  • Jira Cloud account with API token

  • Confluence Cloud account with API token

  • OpenAI API key (GPT-4o access recommended)

  • Claude Desktop or Claude Code


Installation

1. Clone the repository

git clone <your-repo-url>
cd qa-mcp

2. Create a virtual environment

python -m venv .venv

# Windows
.venv\Scripts\activate

# macOS / Linux
source .venv/bin/activate

3. Install dependencies

pip install -r requirements.txt

4. Configure environment variables

cp .env.example .env

Edit .env with your credentials:

JIRA_URL=https://your-domain.atlassian.net
JIRA_EMAIL=your-email@example.com
JIRA_API_TOKEN=your-jira-api-token

CONFLUENCE_URL=https://your-domain.atlassian.net
CONFLUENCE_EMAIL=your-email@example.com
CONFLUENCE_API_TOKEN=your-confluence-api-token

OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-your-openai-api-key

How to get API tokens:


Running the Server

Standalone test (stdio mode)

python server.py

Development with MCP Inspector

mcp dev server.py

Claude Desktop Configuration

Add to your Claude Desktop config file:

Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "qa-assistant": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["C:\\full\\path\\to\\qa-mcp\\server.py"],
      "env": {
        "JIRA_URL": "https://your-domain.atlassian.net",
        "JIRA_EMAIL": "your-email@example.com",
        "JIRA_API_TOKEN": "your-jira-api-token",
        "CONFLUENCE_URL": "https://your-domain.atlassian.net",
        "CONFLUENCE_EMAIL": "your-email@example.com",
        "CONFLUENCE_API_TOKEN": "your-confluence-api-token",
        "OPENAI_API_KEY": "sk-your-openai-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Tip: Use the full absolute path to server.py. On Windows use double backslashes or forward slashes.

After saving, restart Claude Desktop.


Claude Code Configuration

Add to your project's .mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "qa-assistant": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["server.py"],
      "cwd": "C:\\full\\path\\to\\qa-mcp"
    }
  }
}

Or run directly:

claude mcp add qa-assistant python server.py

Troubleshooting

Problem

Solution

EnvironmentError: Missing Jira credentials

Check that .env is in the qa-mcp/ directory and all three Jira vars are set

AuthError from Jira/Confluence

Verify email + API token; the token is NOT your password

openai.AuthenticationError

Check OPENAI_API_KEY starts with sk-

Tool not appearing in Claude

Restart Claude Desktop after editing claude_desktop_config.json

ModuleNotFoundError

Ensure virtual environment is activated when running server.py


Notes

  • All AI generation uses GPT-4o by default. Override with OPENAI_MODEL=gpt-4o-mini for lower cost.

  • Jira and Confluence use the same Atlassian API token — same credentials work for both.

  • The server reads .env from its own directory regardless of where you invoke it.
