Jira MCP Server (Self-Hosted Jira + PAT)

1. Configure env

Create a .env file:

JIRA_BASE_URL=https://jira.yourcompany.local
JIRA_PAT=your_personal_access_token

Related MCP server: atlassian-mcp

2. Run locally (dev)

set -a; source .env; set +a; npm start

3. Build and install server to a chosen folder

npm run build -- --target:C:\tools\mcp

This installs to:

C:\tools\mcp\jira-mcp-server

4. Build + also install Copilot MCP client config

npm run build:copilot -- --target:C:\tools\mcp

By default this also updates:

%USERPROFILE%\.copilot\mcp-config.json

You can choose a different client config file:

npm run build:copilot -- --target:C:\tools\mcp --client-config:C:\temp\mcp-config.json

5. What gets added to Copilot config

The installer writes/updates an MCP server named jira-self-hosted pointing to:

<target>\jira-mcp-server\dist\jira-mcp-server.js

If JIRA_BASE_URL and JIRA_PAT are set in your shell while building, they are copied into that MCP entry's env block.
