## 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](https://mcp-atlassian.soomiles.com/docs/authentication).

### 2. Configure Your IDE

Add to your Claude Desktop or Cursor MCP configuration:

```json
{
  "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"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

> **Server/Data Center users**: Use `JIRA_PERSONAL_TOKEN` instead of `JIRA_USERNAME` + `JIRA_API_TOKEN`. See [Authentication](https://mcp-atlassian.soomiles.com/docs/authentication) for details.

#### Autohand Code

Use the same `uvx` server with your Atlassian credentials:

```bash
autohand mcp add 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 \
  uvx mcp-atlassian
```

Add `--scope project` after `add` to keep the configuration in the current
project. See [Autohand Code](https://github.com/autohandai/code-cli/) for current
installation and CLI 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"**
