Why use this

Unified Jira + Confluence MCP server with typed models and robust tooling
Works with Cloud and Server/Data Center (PAT, OAuth, basic auth)
Read-only mode for safer production usage
Streamable HTTP and SSE transports for multi-user setups

Quick Start

1. Get your API token

Go to https://id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/security/api-tokens and create a token.

For Server/Data Center, use a Personal Access Token instead. See Authentication.

2. Configure your IDE

Add to your Claude Desktop or Cursor MCP configuration:

{ "mcpServers": { "mcp-atlassian": { "command": "uvx", "args": ["mcp-atlassian"], "env": { "JIRA_URL": "https://your-company.atlassian.net", "JIRA_USERNAME": "your.email@company.com", "JIRA_API_TOKEN": "your_api_token", "CONFLUENCE_URL": "https://your-company.atlassian.net/wiki", "CONFLUENCE_USERNAME": "your.email@company.com", "CONFLUENCE_API_TOKEN": "your_api_token" } } } }

Python 3.14 not yet supported. Use ["--python=3.12", "mcp-atlassian"] as args if needed.

Server/Data Center users: Use JIRA_PERSONAL_TOKEN instead of JIRA_USERNAME + JIRA_API_TOKEN. See Authentication for details.

3. Start using

Ask your AI assistant to:

"Find issues assigned to me in PROJ project"
"Search Confluence for onboarding docs"
"Create a bug ticket for the login issue"
"Update the status of PROJ-123 to Done"

On-Prem/Data Center notes

PAT auth: set JIRA_PERSONAL_TOKEN and CONFLUENCE_PERSONAL_TOKEN
SSL: set JIRA_SSL_VERIFY=false or CONFLUENCE_SSL_VERIFY=false only when required
Client certs: JIRA_CLIENT_CERT / JIRA_CLIENT_KEY and CONFLUENCE_CLIENT_CERT / CONFLUENCE_CLIENT_KEY
