Jira MCP Server

redhat-ai-tools/jira-mcp

For use with Cursor to provide access to Jira.

Note

This project is experimental and was initially created as a learning exercise. Be aware there are more capable and mature Jira MCP solutions available, such as sooperset/mcp-atlassian, and Atlassian's own MCP Server.

Example configuration file for Cursor (probably in ~/.cursor/mcp.json):

{ "mcpServers": { "jira-mcp": { "command": "/some/path/jira-mcp/server.sh", "description": "A simple MCP server to query Jira issues" } } }

Getting started

  • Run make setup to set up the python environment
  • (Optional) Run source venv/bin/activate to set the python path
  • Got to your Jira profile page and create a personal access token, for example here
  • Copy .env.example to .env, add your token to that file, and update the url as required
  • Go to "Tools & Integrations" in the Cursor settings and paste in the JSON from above. Adjust the command path as appropriate.
  • If it's working you should see a green indicator and "1 tools enabled"
  • You should then be able to refer to Jiras in the chat panel, e.g. "What is jira EC-1324 about"
