dependency on the local environment.
